Will those who complete Squadron 42 before joining the wider universe, being former military, have an easier time with the authorities regarding the weaponry their ships are equipped with, or greater access to military-grade hardware?asked by Druid

We've talked about that. We actually have talked about whether or not all the top, top gear is available to all players. And my thought is that if you didn't serve in the military or you have a bad rap with the UEE for some other reason, you can't get to it. So I would think that military service might give you some access at least to some things that other people can't get.

You can't get it legitimately, but there's always options for those who want to live outside the law.
