***APPEARANCES*** In Vanilla GTA, there are atleast several different appearances and uniforms for Merryweather Units.
	+ The first one appears to be a security division similar to Gruppe Sechs guards, which provide onsite and property protection with uniformed guards. They normally wear the same outfits and are either walking the premises with a guard dog or patrolling in security cars, which are Dilettantes with a distinctive "PATROL" livery.
	+ The second one is a paramilitary force consisting of operatives trained for high-risk operations. They have three types of uniforms:
		- The first uniform (named "Blackops 1") wear relatively light gear, consisting of a cap (either forwards or backwards) bearing the Merryweather logo on them, shades, a polo shirt or a sleeveless shirt, sometimes with a bulletproof vest, camo pants with a gun holster attached to their left leg, and boots. Their arms have tattoo designs and may wear a headset when in an aircraft.
		- The second uniform (named "Blackops 2") wear heavier equipment than the previous operator, consisting of either a military cap or a ski hat (both with varying color and camouflage patterns), sunglasses, a military jacket or a polo shirt, always with bulletproof vest, tactical pants (with holsters, baggies and knee pads) and boots.
		- The third uniform (named "Blackops 3") appears to be a black operations unit. They are identical to the Blackops 2 variant, except they do not wear hats, have sunglasses of different colors and have night vision gear. This variant was added after the Heists Update, and is seen operating around Humane Labs and Research, particularly during *GTA Online* in The Humane Labs Raid and during a Resupply mission and an Air Freight Cargo Steal Mission.
	+ The third one (named "Chemsec 1") is similar in behaviour to the security division. They still wear the cap and shades combo, polo shirt with a bulletproof vest, pants with a gun holster and boots. However, the vests have a red outline and the word "SECURITY" is written in the back of their vests. This variant is only seen operating around Humane Labs and Research, specifically during the mission Monkey Business.
