Assault Rifles
R89	Federal Union of Arcadia	Assault rifle	5.56x45mm	R89A R89B R89C	Beaconsfield Federal Armory Falstaff Arms Company	Originating as an updated version of the carbine-length R66B-XC, the R89 was formally adopted as the standard rifle of Arcadian forces starting in the 90s. The R66's 508mm barrel was traded for a 368mm barrel and the weight was decreased from 3.4kg to 2.92. A rail system and flat-top receiver allowing easier optics/laser mounting came with the R89B, followed by manufacturing, ergonomic, and material enhancements with the R89C.
R66	Federal Union of Arcadia	Assault rifle	5.56x45mm	R66A R66B R66B-XC R66C R66D R66E	Beaconsfield Federal Armory Homme Manufacturing Falstaff Arms Company	The R66 is direct-impingement rifle that's served in the Arcadian military since 1967 after replacing its earlier cousin, the R54. Forming the basis of a wife variety of civilian and military firearms, the R66 is considered a venerable, robust, and accurate platform. No longer in active service, but large stores of the rifle are kept.
SPR2015	Federal Union of Arcadia	Assault rifle	5.56x45mm	SPR2015A SPR2015B	Darkstar Technologies	Darkstar provided several thousand SPR2015s to the Arcadian Army starting in 2015 as part of a program to equip SOF units with top-tier aftermarket equipment not normally available to Army units. The rifle, a short-stroke piston driven variant of the R66/R89 platform, features a folding stock, easily changeable barrels and gas systems, and an M-LOK handguard for reduced weight from traditional rail systems.
R22	Federal Union of Arcadia	Assault rifle	6.8×51mm	R22A	Darkstar Technologies	XR22 (now R22) was declared the winner of the Enhanced Infantry Rifle Program following rigorous testing through 2020 and 2021. Featuring a new, extremely high-velocity cartridge and bullet capable of penetrating contemporary Level IV body armor, as well as a suite of new optic and laser/light options(among many other features), the rifle will start replacing front line R89s in 2022.
Machine Guns
MG75	Federal Union of Arcadia	Light machine gun	5.56x45mm	MG75A MG75B MG75C	Claypool Armaments	The MG75 light machine gun has served as the Army's standard squad automatic weapon since the 1980s. While now praised for lightweight and simple mechanics, the early examples of the MG75A suffered from reliability issues in harsh environments due to manufacturing defects. Few differences, aside from furniture and reliability changes, exist between early and late model MG75s.
MG88	Federal Union of Arcadia	Medium machine gun	7.62x51mm	MG88A MG88A/CMG MG88B MG8C	Beaconsfield Federal Armory Claypool Armaments	Since 1988, the MG88 has established a reputation as the most robust, durable machine gun in Arcadian service. While carried primarily by infantry and scout units in its 88B and 88C variants, the 88A/CMG is used as a coax by virtually all armored vehicles in the inventory, as well as on helicopters and trucks as a mounted machine gun. The 88C is notable for its titanium receiver and parts, making it more expensive, but also much lighter than the 88B.
GMG23	Federal Union of Arcadia	Medium/light machine gun	6.8×51mm	GMG23A	Darkstar Technologies	A companion program to the EIRP that produced the R22, the Objective Machine Gun Program produced the GMG23A as a new standardize general-purpose machine gun for the Army. Slated to slowly replace the MG88 and MG75, the GMG23 comes in a variety of configurations including a coaxial gun, helicopter mounted gun, infantry weapons squad gun, and as a short and light dismount gun. As a bonus, the weapon system uses the same 6.8mm armor-piercing cartridge as the R22.
MG31	Federal Union of Arcadia	Heavy machine gun	12.7×99mm	MG31 MG31A MG31B	Horn Arms Beaconsfield Federal Armory Carrington Armament	Beginning development in the early 1920s as a project of legendary firearms designer Langston Horn, the MG31 finally entered service a decade later in 1931. Serving in a wide capacity within the Arcadian military since, the MG31 is currently the longest-serving firearm in service.
Marksman Rifles
MR2016	Federal Union of Arcadia	Marksman rifle	7.62x51mm/6.8x51mm	MR2016A	Carrington Armament	Selected in 2015 as a spotter's rifle for sniper teams, the MR2016 was a companion project to the SR77-16, another rifle developed and adopted from a Carrington Armament submission to the Army. The rifle is built off of a similar short-stroke piston design as the SPR2015, though the MR2016 shares next to no parts in common with it. While originally chambered in 7.62x51, the Army has contracted Carrington to build conversion kits to the new standard 6.8x51mm and magazine of the R22.
SR77-16	Federal Union of Arcadia	Marksman rifle	7.62×72mm Carrington Magnum	SR77-16A	Carrington Armament	The SR77-16 is a total redesign of the venerable SR77 rifle selected alongside the MR2016 as the pair of rifles to equip all Army sniper teams. Chambered in the powerful 7.62x72 Carrington Magnum cartridge, the 77-16 is widely loved as an accurate, dependable, and highly customizable sniper rifle.
SR77	Federal Union of Arcadia	Marksman rifle	7.62x51mm/7.62×67mm	SR77A SR77B SR77C SR77D SR77D	Beaconsfield Federal Armory Homme Manufacturing Falstaff Arms Company	Adopted in the 70s, the SR77 quickly replaced the large variety of rifles previously employed by the Army as interim sniper and marksman rifles. While initially chambered in match-grade 7.62x51, Homme Manufacturing eventually rechambered it to 7.62x67 at Army request, improving its range and ballistic trajectory. While no longer in frontline service, stocks are maintained in Army possession, and a large number of earlier models were sold to the public as surplus.
AMR2000	Federal Union of Arcadia	Marksman rifle	12.7×99mm	AMR2000A AMR2000B	Western Manufacturing Group	The AMR2000 was a late-90s project that evaluated numerous anti-material rifles from around the industry and eventually selected the WMG LRR12. Used intermittently as both an anti-material rifle and a very long-range sniper rifle, the AMR2000 has become a popular symbol of Army snipers.
Handguns
P20	Federal Union of Arcadia	Handgun	9x19mm MagSec	P20A	Homme Manufacturing	One of the many recent small arms acquisitions by the Army, the polymer-framed P20 is the first pistol of its kind to enter widespread service with the Army. While the pistol itself is cut for optic, laser, and light use, the Army has not yet officially adopted any for it, though numerous special units have used discretionary funds to acquire them.
P79	Federal Union of Arcadia	Handgun	9x19mm MagSec 10×25mm	P79A P79B P79C P79C/Spec	Beaconsfield Federal Armory Homme Manufacturing	Adopted in the 70s to replace aging 11×23mm single-stack handguns, the P79 proved immediately successful with its improved high-velocity cartridge and expanded capacity. While the P79 rapidly became obsolete in the face of the polymer-framed handgun proliferation of the 1980s, the venerable pistol remained in service with Arcadian forces until only recently. A 10x25 variant, the P79C/Spec, has remained in use with SOF units who value its high-velocity bullet.

Tanks
CVM-81 Templar	Federal Union of Arcadia	Main battle tank	CVM-81A CVM-81B CVM-81C CVM-81D CVM-81DA	Reese-Dixon Motors Reese-Dixon Defense Arcadian Defense Systems	Active 480 CVM-81DA 840 CVM-81D 120 CVM-81C Stored 2,200 CVM-81B 2,100 CVM-81C 900 CVM-81D	The CVM-81 Templar (Combat Vehicle Model 81 "Templar") has been the undisputed backbone of the Arcadian Army for 40 years running. Adopted in 1982 as a highly advanced tank with unrivaled electronics and optics, it was enhanced further in the late 80s with the 120mm gun and mobility improvements of the CVM-81B. In the late 90s, the CVM-81C rolled out with further survivability and electro-optical upgrades to bring the tank into the 21st Century. Since 2010, the CVM-81D and CVM-81DA have further improved the tank's lethality, making it one of the deadliest (and most expensive) tanks in the world.
CVM-99 Wendigo	Federal Union of Arcadia	Light tank	CVM-99A CVM-99AR CVM-99B	Darkstar Technologies		Darkstar proposed the CVM-99 in the early 90s as an answer to the Army's request for a light tank capable of easy airborne transport and reconnaissance missions. The Wendigo gives Army recon units a great deal of direct firepower and is easily integrated, ad hoc, into armored infantry units due to its parts commonality with the CVM-1 Gaitor, giving the tracked infantry a great deal of fire support. The CVM-99 also serves as the star vehicle of Airborne Armored units due to its ease of transport in larger cargo aircraft.
Armored fighting vehicles
CVM-1 Gaitor	Federal Union of Arcadia	Infantry fighting vehicle	CVM-1A CVM-1AR CVM-1B CVM-1BR CVM-1C CVM-1D CVM-1DR CVM-1E CVM-1I CVM-1IR	Beaconsfield Federal Armory Arcadian Defense Systems	Active 312 CVM-1I 216 CVM-1IR 624 CVM-1D 432 CVM-1DR Stored 1,200 CVM-1D 700 CVM-1DR 1,900 CVM-1B 1,100 CVM-1BR 140 CVM-1C	Designed over several years in the late 70s in response to foreign IFV acquisitions, the CVM-1 Gaitor was billed as a lightweight, heavily armed vehicle that could both support the infantry as well as keep up with the tanks in rapid armored advances. Successive upgrades have improved the optics, electronics, engine, ATGM, armor, transmission, and even created a degree of parts-commonality between the CVM-1, CVM-99, and CMM-1101/1170. The chassis is also the basis for the RTM-701, CTM-702, and CVM-121.
UTM-1/VAMP Ox	Federal Union of Arcadia	Multi-purpose armored vehicle	UTM-1A/VAV UTM-1B/VAV	Beaconsfield Federal Armory Arcadian Defense Systems		The UTM-1/VAMP (Utility Tracked Model 1 Versatile Armored Multiuse Platform) Ox is essentially a utility variant of the CVM-1 without a turret. Numerous configurations of the vehicle exist, including a mortar carrier, command vehicle, communication hub, ambulance, CBRN team transport, and transporter.
UTM-60 Bobcat	Federal Union of Arcadia	Multi-purpose armored vehicle	UTM-60A UTM-60B UTM-60C UTM-60D	Morrison Chemical and Aluminum Company		Introduced in 1960 to replace a number of similar-but-problematic designs, the UTM-60 quickly proved itself to a reliable workhorse and highly versatile design. The APC has been used as a mortar carrier, command post, ambulance, communications hub, personnel carrier, and more throughout its long career. While no longer in active service, the Army maintains a very large stock of UTM-60s in reserve.
CVM-78 Landshark	Federal Union of Arcadia	Amphibious multi-purpose armored vehicle	CVM-78A CVM-78B CVM-78C CVM-78D	Beaconsfield Federal Armory Reese-Dixon Defense		The CVM-78 was adopted to address a number of major shortcomings of the much older LVTs and amphibious transport vehicles used by the Marines. Featuring more protection and firepower to support amphibious landings, including machine guns and automatic grenade launchers, the Landshark was a vast improvement over previously used vehicles. Despite this, the vehicle has been controversial due to perceived issues with reliability and safety, with a number of accidents having killed Marines and soldiers during training.
CVM-419 Swordfish	Thalassic Federation	Amphibious infantry fighting vehicle	CVM-419A CVM-419B CVM-419C CVM-419D			Arcadian interest in the Thalassic amphibious ALPC-II Kangaroo FSV led to the Army ordering a number of the vehicles for evaluation in the 80s, and eventually adopting them for the Marines under the designation of CVM-419 Swordfish. Providing mobility and firepower, as well as amphibious capabilities, the 419 has become a very popular vehicle among Marines. Several upgrades have brought the electronics and armor up to date to contemporary standards, though there are questions as to whether the type is becoming obsolete.
CVM-429 Lancer	Federal Union of Arcadia Thalassic Federation	Infantry fighting vehicle	CVM-429A CVM-429B	Reese-Dixon Defense		While the Army was interested in acquiring the ALPC-II Kangaroo FSV for its non-Marine forces, the design was deemed too light for land-based Army units. Reese-Dixon was contracted to develop a version of the vehicle with greater armor, weight-bearing capability, and firepower, resulting in the Lancer. Since adoption, the Lancer and its numerous variants have become widespread across the force, including anti-tank, fire support, transport, utility, and short-range air defense configurations.
CVM-429/AT White Lancer	Federal Union of Arcadia Thalassic Federation	ATGM carrier	CVM-429A/AT CVM-429B/AT	Reese-Dixon Defense		The CVM-429/AT White Lancer is an AT variant of the standard Lancer, sans the turret in exchange for an ATGM launcher that fires the prolific GML-70 Missile, Anti-Tank, Optical (MATO). The White Lancer has been upgraded to be capable of firing both the wire-guided and non-wire guided versions of the missile.
CVM-429/FSV Vanguard Lancer	Federal Union of Arcadia Thalassic Federation	Fire support vehicle	CVM-429A/FSV CVM-429B/FSV	Reese-Dixon Defense Darkstar Technologies		Reese-Dixon and Darkstar collaborated on the Vanguard Lancer to combine the gun of the CVM-99 with the chassis of the Lancer, as well as a mutually designed crewless-turret. The result of this work is a 105mm FSV capable of giving direct fire support to the mechanized brigades.
UWM-429/RMP Chariot Lancer	Federal Union of Arcadia Thalassic Federation	Multi-purpose armored vehicle	UWM-429A/RMP UWM-429B/RMP	Reese-Dixon Defense		The UWM-429/VWMP Chariot Lancer (Utility Wheeled Model 429 Redesignated Mobile Protection) is astandard infantry carrying variant of the Lancer armed with a machine gun or automatic grenade launcher. The Chariot Lancer is sometimes referred to as the "Rimp" on account of its acronym. While the Chariot Lancer was the original variant of the Lancer adopted by the Army, the 30mm armed variant that replaced it became the standard infantry transport and the lightly-armed original was redesignated and reserved for utility purposes.
Air Defense
