Open them in the TOAW IV scenario editor, then save them again.

There may be some oddities with earlier versions, but the above should at least make it possible open the scenario to play.

This warning can me produced in error, based on whether an equipment file was loaded the last time the scenario was saved. If not then it means the scenario should be provided with a supporting custom equipment file, and not using this file will cause some units to have the wrong equipment. If you don't see this in the zip or wherever you got the scenario, probably there is no such file.
