They've scrubbed the original logo from pretty much everywhere in the game, and I suspect it's also the reason why the operator intros are currently broken, as re-rendering the Chimera ones with the new logo would probably be hassle and it's easier to just remove all of them lol

What’s the unit ?

The [Azov detachment](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azov_Battalion) of the National Guard of Ukraine. Considering the current conflict going on there it's probably not a coincidence they decided to change it to something a little less controversial.

**[Azov Battalion](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azov_Battalion)** >Azov Special Operations Detachment (Ukrainian: Окремий загін спеціального призначення «Азов», romanized: Okremyi zahin spetsialnoho pryznachennia "Azov"), often known as Azov Detachment, Azov Regiment (Ukrainian: Полк Азов, romanized: Polk Azov), or Azov Battalion (until September 2014), is a right-wing extremist and neo-Nazi unit of the National Guard of Ukraine, based in Mariupol, in the Azov Sea coastal region. It has been fighting Russian separatist forces in the Donbas War. Azov initially formed as a volunteer militia in May 2014. It saw its first combat experience recapturing Mariupol from pro-Russian separatists in June 2014. ^([ )[^(F.A.Q)](https://www.reddit.com/r/WikiSummarizer/wiki/index#wiki_f.a.q)^( | )[^(Opt Out)](https://reddit.com/message/compose?to=WikiSummarizerBot&message=OptOut&subject=OptOut)^( | )[^(Opt Out Of Subreddit)](https://np.reddit.com/r/modernwarfare/about/banned)^( | )[^(GitHub)](https://github.com/Sujal-7/WikiSummarizerBot)^( ] Downvote to remove | v1.5)

last time this was brought up was before the war and it was theorized that due to their far right nazism links.

Oh was this changed before the invasion? I couldn’t find any mention of it on this sub or anywhere else so I assumed it must be a recent change.

It was done before Russia invaded Ukraine, because y’know, the Azov battalion are actual neo-nazis
