I think... if GHQ read ONE wishlist, it was this one:

Thinking about what vehicles are needed to plug the gaps in the modern lines. Though of course there are infinite varieties of service/support vehicles, it seems to me that the most "game useful" fillers are now recon vehicles. So, most of what I listed below is in that category.

China: They need a post-Cold War truck. FAW MV3. Extra points if it is double cab version, making it a more unique model. YES

(Holding out to see if they do the double cab for extra points)

France: If there's a Griffon and a Jaguar there must be a Serval. NO

Germany: The Wiesel NO

Israel: Eitan YES

Japan: Komatsu LAV YES

Korea: K808 APC. Everybody has an 8x8 APC these days! YES

Russia: The UAZ 3163. This is an SUV type vehicle used as a command and staff vehicle, which would also work well as generic military/civilian/irregular SUV, complementing the Toyota pickups. (Unlike the Gelandewagon or the Landrovers, it has the rounded body style of modern SUV's) NO

UK: The Ajax. YES

USA: The Joint Light Tactical Vehicle. YES
6 out of 9!

I will second Redleg's request for Q-36 & Q-37 Firefinder radars. Both deployed and travel configurations.
Cold War through Present / USA (Army & Marines) and a few others.
A pack of ATG - Antennae Transceiver Group - trailers with three Q-36 in the deployed mode and three in the travel mode along with two Q-37 in the deployed mode and two in the travel mode would be most excellent! Used for C-RAM, Counter-Rocket / Artillery / Mortar, missions. When someone gets rowdy with your troops it lets your 8" and MLRS troops smack back. Good from 1982 (Q-36) / 1984 (Q-37) to present. I have the generator truck kit-bash and the TOC truck figured for both systems. Well, sort of... Initially supported by 2 1/2 & 5 ton trucks now supported by HMMWV's.
I Still need the Q-36 & Q-37 ATG trailers in both travel and deployed mode. Did a fine kit-bash for the generator trucks and have all of the other vehicles. The generator trucks in the three Q-36 sections are C-in-C M-35A2's with the canvas cover off and Shapeways/Masters of Military generator trailers with the hitch, fenders and wheels carefully removed. The generator trucks in the two Q-37 sections are Shapeways/Masters of Military M-923's with the canvas cover off and Shapeways/Masters of Military generator trailers with the hitch, fenders and wheels carefully removed.

I want to add to the above the M-1059 Smoke Generator Carrier. Need twelve. Trying to kit-bash the top vents for the two jet engines' smoke exhaust vents at this scale is, to say the least, a challenge. Still searching for something to work with until my wish is granted!
