So as we know, we are currently using a mixture of gear from all 4 Nations but in release, each Nation will have its own full complement of equipment based around each Nations cultural style, just like they do in EVE. This is an attempt to keep track of what gear is revealed to us and what Nation they belong to.
Not including Aurum Gear, cause I am seeing Aurum gear as being "black market" variants, so to speak.
Help me out with this list, and I'll try to keep it updated. and will re-arrange it as needed, as I am sure I will get several of these wrong.
my initial list is off the top of my head, I am not ingame right now to look.
NOTE: By revealed, I mean that either We can use it ingame now, or we have concept art (like the Testers Tournament wallpapers) for it.
Infantry Equipment -
Amarr Empire:
Heavy Dropsuit
Scrambler Pistol (Sidearm)
Scrambler Rifle (Light AI) *Concept Art*
Laser Rifle (Light AI)
Caldari State:
Assault Dropsuit
Forge Gun (Heavy AV)
Sniper Rifle (Light AI)
Swarm Launcher (Light AV)
AV Grenade (Explosive)
Gauss Rifle (Light AI) *Concept Art*
Nova Knives (Sidearm)
Gallente Federation:
Scout Dropsuit
Assault Rifle (Light AI)
Shotgun (Light AI)
Flux Grenade (Explosive)
Minmatar Republic:
Logistics Dropsuit
Locus Grenade (explosive)
Submachine Gun (Sidearm)
Flaylock Pistol (Sidearm) *Concept Art*
Heavy Machine Gun (Heavy AI)
Mass Driver (Light AI) |

thats what i got so far. I'll work on the rest sometime tomorrow, or the next day, since I am off work and got nothing better to do for most of the day.
some of these, I categorized, by looking at the Prototypes of each weapon, as most of the Prototypes bear the name of a Corporation in one of the 4 Nations. |

I am quite anxious to see the Amarr AV weapons.
If they suck, I may well be switching to Caldari. |

Everyone needs access to some kind of AR equivalent. Gallente make the current AR, the Laser Rifle can probably fill the role for Amarr, but the closest the Caldari have is a Sniper Rifle (NOT a viable substitute) and the Minmatar have to work with HMGs and SMGs with no mid-range or in-between-size assault weapons.
right.
all the basic weapon types and vehicle types will(should) have racial variants whose combat style is unique.
Sidearm
Light Anti-Infantry
Light Anti-Vehicle
Sniper Rifle
Heavy Anti-Infantry
Heavy Anti-Vehicle
LAV
HAV
Dropship
Logistics Vehicles
The Infantry weapons would different in their ammunition type and their style of usage. The vehicles would differ in aesthetic design and Turret usage. |

any vehicle drivers wanna chime in on this?
I don't use the vehicles, so I'm no expert on who manufactures what in that area. |

Here are the Corporations that make Forge Guns (using the Prototype tier as the basis of information)
Ishukone
Wiyrkomi
Kaalakiota
All three are Caldari MegaCorps.
Also, according to the official description of the Forge Gun, it was adapted from Deep Core Mining Inc.'s Proprietary Mining Equipment. DCM Inc. is also a Caldari Corporation, though not a MegaCorp, I don't think. |

Assault suit is Caldari made, while Assault Rifle is made by Gallente.
Everyone know that Gallente and Caldari are hated by each other and had wars before.
As playing for Gallente, i dont want to use suits made by filthy Caldari...
This is just sad that CCP aint following EVE pattern lore wiser. :(
cause Beta. basically.
Storywise, we are in Mordu's neutral territory participating in his trials, and we use the equipment that he provides.
it won't be this way on release. at least not initially. if Dust follows the pattern of EVE, eventually you will be able to use whatever gear from whatever nation you see fit to train, but you will start with your own Nation's gear exclusively.
