The Medici Military is an armed force in Just Cause 3.
General info[]
The Medici Military (Medician language: "Fortias Armate Medicense" - "Medician Armed Forces") is the official military of Medici.
Their duties include national defense, protecting military bases, supporting the D.R.M., suppressing the Rebellion, and responding to Rico Rodriguez when heat is triggered.
They mainly wear beige uniforms, with a red beret, that has a golden eagle on it and red rank badges on their shoulders. Most soldiers have two white stripes on the chest of their uniforms, with "Classe Private", meaning Private, written on the left one, and "Fortias Armate Medicense" on the right one. All uniforms also come with the flag of Medici on the right sleeve.
Pilots flying army fighter jets have "Medici Fortias Aeree" written on their right stripe instead of "Fortias Armate Medicense". They also lack the "Classe Private" stripe, instead they wear a silver eagle on the left side. The pilots flight overall also has a badge on their left sleeve, depicting a red cirlce, with a golden eagle inside of it.
Their ground vehicles and boats are marked with 3 white stars.
Aircraft are marked with the flag of Medici (red, white, and green) and with 3 yellow stars on the white bar. They also come with two numbers next to MAF (possibly standing for 'Medician Air Force') including 07, 08, 12, 22, 26, 43, 57 and 83.
According to one of the D.R.M. grunts, "We have the most powerful army in the Mediterranean". It's unknown if this statement is true in the Just Cause Universe, or if that's merely Medici Military propaganda.
Members[]
- General Sebastiano Di Ravello - Leader.
- Brigadier General De Luca - (formerly).
- At least 9 Commandantes - Base Commanders.
- Sergeant Major Dushku - (formerly).
- Zeno Antithikara - Scientist/Spy.
- Thousands of Soldiers
Bases and facilities[]
Main article: Military bases in Medici.
Like the San Esperito Military and Panau Military, they own a large number of bases all over the nation, but unlike the others, the Medici Military has built some bases underground into large caves while some bases are built on top of high concrete and steel columns. Many of their bases and towns are built on old forts, such as Corda Dracon: Centcom.
The Medici Military built intercontinental ballistic missiles at Cima Leon: Silo during the Cold War.
The military also participates in the Medici Space Program by conducting deep space research at Espia Bassa and Espia Alta.
Unit types[]
There are many varied types of soldiers in the Medici Military.

Regular soldier. These are the most common type of soldiers in the Medici Military.

A female soldier.

Motorcyclist.

Sniper.
There is a glitch where if you hijack a CS Comet with snipers on they will continuously fire at the helicopter regardless of its health until it explodes or the snipers die through other means. Be sure to eliminate them before you fly off in it.

Helicopter pilot.

jet pliot.
They handle several types of military vehicles, but their appearance is different by each type of vehicle. Tank pilots have a helmet with goggles on top of the helmet. Helicopter pilots have a helmet with a visor. Jet pilots have a helmet with a visor and oxygen mask and wear a gray flight jacket different from the above two who wear regular sand color uniform. As seen in the gallery they have a U-55S Pozhar for self defense.
These soldiers can be commonly found piloting Urga Postolkas, CS Navajos, CS7 Thunderhawks, U-7 Dravecs, and less commonly the Urga Hrom D, Urga Racek, and even Urga Mstitels.

Commando or paratrooper.

Soldier wielding a shotgun.
Sometimes shotgunners will shout "Eat buckshot!" and "Meet my boomstick!". Consider this a warning that a shotgunner has spotted you and you need to take them out fast. The "boomstick" is an easter egg/reference to... something.

Soldier wielding a machine gun.

An RPG soldier wield the U-55S Pozhar pistol.

An Medici Military soldier wield the UVK-13 RPG.

"Commandante" or Base Commander.

The officers in the Medici Military. In some of the military bases, one of them will show up to deal with Rico directly once he destroys many assets in that base. Killing him is required to liberate the base. When they show up, they tend to use higher-tier vehicles, including the Imperator Bavarium Tank, Urga Mstitel, Urga Hrom D, and more, making them top-priority targets. When fighting on foot they wield the CS Predator like in the picture in the gallery down below. These also spawn inside of the target cars during the Random Encounter "aerial assassination."
One of these guys killed himself in the opening cut-scene of A Terrible Reaction. He was probably the commander of Vis Electra. Another dead one can be seen in the final cut-scene of The Shatterer of Worlds.
Main article: Black Hand in JC3.
The Black Hand are international mercenaries, hired by either Di Ravello personally, or by the Medici Military. They assist the military in Insula Striate and Insula Dracon, but not in Insula Fonte. In Falco Maxime: Centcom they replace nearly all of the soldiers. See the article for a list of all the Black Hand soldiers.Ranks[]
Note that in the military, ranks and jobs are not the same thing. Someone can be a captain (rank) and work as a base commander (job).
NPC uniform tags list:
- Classe private.
- Sergeant
- Commandante.
- Classe tirators selectionate.
Private[]
- The above regular soldiers, motorcycle soldiers and pilots are probably privates.
- Di Ravello mentions a private Bonnet in his collectible audio diary.
Private is the lowest rank.
Drill Sergeant[]
Di Ravello mentions a drill sergeant Dushku in his collectable audio-diary.
A drill sergeant is a drill instructor. Different militaries, or branches of military, can have different terms for this, such as "drill sergeant" (who presumably works as a drill instructor and holds a rank of "sergeant"). In any case, this is the person who personally trains (instructs) the soldiers (privates).
Sergeant Major[]
Drill sergeant Dushku was promoted to this rank. Note that this is a type of major, not a type of sergeant.
Sergeant major is a relatively high rank that differs greatly by country. It is normally just below colonel. While this rank was originally a command officer rank in the 17th century, in modern times, sergeant major is an appointment given to warrant officers in most armies except the USA and a few other exceptions where it's a rank of enlisted personnel (E-9) with several grades.
Colonel[]
Di Ravello was promoted to this on day 485 of his career.
A colonel is normally just below brigadier general.
Generals[]
- De Luca was a "brigadier general". A brigadier general is normally the lowest level of general. The term originates from a few centuries ago when a person of this rank, also known as just a "brigadier", commanded a "brigade" (about 4000 soldiers (4 battalions)).
- Sebastiano Di Ravello is a "general".
Allies and enemies[]
Allies:
- Black Hand.
- D.R.M.
- eDEN Corporation (rented Insula Lacrima to eDEN).
Enemies:
- The Rebellion.
- Rico.
- Anyone else who opposes them.
Vehicles[]
According to the in-game map info for Porto Le Gratia, Medici uses that port to import tanks and artillery.
Helicopters:
- CS Comet - Unarmed transport helicopter.
- CS Navajo - Heavy attack helicopter. It is equipped with 2 types of missiles, light ones and heavy ones, the latter being the most powerful non-Bavarium missiles. It has weak armor though.
- Urga Hrom D - Large attack helicopter. It is equipped with dual miniguns and missiles.
- Urga Mstitel - Modern attack helicopter with a Bavarium shield, allowing it to become immune for a few seconds before the shield needs recharging. The Mstitel also has vast amounts of armor, able to survive multiple hits from the Navajo's heavy missiles.
- Urga Postolka - Small attack helicopter with a minigun on either side.
- Urga Racek - Small unarmed helicopter able to land on water without sinking. Its purpose is likely reconnaissance, even if it is the slowest helicopter in the game.
Planes:
- CS7 Thunderhawk - Delta-wing fighter plane equipped with homing missiles and a frontal machine gun.
- U-7 Dravec - Larger two-engine fighter plane, equipped with bombs and unguided missiles.
- U41 Ptakojester - Large cargo plane that can carry up to 10 land vehicles.
Ground vehicles:
- CS Baltdjur - 6-wheeled armored personnel carrier with a roof mounted machine gun. The roof mounted machine gun can not be used from the driving position.
- Monorail train - A train seen on the railroads in Insula Striate. It is commonly seen carrying CS7 Thunderhawks and various types of ground vehicles. It has a special missile defense system, where it shoots 10 missiles in a single salvo when enemies get near it.
- Pavouk U-15 - Off-road motorcycle.
- Urga Ogar 7 V8 - Buggy.
- Weaponized Urga Ogar - Weaponized version of the above, armed with machine guns. Only appears on Boom Island if the DLC is bought.
- Urga Fura 570 - Six-wheeled MRAP used for personnel transport.
- Urga Szturm 63A - An MV with a Mounted Gun in a small turret.
- Stria Obrero - A four-wheeler cargo truck, this truck is used for supply and cargo transport, and also is the main vehicle used to transport Bavarium.
- Weimaraner W3 - SUV.
- CS Odjur - 8-wheeled armored vehicle resembling the Ballard M5B1 Scout. Armed with a cannon and coaxial machine gun, both are operated by the driver. This is the main battle tank of the Medici Military.
- Imperator Bavarium Tank - 8-wheeled armored vehicle with a Bavarium shield. It could be an improved version of the above vehicle. Same armament as above. This is the most powerful land vehicle in the Medici Military arsenal.
- Urga Bkolos 2100 - 4-wheeled military armored vehicle, similar to the Harland DTWV-2 Scout and GV-104 Razorback, but more realistic looking. This vehicle is armed with a fast firing light cannon as armament.
- Strangely, the above three vehicles are referred to as "tanks," despite them actually being armored cars/infantry fighting vehicles. They could be designated as "tanks," but such a designation would be highly unusual in real life.
- It is also possible that the military are authorized to use any vehicle, as there was a report of a soldier using a Stria Joia. The D.R.M. has also been seen to at times commandeer any nearest vehicles, so this is likely how the game is meant to work.
Ships:
- A cruiser, or destroyer, which resembles the Kirov-class battlecruiser. This was only seen in a promotional artwork, with no such vehicle appearing in the released game.
- CS Powerrun 77 - Patrol boat resembling Pequod - Harpoon PC 350, but longer. Armed with two machine guns, one on each side.
- Custode 29 - Small military boat with machine gun at its front, similar to the YP-107 Phoenix.
- Military Corvette - Military ship with a single gun turret at the front, similar to the Triton Broadsider.
- Urga Hroch - WW2 - looking landing craft that can transport various types of helicopters or ground vehicles across water.
Weapons[]
The Medici Military uses virtually all the two-handed weapons in the game (minus weapons added by DLC), but there are certain bases where the weapon can be seen (or used) only once. The only heavy handheld weapon the Medici Military uses is the UVK-13.
- CS Predator - commandos and Commandantes.
- Prizrak U4 - female and biker soldiers.
- U-39 Plechovka - regular soldiers.
- U-55S Pozhar - Used by helicopter & fixed wing aircraft pilots, as well as drivers of Custode 29s and CS Powerrun 77s (the ones that appear in heat anyway).
- U-96 Kladivo - Shot gunners.
- USV 45 Sokol - Snipers.
- UVK-13 - RPG operator.
- Urga Vdova 89 - Machine gunners.
- CS27 Misfortune - Very rarely wielded by regular soldiers at a few bases.
- CS110 Archangel - Very rarely wielded by grunts.
- CS Wraith 225R - Very rarely used by female soldiers or D.R.M. grunts.
- Automat U12 and/or UPM61 - Very rarely wielded by grunts. Also used by a pilot of a Urga Racek at Puncta Sud (not used in combat).
- Capstone FH155.
- FOWs - See regional central commands for more details.
- SAMs in Medici.

Conversations[]
Just like rebel soldiers, military soldiers can be overheard speaking in vehicles. Though Rico can’t get into vehicles with them, they will be heard if a roadblock appears and a traffic jam of military vehicles occurs. Some of these quotes are also heard from soldiers patrolling outside vehicles, most commonly in Citate Di Ravello.
- "These so-called Rebels make me laugh! Just a bunch of kids waving guns around. No organisation to speak of. Nothing like the General’s well-oiled machine."
- "I’m fine with being stationed here instead of in the mines. If you get bored here, there’s plenty of seagulls to take potshots at."
- "I wish Di Ravello would let us wear shorts, although I don’t think anyone would take us seriously in them."
- "Hey, hey, you know what my favorite part about being in the Military is? It’s commandeering anything that looks fun - cars, boats, people’s apartments. If I want it, I just wave my gun around and I get it."
- "You know, you wear those fatigues pretty well. Mine are always too big."
- "Oh, I’m so bored. I haven’t seen any combat at all in the last few weeks. I’ll take anything at this point if it means I get to shoot something."
- "One of the other soldiers told me Di Ravello’s in a bad mood today. I was like 'how is that different from any other day?'. Then I looked over my shoulder, just to make sure he wasn’t standing there."
- "I was between joining the military and getting a college education. I made the right choice - I prefer bullets to books."
- "This Rebellion is going to fail. They should just accept that the General is in charge, and that’s how it’s going to stay."
- "I heard when they capture a terrorist, the local police commander practices enhanced interrogation techniques."
- "You want to know how to stay awake? Imagine the General finding you asleep at your post and what he would do to you."
- "Rico Rodriguez better not bring anything funny while I’m around. That idiota won't know what hit him. Then I'll get all the promotions. That'll teach him to bring a grappling hook to a gunfight."
- "I heard we crushed another pocket of rebels a night or two ago. It's only a matter of time now."
- "I'm being deployed to the other side of the island tomorrow. About time, I can't take it here for another second."
- "I'll be leaving town tonight to do a sweep of the countryside. Make sure that the rest of the squad's on alert."
- "Some disgusting homeless man asked me for money for food this morning. You know what I did? I hit him with the butt of my gun and knocked him out, stone cold heh. Speaking of food, what do you think is for dinner tonight?"
- "The military has been good to me. I've never gone to bed with an empty stomach. Can't say the same about those damn rebels."
- "I almost feel bad for anyone stationed at the mountains. Can you believe there's snow up there? You get stationed at an island and then you're stuck in the snow. Now that's funny."
- "I'm exhausted today. I only got six hours of sleep tonight. That's not enough sleep when you're keeping the peace."
- "I've never actually seen Bavarium up close. I've heard that it's blue and that it glows. Do you think that's true that it glows?"
- "This might sound bad but, those masked punks that work for Di Ravello, I think that they are just the dumb ones that don't make it through boot camp. They seem like a bunch of lowlife thugs. Not like us, and definitely not like the Black Hand."
- "The police stations are nice digs. If you're lucky you'll get a post there for a couple of days. They have air conditioning in there and those walls, nothing get past those walls."
- "Have you ever been in the same room as Di Ravello? I was once. I'm not sure I ever need to again. I don't mind serving him, I just don't need to be near him."
- "You gotta take better care of your gun, amigo. I just reworked the action on my rifle. My gun hasn't jammed on me ever since. You should give it a chance sometime."
- "When my shift ends I'm going back to the barracks and crack in open that bottle of red my girlfriend sent me. I haven't seen her in what it feels like months. It's nice to know she still remembers me"
- "I almost detonated a grenade on my hand the other day. I thought I took the pin out and then I didn't and then I actually did! It was really touch and go there for a second. I round up just in time to throw it away. I won't make that mistake again."
- "Keep a look-out for any rebels out here. I've heard from HQ that they're gonna try to rally again. Not sure why, they've failed every time they've tried. I guess fools don't give up so easily."
Radio announcements during heat[]

Trivia[]
- In a promotional screenshot, their helicopters are seen providing cover for the Medici Police Department. See more about that at Cut game content from Just Cause 3.
- Interestingly, they do not respond to Rico in rebel vehicles. However, they will respond to a Rebellion member in a rebel vehicle. This is most likely because too many Just Cause 2 players complained about it.
- A Roadside Event can sometimes spawn 2 dead Medici Military grunts and a commander along with 2 dead rebels. Considering the rank of Commandante is the highest rank in the Medici Military, it's odd as to why he has such few escorts. It is also odd that they are outside of military bases, which typically are the only appearances of them.
- The Rebellion seems to have no problem utilizing captured vehicles from them. Examples can be seen at Alte Potentia and Falco Maxime: Centcom.
- If you get close to some soldiers (so long as you are not in a restricted area), they might say they have no problem working for the general but still dislike his methods and him.
- Just like San Esperito and Panau, the soldiers in Medici bully civilians in oppressed towns, helping the D.R.M. with its task. However, this is not too commonly seen, giving the impression these soldiers don't actively oppress citizens.
- It's unknown who is in charge of the military after the general is killed, but it can be assumed some high ranking officer takes power, likely a second in command (if any) next to the general.
- Presumably, with the end of the conflict, it's likely that someone selected by The Rebellion would be head in charge, and a gradual reform of the military may have taken place.
- Liberating all provinces does not make them disappear, as soldiers can still be seen at unnamed outposts (see among unmarked locations).
- They can also be seen roaming the waters outside of the liberated province. This seems to be the only armed maritime presence out of ports.
- As such, by the end of the game, even though they are militarily defeated, they still maintain various small outposts throughout Medici, most of them in Insula Striate. Weimaraner W3s also still spawn in roads.
- Strangely, while those areas are not restricted, some soldiers may use the gesture they use at restricted areas when seeing the player, waving their hand.
- Their camouflage pattern seems to be based off of the Russian Desert EMR uniform, though this is unknown.
- In concept art and early screenshots of the game, they wear the Swedish M90 Desert camouflage on their uniforms. Their vehicles still retain a fictional red-colored version of the M90 camouflage. Going back to more pre-release material, their vehicles were originally monotone desert colored while concept art depicted them as foliage green colored.
- It is impractical for them to use sand colored uniforms, as there is little to no terrain on Medici with matching coloration besides the man-made bare lands of mine areas. One possibility may be an old tradition for them to wear sand colored uniforms.
- Given that the Di Ravello tapes states that the Medici military had purposely been given outdated equipment by other countries, this is most likely the reason for their uniforms.
- This military force was the first in the entire Just Cause Game Series where they did not have any vehicles with sirens until the Black Hand in JC4.
- However, it is still possible for a Medici Military member or D.R.M. grunt to take a Medici Police Department Stria Joia. This can be rarely seen at some police stations. However, the Stria Joias are technically not their property, making the above statement still valid.
- For unknown reasons, soldiers wielding other weapons besides the standard weapons do not fire them. This can be seen at Le Tutor, Cima Leon: Silo, and a few other bases. This is most likely a glitch or development oversight. This can also be observed from pilots of Urga Raceks that appear as reinforcements.
- Strangely, for the military with the most advanced military chopper in the game series, the Medici Military do not appropriately respond to aerial attack with helicopters of their own. In all other heat systems in the game series, all the other factions opposing Rico send helicopters if Rico is in a helicopter at heat level 1 and 2, but here they only send them at heat level 3 to 5.
- Aircraft can be marked as either "MAF 12", "MAF 26", "MAF 57", or "MAF 83". There's no direct confirmation, but it likely stands for "Medici Air Force" with the number being the vehicles serial number. 83 is a large number of military aircraft for a nation the size of Medici.
