Summary:
The equipment of mercenary troops should get better as they promote to higher tiers, but I found these discrepancies.

Mercenary swordsman (tier 4) wears a nasal helm over mail, head armor 33.
Hired Blade (tier 5) wears a cervelliere over laced coif, head armor 29.
The mercenary swordsman has a better helmet than the hired blade he promotes into.

Mercenary horseman (tier 4) wields a tier 5 polearm, wide leaf spear.
Mercenary cavalry (tier 5) wields a tier 4 polearm, long infantry spear.
The mercenary horseman changes his good spear for a worse one when he promotes to mercenary cavalry.

These two cases do not make logical sense, because they are bugs in the game design.

Perhaps these bugs are part of the reasons why players complain about the poor quality of mercenary troops.

How to Reproduce: play the game until you have to add mercenaries to your party.
