3 factions, different gear

Ok I will state this now, this is a post I made using mostly the same text I used to answer someone's question, but after thinking about it I decided I wanted to make this an actual post.

This post is how I think vehicles and uniforms will work in game, now I don't believe this will happen until at least halfway through EA or at release of 1.0, I'm not putting down the exact vehicles or anything, but I will state this, I do not believe any faction will have brand new gear, they're gear will likely be oldish, not super old but like early to mid 2010's, just personal thought, but I do believe they were in time make each vehicle and aircraft belong to a faction, enjoy the read

Lonestar will likely get mostly US based gear, with the name it's likely a Paramilitary based in the US and possibly backed by the US like Blackwater was, also in the description of them it states they're well known for their Texas grit likely meaning their headquarters is in Texas, also multiple sources states that both the L2A6 and the M1 Abrams is in game so if that is true, I'd say the M1 will be given to this faction.

Valkyra, as expected it's probably getting Russian based gear, alongside the possibility of Chinese gear, I think this group could be a faction of the Soviet government kinda similar to what cod cold war had, kinda like Perseus if that makes sense, the Mi-28 Havoc would belong to this faction, likely the Mi-28A version, another possibility about this group is that they could be a Wagner like organization, backed by the USSR since in this universe they never collapsed.

Manticore, which is based on Kingdom of Persia, which what Iran was before its revolution that turned it into Iran, now the Kingdom of Persia was actually a close ally to NATO and a member of CENTO, which was the middle east version of NATO, so my guess is that they'd get European gear, like the L2A6, it would definitely be accessible for them in the modern day if they never collapsed.

Now I will state this, this is just a theory, and the games dropping in early access, more vehicles and weapons will be added in time, something the devs have stated themselves, but from the looks of it I could definitely see each faction having locked vehicles on release, and honestly I'd be all for it, and I'm going off info I've gotten from the devs, and other sources like EUheadquarters.com, I'm not posting the link because I'm not sure I can, if they're ok with it please let me know and I'll put it in comments.

I hope you enjoyed the read

(Had to make an edit, I accidentally put M-26 and M-28 instead of Mi-28 which is the correct model number for the MI-28 Havoc)
