Standardize or tweak mass (weight) values of faction-specific infantry uniforms
New, WishlistPublic

Description

Currently infantry uniforms have the following mass and containerclass values:
(excluding pilot uniforms, gillie suits and wetsuits.)
NATO: 40/supply40
AAF: 50/supply50.
CSAT: 60/supply60
FIA: 40/supply40.

The addition of pockets doesn't justify the proportional increase in weight.

Furthermore so when considering that by filling those pockets even more weight will be added to the unit.

I'd argue for either reducing mass on CSAT/AAF uniforms or standardizing all uniforms to either the 50/50 or 40/40 level.

Additional Information

The increased CSAT uniform weight also effectively nullifies any benefit CSAT might receive from not having any faction-specific plate carriers available, i.e. having less weight by default due to using harnesses.
