NOTES:
* Current US Army MTOE uses the M2A3 BFV; the M3A2 was selected as a suitable substitution.
* The FO's M3A2 CFV may be substituted for an M981 FISTV to trade firepower for optics.
* Ammunition quantities do not match the real world equivalent. This was a deliberate decision to emphasize fun over realism.
* US Tank Companies use the M88A2; the M88A1 is an appropriate substitution.
* Recon Troop XOs actually uses an M1068; the M577 is suitable substitution.
* Scout Teams have been equipped with the JIM-LR.
* The 2 and 3 element in each Recon Platoon have the Javelin Teams.
* The Squadron S3 is normally identified by "33" as his callsign; 65 is used to enable better fidelity at the Troop level.
* The Squadron Staff, Squadron Aid Station, and the Forward Support Company are not modeled in this template.
Recommended callsign template:
US battalion
* change "HHC" to "HHT" to match current US Cavalry naming conventions.
