You will need to edit the scripts to make new scripts to order the AI to build the new units.
The scripts are found in the game's folder > data > scripts > SkirmishScripts.scb

They take some time to load into worldbuilder depending on your device.

I've never edited the AI to build new units but have you tried keeping the original commandbuttons/commansets and just let the AI build the new units through them? While keeping the original prerequisites, too.

You need to use worldbuilder program then import the scripts from the folder I mentioned above, after that you will need to go through the painful process of editing the scripts.

Or

What I mean was like make the new unit with the whole new code but call it 'AmericaTankCrusader' or another original tank's name that the AI would build, like that the AI should still use the old command buttons to build your new tank while it thinks it is the old AmericaTankCrusader as you would not have to change the commandsets/buttons. If you get what I mean.

Yea I got to be able for AI to build my custom tank of Tank General, by using the infernocannon's Commandbutton, Object Name

However what if I couldn't open world builder? is there a way to fix the worldbuilder error that it cannot find my units

If I remember correctly you won't have that problem as long as you have this part in your unit's code.

If so just keep choosing ignore, if that's not it then maybe check the crash report for WB, there may be something wrong with the INI codes or data the WB needs for the game.
