I don't want to give away too much if you haven't been playing Fallout since the very beginning but the NCR is not started until years after the first game when a person the vault dweller helps, organizes their village to become the New California Republic.
We don't know when this vault opens. It hasn't been mentioned in previous games so it might have opened and failed before anything else from series starts or it will take place many years later and we just haven't seen the NCR and the other factions in the teasers.
~~Good point, we don't know when the show takes place.~~ But the Brotherhood have a Prydwen like aircraft. They didn't have that in the first two games.
True so some time after the Arroyo incident, the brotherhood would have taken vertibird tech from the enclave after the chosen one took them down for the first time.
This assumes the writers for the show give two shits about the lore. They might only use the lore as set dressing for generic post apocalyptic trash.
In the Vanity Fair article. Says the show takes place 9 years after the events of Fallout 4, in 2296. So safe bet that is the Prydwen. 🤡 🌎
Also the NCR is not in the promotional materials from Amazon/Bethesda.
