Apoc's "For the motherland!" Edges

Snipers: The OVS has the more powerful round which gives it a greater chances for a killshot, but the L129A1 has a bigger magazine capacity and fire rate. EDGE: EVEN

Mid range: The SA-80 uses a modern bullup design which makes it weigh less for the same barrlel length. The AKS-74U simpily is a shorter AK-74. EDGE: PARACHUTE REGGIES

Close range: The P226 has a higher magazine capacity, no contest here. EDGE: PARACHUTE REGGIES

Support weapon: The L11OA1 has a way higher magazine capacity and rate of fire which makes a good machine gun. The RPK simply has to be reloaded more often while the reggies are still firing their guns. EDGE: PARACHUTE REGGIES

Special: The bayonet can be used as a knife and gun extension. You won't have to be fumbling around for your knife if it's already on your gun. It also adds the edge of being a longer weapon. EDGE: PARACHUTE REGGIES.

X-factors

Training: The Russian Airborne has tougher training for a possible longer peroid of time. EDGE: RUSSIAN AIRBORNE

ENDURANCE: Both groups have hard training to go through. I think this is an even match. EDGE: EVEN

Tactics: Both have similar tactics that give no side the advantage here. EDGE: EVEN

Overall winner: PARACHUTE REGGIES

They brought the superior weaponry with them. Since their tactics are similar to the Russian Airborne, they tip the balance with their weapons. The only advantage the RA has is more brutal training, their more powerful sniper rifle, and more knowledge of the land (it is in Russia).
