At which point does the equipment database end?

Looked at the Equipment database and it looks to me like the equipment is up to date through about 2000? No IDF Puma, Namer, Achzarit, Nagmash, Merkava IV, etc...
Would that be about right?

There's a larger database that has had extensive work done on it to include almost every kind of equipment existing in the world as of the year 2018 I'm thinking. You might want to take a look at it to see it you might want to use it. I've attached it here below. Just unzip it.

Thanks I just got back from a cruise without internet access (deliberate). I've downloaded the ZIP and will take a look. I was hoping to do a 2020 Syrian/Russian vs. IDF conflict scenario. Are there any thoughts of updating the database into the 2020s (some futuristic/projected weapon systems)?

BeirutDude,(great handle!)
Welcome aboard.
Near future scenarios are welcomed, especially from those with on the ground experience.
re: database updates. These are created by users like yourself. Perhaps you could apply some of your first-hand knowledge combined, extrapolations, combined with the best guess estimates, and expand the modern eqp database Larry had attached.
Cheers

I don't remember where I got that file from but I think it was somebody on the forum that posted it in the MODS section about 6 months ago. Maybe not quite that long. If I can find out who's work it is I'll attribute it to him.
Oh, and if you make some changes in the EQP file please name it something else besides it's original name.
