In the original RA2, all of the stolen tech units are [[InfantryTypes|infantry]], but this doesn't have to be the case, the stolen tech requirement can be added to all [[TechnoTypes]] produced by barracks, airbases, factories, or construction yards. This means you can have an upgraded [[Wall]] with <tt>RequiresStolenThirdTech=yes</tt>, or an even higher tier [[AircraftTypes|aircraft]] that has both <tt>RequiresStolenAlliedTech</tt> AND <tt>RequiresStolenSovietTech</tt> at the same time.
Infiltrating a War Factory switches the cameos of {{f|Naval|yes|link}} units to the veteran version, but they start out rookie as usual. Same for buildings that undeploy into such units.
 
This functionality can then be further incorporated with [[RequiredHouses]] and/or [[Prerequisite]], to make unlocking various construction options highly specific to certain scenarios and players.

Tiberian Dawn Red Alert Tiberian Sun Firestorm Red Alert 2 Yuri's Revenge

The infiltration of technology centres or labs by a 'Spy' in Red Alert 2, rewards the attacking player with 'stolen tech' traits. These traits are specific to each Side infiltrated:
Enemy Side New Construction Options
Allied (AIBasePlanningSide=0) Unlocks RequiresStolenAlliedTech=yes buildings/units.
Soviet (AIBasePlanningSide=1) Unlocks RequiresStolenSovietTech=yes buildings/units.
YuriCountry (AIBasePlanningSide=2) Unlocks RequiresStolenThirdTech=yes buildings/units. (YR only)

In the original RA2, all of the stolen tech units are infantry, but this doesn't have to be the case, the stolen tech requirement can be added to all TechnoTypes produced by barracks, airbases, factories, or construction yards. This means you can have an upgraded Wall with RequiresStolenThirdTech=yes, or an even higher tier aircraft that has both RequiresStolenAlliedTech AND RequiresStolenSovietTech at the same time.

This functionality can then be further incorporated with RequiredHouses and/or Prerequisite, to make unlocking various construction options highly specific to certain scenarios and players.

Notes

Ares further extends this logic, by allowing infiltration to 'steal' technology specific to a TechnoType, hijacking an enemy Radar, stealing their Super Weapon, and more. See: https://ares-developers.github.io/Ares-docs/new/buildings/spyeffects.html
