Pfff, T-80s? Obsolete when produced, and now used only for training and for selling to ex-Soviet republics you later want to crush, like Georgia. (I have a model waiting to be built, heh.)

If you ever want to know about where stuff goes on tanks, please don't hesitate to ask, though... I have tons of power nerdity resources... 8)

I also really like how your insurgent trucks came out-- they look nicely weathered, and like they've been around a bit. If you've ever seen insurgent trucks, they're all Toyota Hi-Luxes-- seriously, they're EVERYWHERE, and they NEVER DIE-- and they've all been around for decades. Check out this photoset:

#8 has a pretty beat-up truck with a rocket launcher on the back, as does 13. 30 has a bunch of them. Some of them are pretty clean, but mostly they're at least as beat as yours look.
