Default ORBAT links

Figured we could use a general ORBAT link thread. Both real world and gaming ORBATs are welcome.

Found this link today to the Real world 1989 Nato/European orbat.

http://www.scribd.com/doc/37695/NATO...of-Battle-1989

Seems pretty thorough. It even includes non aligned European countries like Austria, Ireland, Finland and Switzerland.

You have to register to download but it is pretty easy.

A few more:

first, a shameless plug for my web site, which has a bunch of Twilight-specific orbats: http://mysite.verizon.net/vzeedox4/ There are also air force and navy orbats on the Air Force orbat and Naval War pages.

Some other pages in a variety of languages:

This link goes with the NATO OOB above. It also has the same OOB that is easier to download IMO since you don't have to join anything.

Actually Grae, the orbats on orbat.com you reference are the daddies of the tank-net effort. The folks on tank-net have been working on updating the orbat.com ones for a few years and are light-years ahead in accuracy. The most accurate English-language Soviet orbat is in the orbat.com forums (which were recently spam-attacked, go to the last page of the general history forum), where long ago I reposted a translation of the first of the USSR sources I listed above. You can browse tank-net.org as a guest.

I'll have the Pact western, northwestern and southwestern TVDs detailed (regiment/battalion-level) orbat done hopefully by year end, along with a revised division and army-level worldwide Pact orbat to go on my site.

I would love to see an ORBAT for the v1.0 T2K reunified Germany. Creating such an ORBAT would be quite a challenge. One would have to start with a projected West German ORBAT, then add a projected DDR one, accounting for unit attrition/destruction on the China Front pre-97. Also, to make it even more complicated, I would assume some E. German units, especially Border Guard units, would stay loyal to the WTO. And then there's the matter of material incompatability.

Any such thing out there? Chico, you busy?
