This PR: - Introduces a new member of UnitType, hit_points, which is an abstract representation of the durability of a unit, and loads it in from the YAML files in the various subclasses (Ship, Ground etc). - Adds scripts for populating/updating the unit YAML files with hit point data from DCS. This script also gets the data for static objects, but I'll leave the plugging in of static object data into Liberation for another PR. - Updates the unit YAML files by running the above scripts. I did toy with the idea of adding this data to the unit definitions in pydcs via an export from DCS, but it would be a more involved change, since the current pydcs export script runs in the Hooks Lua environment in DCS and AFAICT the hit points (via Unit.getLife()) is run in the mission scripting environment.

description: "The M60 reached operational capability with fielding to US Army units\
|
|
\ in Europe beginning in December 1960. The first combat usage of the M60 was with\
|
|
\ Israel during the 1973 Yom Kippur War where it saw service under the \"Magach\
|
|
\ 6\" designation, performing well in combat against comparable tanks such as the\
|
|
\ T-62. In 1982 the Israelis once again used the M60 during the 1982 Lebanon War,\
|
|
\ equipped with upgrades such as explosive reactive armor to defend against guided\
|
|
\ missiles that proved very effective at destroying tanks. The M60 also saw use\
|
|
\ in 1983 with Operation Urgent Fury, supporting US Marines in an amphibious assault\
|
|
\ into Grenada. M60s delivered to Iran also served in the Iran\u2013Iraq War. The\
|
|
\ United States' largest deployment of M60s was in the 1991 Gulf War, where the\
|
|
\ US Marines equipped with M60A1s effectively defeated Iraqi armored forces, including\
|
|
\ T-72 tanks. The United States readily retired the M60 from front-line combat after\
|
|
\ Operation Desert Storm, with the last tanks being retired from National Guard\
|
|
\ service in 1997.[16] M60-series vehicles continue in front-line service with a\
|
|
\ number of countries' militaries, though most of these have been highly modified\
|
|
\ and had their firepower, mobility and protection upgraded to increase their combat\
|
|
\ effectiveness on the modern battlefield."
