Default Re: Jets & Planes but no UAV's here.

More often then not when USMC Reserve units are called up it's JUST the warm bodies, their equipment stays at home, So the vehicles and such used are the same as those used by active duty forces not the odds-n-sods they normally use at home.

I have no clue about the National Guard/US Army. But strongly suspect they're handled very differently to a US Army Reserve unit. And I know in some cases Reserve/NG units exist to provide capabilities that active duty forces lack (example railroad support).
