I could see there being different qualifications/badges one could obtain as a Cobra Trooper that would then help in moving into one of the more elite/more specialised branches.
Cobra still has Army, Navy, Air Force. So there would be different qualifications. But there's just Troopers and Vipers.
I'm trying to trim it down and keep it less confusing.

Think of the Viper as the Rangers, Eels as SEaLs and Snow Serpents as Delta Force.
For me, Cobra's troopers are made up of ex-military, gang members, etc.. You advance by skill. So the guys in the Viper corps would be equal to Special Ops guys. The named Cobras are equal to, and maybe better in some cases, then the Joes.
They talk about Tier One operators. The Joes would be Tier Two and so would the named Cobras.
