Realistic Item Names

Description

This mod goes over the weapons, equipment, vehicles, and behemoths and renames everything to be more realistic. That means restoring trademarked manufacturer names, using more accurate military designations where possible, correcting errors, and in one case (the SMG08) renaming a gun because its real name wasn’t actually known to the English-speaking world when it came out and the devs had just guessed.

These new names are sourced mostly from IMFDB, along with Wikipedia and various sources in the citations of both sites.

Some additional considerations have been made, however. Names that are mostly correct are likely to be left alone, some weapons’ full names would be too long to fit on the inventory window and have been shortened (sometimes by renaming a variant to a similar-but-shorter name: the weapon is still the same variant, I just renamed it for space), and some renames are still not fully accurate because I found the “correct” names clumsy and weird. Also, an item with a non-English name will be translated or left in its original language essentially based on which version I personally thought sounded better.
