It would certainly be Volmachtia's infant Space Marine Corps, cooperating with the similarly new Star Navy to help enforce Volmachtian interests within and throughout our solar system. The Space Marine armor suit has been nicknamed the "Skeleton" for relatively obvious reasons, and it is composed of bulletproof ceramo-plastoid composites.

Arca Majour may spend a higher proportion of money on its soldiers, but when it comes to intensive training its tank crews are ahead by far. The Arcan army uses a modified challenger 2 as its universal-role tank. Its is meant to fulfil the broadest variety of roles ranging from spearhead, tank destroyer, to bunker buster, self propelled gun and heavy recognisance when needed. For this reason the crew is trained intensively and it is still considered one of the highest honours in the Arcan army, to work on a Challanger 2(m).

Image

The selection process is tough, teams are subjected to 24 hour drills involving a battery of draining physical and mental test, requiring above all teamwork; such as external reloading under stress, dealing with the injured, evasion and outwit, operating a tank alone, urban ops, small arms use, and of course, force protection. Teams which cannot out perform there rivals lose their ability to operate one of the limited number of these expensive tanks. Those that do earn the right to wear the coveted green jacket.

Tank teams serving years for Arca Majour even begin to display precognitive abilities concerning their battle brothers actions, to the point where they no longer need talk. There are 4 crew; commander, gunner, loader/operator, & driver, each are recruited from a different vehicle in Arcas military, performing the same role. At the end of there training they are taught the most difficult skill a team can master; low altitude airdrop by AC130 whereby the tank is placed on a parachuted ‘skid-plate’ and dropped from the rear of the low flying plane. No other country is capable of this dangerous maneuver which requires close cooperation between the army and the air force. At the end of their training they can truly be considered ‘tank aces’ the match of any tank in the world.

The Yuktebonian military has the Red brigade. Each member goes through a intense five year training, the members are trianed to live off of the forest, they can hack the internet, trained in electrical systems, booby traps, raid enemy bases, and they all pledge their lives to Yuktebonia before they exit basic training. These soldiers are well known to blend in perfectly in enemy teritory.

The Black Hand is the Brotherhood's elite special operations and intelligence organization. Formed from only the most loyal followers, it also acts as an internal security force, watching for any signs of dissent and rooting out and eliminating spies and traitors. As much a religious priesthood as an elite combat unit, the Black Hand undergo even more extreme indoctrination than regular Nod soldiers, resulting in fanatical zealots with unquestioning faith in Brotherhood.

As a fighting force, the Black Hand are deadly. Aside from their fanatical devotion, they are equipped with the very best technology Nod has at its disposal, including the Ezekiel's Cape optical camouflage stealth armour. Additionally, Black Hand units frequently use incendiary weaponry such as flamethrowers and white phosphorus grenades in order to demoralise enemy soldiers.

M.K VII - High-Spec Military Exosuit Unit

The suit is manufactured to a Juggernaut standard, focusing more so on protection, making it a heavy suit.
However, it is reinforced with an Exoframe, making the suit as light as a feather whilst it can still offer it's decent amount of protection.
These suits are commonly distributed to Dragoons and Dragons moreso, and the Exosuit frame can even allow the user to wield a BOFORS cannon into battle with ease.

Whilst the users mobility and maneuverability are somewhat limited, it allows the user to take a 7.62x54 round to the head (On modern Dragonkin systems) and still walk on unhindered.
Whilst it may be primitive in some of your eyes, these suits can change the tide of some lesser battle to our favor with these units.

These units are deployed in Fireteams against the enemy, and there are estimates of over 150 fireteams, with 3 people per fireteam.

Shock troops are the most highly trained, equipped, and elite military units in Snercropolis. There are about 15,000 total. They can be deployed within hours of briefing. They use automatic shotguns or battle rifles. Usually, they are accompanied by heavy air support.

Yes, yes, so you just put new equipment that's never been on a battlefield before into the hands of random soldiers, or you issue it straight to the entire army... good job. Test units are actually a pretty serious thing, the U.S.'s DEVGRU has shot down (pardon the pun) several potentially catastrophic weapons designs (i.e. today's infantry-carriable rail/coilgun designs) before they reached larger-level testing. If you don't test weapons with specialized groups, you end up with shit sandwiches like the M16 assault rifle, which has taken years off of American development of actual, useful systems and instead created a multi-billion, possibly trillion dollar black hole focused on making a "better version" of a shitty rifle. Or, I should say, cartridge.

why even use new stuff on infantry? Old stuff works just fine in the hands of a battle-hardened, highly trained soldier.

It is called testing, we do it to all of our weapons, and a lot of it. When it comes to distributing new equipment we do it based on experience, less experienced units are given newer equipment first, followed by more experienced units. Since the less experienced units have less experience with their current equipment, and have become less attached to it they will be less likely to hold a bias against new equipment. Regardless, we don't waste money on a combat unit that does nothing but see how useful the newest toys are, and even if we did, the biggest differences between them and regular soldiers would be fancy new rifles or something.

Even with the rate at which we adopt new technologies and ideas, a research unit still serves no real purpose, and we adopt all of the newest weapons and equipment when it is developed.

that sounds frighteningly expensive, having to switch out weapons every few months.

In practice the Crookfur units with the most "advanced" equipment would be:

36th Operational Trials and Evaluation Regiment, part of number 101 Developement Divsion.

254(R) Wing of the Crookfur Royal Airforce which incorporates several OTE and Operational Development squadrons

DEV(elopment)FOR(ce) is the Crookfur Royal Navy's main researcha nd development unit and includes several sqaudrons tasking with over seeing the introduction of new weapons systems, aircraft and ship classes.

Personnel from the above units can also be found integrated into other selected field units both over seeing limited issue trials and observing longer term feedback programs.


Arca majour :

Whsilt i hate to put a downer on thigns but you won't be using LAPES to deploy Chally 2s (of any flavour) out of an AC-130 or even a proper C-130 which have a max payload of about 20tons. To actually lift a challenger 2 you need at least a C-17. Of course even if you cna lift it you won;t be LAPESing a challenger. In practical term you are looking at a max weight of 20-25tons for a tank that cna be landed that way regardless of how big the carrier aircraft is.

Regular:
Probably the "Royal" units in the Army and Marines.

The 'R' pretty much also stands for "research." So they test out all sorts of fancy new stuff that never gets seen in regular units, mostly because hardly any of it even works yet.

Which has given a third meaning to the R, "Resservists."

PMCs:
Alright, this one is a bit tougher because they tend to procure their own weapons en-masse per unit. And they either trade-up their mil-surplus to match the regular units, or keep the older equipment out of sentimental reasons.

Other times (and very seldomly does this occur) they buy completely foriegn mission-specific arms, or utilize captured weapon stockpiles such as Dephire's entire nuclear missile command base and every ICBM in their posession.

Oh yes, there is also one unit that gets the latest weapons and equipment: the 333rd Special Attack Regiment. Consisting entirely of Reptiles, they get the most advanced gear available, most of them only prototypes to test how they work in the field. Currently, they are the testing unit for the prototype XM32 blaster rifle and the prototype XM99 armored suit.

Weapons include thing such as the RAM-s830 (Mk.3) pictured below

Although not modern by international standards, these men and women are battled hardened veterans. They tend to have a negative standpoint towards more modern equipment such as active camoflauge, because they see it as a liability. Their favorite piece of equipment is the 30cm black combat blade.
