Official Description

An improved chaingun with great firerate and versatility. Featuring six carbon-polymer barrels it can fire three types of ammo: armour piercing - AP, high explosive HE, and incendiary IN. It also supports heavier but expensive depleted Uranium armour piercing (DUAP) rounds for maximum damage against armoured targets.

Battle Implications

Though heavy this weapon has a relative good accuracy, with best results in the hands of experienced soldiers. The drawback is that can be fired only in a standing position and the large ammo consumption. Firing modes: - directed(normal) shot: 10 rounds - spread shot: 20 rounds fired over an area (more TUs required), for shoting multiple targets. DUAP rounds can pass through walls, causing half damage at impact.
