Trivia

 * The MEC are mainly using export Russian equipment. This is common with many Middle Eastern armies today.
 * The MEC use a fictional flag in Battlefield 2 and use the flag of Iraq in Battlefield: Bad Company.
 * Most of the MEC's equipment and skin are of Militia style.
 * The Black Eagle Tank used in Battlefield: Bad Company was actually a prototype built by Russia, but was halted due to the acceptance of the T-90 so technically it was never placed into production. It is possible that Russia continued the Black Eagle Program between now and the events of Bad Company or it is possible another nation bought the design from Russia..
 * Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is the only modern era Battlefield game where the MEC does not appear.
