In-Game equipment
Western PMC uses a mix of western bought weapons with mostly short to mid-range scopes. They greatly emphasize anti-infantry capabilities, using handled revolver-type MKE MGL grenade launchers and a variety of smaller more agile vehicles with great suppression power, like the CPV.
The faction relies greatly on mobility,reconnaissance and ambushes to be effective due to the absence of strong MBTs and IFVs, forcing it to play strategically.
