Some funding curve problems here I think. This one has ABAB tanks, though building tanks early on might not even be good since you could get more Infantry to grab properties instead. So Copter openings seem a lot better, though Copter order is ABAB as well. If both players go Copter into Tank (which is maybe optimal?), you'll get ABBA vehicles, though at that point OS could easily baseskip for a tank and ABAB order. So apart from the funding issues, I think opening choices are somewhat limited here due to the preowned airports.
EDIT: Re-Newed after airport change (they're now neutral)

2nd review: The map has BABA tanks now as far as I can see.

3rd review: I think the funding curve advantages P1 somewhat as P1 can baseskip for ABAB tanks or gets ABBAA tanks normally. Though this might not be that much of an issue as building the first tank seems not that good for P1. A-ranking and leaving in Under Review for now to see if it's balanced.
