You could, of course, just add GenericPrerequisite=, and have reverse engineered units adhere to that.

That way, a unit could have
[DILDOTANK]
Prerequisite=GASEXS,GAWEAP,GATECH
GenericPrerequisite=Factory,Tech
And would appear at the appropriate technology level on all sides.

It's completely implausible to require Side A to have a bunch of tech buildings to build a high tech unit, and to allow Side B to build the exact same thing in a cave.
