====Ashkenang==== | |||
Ashkenang's military uses a mix of Capetian-built [[Maktstepân]] rifles and .25 caliber surplus RCA-2009, with the RCA-2009 being used by the armed forces and the Maktstepân being the service weapon of its token Naval Task Force and the Territorial Guards. | |||

====Eldmora==== | |||
The Eldmoran-Regulan Confederation purchased several thousand RCA-2009-.30 ''Aonaicht'' advanced versions of the rifle in 2022, at retains them as a service weapon for some forces along with natively produced arms. Eldmora has been approved for license production under a currently-undisclosed native name. | |||

As the RCA-2009 was originally intended for the [[Office of the National Army|Fhainnin Army]], it entered service immediately after production began in 2010. It was generally well-received with the exception of complaints about stopping and penetrative power being slightly reduced, and the sharing of ammunition with .25 caliber sidearms was not appreciated as most Fhainnin soldiers preferred to carry an additional magazine for their primary weapon rather than additional clips for a sidearm of inferior caliber, citing the increasing prevalence of body armor in potential opposing forces such as an [[Occidental civilization|Occidental]] power in the form of [[Caergwynn]] or [[Vithinja]], as well as elite formations abroad such as mercenary units, elite formations, or even [[Varshan|Varshani]] forces. | As the RCA-2009 was originally intended for the [[Office of the National Army|Fhainnin Army]], it entered service immediately after production began in 2010.

The RCA-2009-.30 was put into service shortly thereafter and is the current standard chamber for the Fhainnin military, featuring in the invasion of [[Algoquona]] during the [[Peninsular War|Peninsular]] and later [[Final War of the Deluge|Final Deluge]] Wars. | The RCA-2009-.30 was put into service shortly thereafter and is the current standard chamber for the Fhainnin military, featuring in the invasion of [[Algoquona]] during the [[Peninsular War|Peninsular]] and later [[Final War of the Deluge|Final Deluge]] Wars. | ||
====Kiravia==== | |||
The Kiravian Federation, as per its agreements with Faneria, produces the RCA-2009-.30 ''Goirid'' carbine on license under its [[Fhasen]] name. The Kiravian military retains the Maktstepân-03 upgrade package as its preferred infantry service weapon. | |||
====Maloka==== | ====Maloka==== | ||
Maloka's National Liberation Army is a decidedly second-world military, with a small core of troops with primarily last-gen equipment. However, while it primarily uses the [[Maktstepân|RCA-1984]], the RCA-2009-.30 is used by its Capital Guards formation and the country's Rangers battalion. Maloka plans to retain the RCA-1984 as its primary service weapon until at least 2040. | Maloka's National Liberation Army is a decidedly second-world military, with a small core of troops with primarily last-gen equipment.
