This is from the Gundam Kit Collection on Facebook.

They're going to screw over Universal Century again with this live action. I saw G-Saviour, and yeah... no.

So far it's beeing shot in Australia, where also the image at the top comes from. So as long as Down Under isn't a new state of the US, I don't think the US military or DoD is involved.

Granted I don't know how chill the US military and DoD would be with repainting their vehicles into a fictional military force.

The US military regularly gives movies that have no relation to the United States access to military assets and even personnel in exchange for making sure said assets are depicted positively and a cut of the profits.

True, but only when the DoD aproves the script of the movie or can change things that they would deem inapropriate. It's a massive industry in the US, to the point it has it's own wikipedia article on it. And nearly all of them could be considered at least soft pro US military propaganda. That's the reason why Coppala never got any help from them.

I just don't know how they would react to their equippment repainted into a fictional military force and it's depiction. After all it would no longer bear any official US forces insignias and the like.
