This Worldwide Equipment Guide (WEG) serves as an interim guide for use in training,
simulations, and modeling until the publication of FM 100-65, Capabilities-Based Opposing
Force: Worldwide Equipment Guide. The WEG is designed for use with the FM 100-60 series of
capabilities-based opposing force field manuals. It provides the basic characteristics of selected
equipment and weapons systems readily available to the capabilities-based OPFOR, and generally
listed in either FM 100-61, Armor- and Mechanized-Based Opposing Force: Organization Guide
or FM 100-63, Infantry-Based Opposing Force: Organization Guide. Selected weapons systems
and equipment are included in the categories of infantry weapons, infantry vehicles, reconnaissance
vehicles, tanks/assault vehicles, antitank, artillery, air defense, engineer and logistic systems,
and rotary-wing aircraft.
