- Weapon system fires a 14 mm x 110 mm round that is capable of shredding armor and igniting flammable components inside of whatever it hits up to light skinned vehicles.
- Is belt fed and low tech construction allows for use in any environment with little maintenance requirements and easy procedures to rectify malfunctions
- Has extreme range and accuracy due to heavy construction of the weapon system and the mounting of the weapon onto either a tripod for dismounted operations or vehicle mounted operations
- Belt Fed and Highly Reliable: This weapon's low tech construction and method of operation is the key operating points as to why you can use this weapon anytime and anywhere so long as you have ammo. This means it doesn't care what the weather's like, what atmosphere you're in, or what the surrounding climate is at all. You simply load a belt, rack that handle and start shooting.
- The ammunition is extremely mean: It's a 14 mm x 110 mm round, which is extremely powerful against infantry and light skinned vehicles. Don't try arguing with the bullet, because, well, it'll take your face off on a near miss, let alone a hit. Oh and did I forget to mention that even if you're behind a wall, if the wall isn't reinforced, the round will still eviscerate you, because it's a 14 mm x 110 mm.
- It's a Heavy Machine Gun: You're not shooting this while carrying it, period. You have mounts for tripod operation or vehicle mounted operation for a reason. Don't be that guy. Please. (Notice that not only is this thing is super heavy, but also has a ridiculous amount of recoil. You're not gonna shoot this thing without it mounted to something solid, period.)
- Ammo is really heavy: It's actual linked ammunition which means that you have to carry every, single, actual round, and it gets really heavy really quick. This means that in order to use this properly, you are gonna have to stay in a static position, or inside a vehicle and any attempts to move a dismounted weapon system will take a long time because as said before, this ammo by comparison is really heavy.
Another weapon system coming from the experience of Sergei's military service on his home world, the heavy machine gun. This weapon system is a belt fed heavy machine gun that utilizes linked ammunition and a low tech construction to bring a highly accurate, highly lethal, and extremely reliable construction into a singular weapon system. It is super heavy which requires it to be mounted to either a vehicle or a tripod for dismounted operations, but also allows for it to be utilized in any environment. It is extremely effective on the defense allowing troopers manning this weapon system to not only engage infantry and light skinned vehicles, but also engage infantry through even through cover, essentially negating all but the heaviest of covers. There is one truth with this weapon system, with most repeaters and the M-240, infantry will stay in cover, but with this, the gunner will laugh, curse you and your cover, and then annihilate you anyways with fully automatic armor piercing fire. So if you're behind the gun, load up a belt and have fun, if you're on the wrong end, pray to your god for mercy, because the rounds have none.
