Trivia

The IAR appears to be derived from the R228A1 MRS, sharing the same lower receiver. However, the IAR sports a longer barrel which comes standard with a muzzle brake, an integrated sling mount, a larger optic likely with greater magnification, and a modified fore-end which is issued with a bipod instead of an angled foregrip. The relationship between the IAR and the R228 would be similar to the real-world M27 IAR and the HK416, the RPK and the AKM, or the L86 LSW and the L85.

The IAR appears to have on its right magazine well the inscription: "ECHO, R228A1 MRS, Cal 5.56 mm x 45". This is an identical bullet size to 5.56x45mm NATO, a cartridge that would have been introduced over 250 years before the debut of the R228 and IAR.
