Mafia Wars Best Items

Due to the releases of Mafia Wars Moscow, the recent upgrades to some old equipment, and the several more expansions on the horizon, it seems like it would be a good idea to maintain a running "Best Of" list to outline the best offensive and defensive weapons, armor, and vehicles in game.

Note, to qualify for the list, it must be an item that drops from jobs (job mastery items (like the cazador assault rifle, godfather points items and limited edition items like the Red Coat will be excluded from the list).

Best Offensive Weapons:
Ubijca Assault Rifle: 43 attack, 18 defense - from the "Help "Plan" The Next Attack" job (Vory Only) in Episode 5 in Moscow.

Best Defensive Weapon:
Zmeya Carbon Blade: 28 attack, 44 defense. Drops from the "Hit a Vory Nightclub" job (Mafiya Only) in Episode 6 in Moscow.

Best Offensive Armor:
Shturmovik: 45 attack, 28 defense. Drops from the "Rob a Troop Convoy" job (Vory only) in Episode 4 in Moscow.

Best Defensive Armor:
Executive Overcoat: 22 attack, 45 defense. Drops from the "Acquire Classified Files On Crime Syndicates" job (both sides) in Episode 6 in Moscow.

Best Offensive Vehicle:
Zoloto Sports Car: 43 attack, 22 defense. Drops from the "Ship Black-Market Caviar To London" job (both sides) in Episode 6 in Moscow.

Best Defensive Vehicle:
Konstantin Cargo Carrier: 18 Attack 44 Defense - from the Vory only job in Episode 6 (need name/picture).

Conclusion
Currently, all the best items in the game now come from Moscow. However, not all upgrades are the same. TNT/Canonazos have 1 less attack than the Ubijca Assault Rifle, and the Armored State Car only has 2 less defense than the Konstantin Cargo Carrier. The executive overcoat, zoloto sports car, shturmovik, and zmeya carbon blade however are all very nice upgrades. As a result, you would do well to focus on collecting the latter four items first and replacing your TNT last.
