Soldier ranks
The total ranks are determined by adding the rank count of all living Soldiers together. Keep in mind that Rookies have a rank count of 0, so hiring a ton of Rookies will not unlock any upgrades.
Each Officer rank requires a minimum Soldier rank. In addition, the Soldier must have completed at least 5 missions since the last promotion (3 with the "Not So Long War" second wave option).
Psionic Soldiers, MEC Troopers and S.H.I.V.s cannot be promoted to Officers, and Officers cannot discover or develop Psionic abilities or be augmented into MEC Troopers.
