When Adding A Cameo, this flag defines the sidebar image used for a veteran version of this unit. Normally this can only be seen whenever a Spy infiltrates either a Barracks or a War Factory, thereby enabling production of veteran units. It does not apply to VeteranUnits.
The general naming convention of existing cameos is: ____uico.shp, where ____ is the first four letters of your cameo's filename. Cameos should generally have an 8-character filename followed by the .shp extension. Normally this would be ____icon.shp, but veteran icons are usually given the suffix of 'uico' instead.
This tag generally is only applicable to Infantry and VehicleTypes, as you cannot attain the ability to build 'veteran buildings' as they do not exist in an unmodded YR, and more importantly their production center, the Construction Yard provides no inherent spy functionality. Pad-built AircraftTypes at this time also cannot utilize the tag, as a spy entering a building with Template:TTL would provide a radar blackout, not veteran aircraft. The AltCameo possibility for non-pad bound aircraft or VehicleTypes with the fly locomotor is unknown.
It should also be noted that although units with Template:TTL technically are VehicleTypes, they cannot suppport this logic probably because of the many logic splits made between naval and ground vehicle production centers.
