If it's an internal error (DTA will tell you so), zip the except.txt file that ought to be in your game folder and post it.
Don't forget DTA.log, which is actually more important for us.

The crashes are caused by the AI Light Tank and the AI SSM Launchers that are in the center if your map. So just remove them and the map will stop crashing.
I have no idea why this would cause the map to crash however, since the game doesn't crash when the AI just builds them...

Yeah, I checked log file after the map crashed as well and it indeed doesn't give any clues. To find the cause, I just opened the map in a text editor and removed the non-essential things (things the map doesn't need to work) one-by-one until it finally stopped crashing (which was when I'd removed the units). And from there I just kept removing groups of units until it stopped crashed (while making the groups smaller and smaller) until I finally found exactly which units were the cause.

I got rid of all the AI tanks and the map just crashed again do I just abandon all hope?

The ones I mentioned are still there... Download this version; I removed the units for you.
