Default A Change, Maybe

I have a question that I would like some feed back on. Should the Low Altitude Air Defense Battalions be replaced with the Light Anti-Aircraft Missile Battalions, which were active in 1996. The MIM-23B Hawk; used by the Light Anti-Aircraft Missile Battalions; was phased out of U.S. Marine Corps service in 2002, replacing it with the FIM-92 Stinger; which is used by the Low Altitude Air Defense Battalions.

I think no, because I think that Marine Corps would replaced the HAWK Missile sooner than 2002 if there was a viable threat on the horizon.

Also I'm currently working on the UK/NL Landing Force (Royal Marines and Korps Mariniers unit), I will post for all interested parties.
