Private military company

Private Military Companies or PMC's are "Mercenaries-For-Hire", consisting of soldiers employed to take part in military action and often belonging to a state which is not directly involved in the conflict. Usually hired warriors, wanting pay for their duties, mercenaries are often known by the government but rejected. Although rejected, if the time comes when a nation needs extra troops or "dirty work" to be done, they would probably hire these mercenaries.

Most mercenary groups often break off of former government or military, like with Gurlukovich's group of Pro-Communist soldiers. In 2014, the five largest group of PMC's are working under a single mother-company named Outer Heaven, ultimately headed by Liquid Ocelot. Logistically, technologically, and tactically advantaged, they are deployed all over the globe with the use of high-tech, high-end technology on the battlefield, and can come in and out of any conflict with minimal casualties. They are a fighting force seemingly unstoppable as long as their contractors keep the cash flowing with the help of the war economy. Liquid, having accumulated enough funds to launch an armed insurrection against the United States as a means of challenging The Patriots, seeks to gain control of their SOP as a means of relinquishing any qualms they would have against fighting their primary contractors.

The known Outer Heaven PMC's are:
 * Praying Mantis
 * The Werewolves
 * Raven's Sword
 * Outer Haven

Liquid Ocelot also runs his own private strike force named the FROGS.
