Here's a new gun design for TNE. The laser allows the first three shots
(or aimed bursts, in the ARC-10s case) to receive the aimed shot bonus.
Normally a laser sight is only good out to 40 meters, but in conjunction
with the electronic sight this is extended to 400 meters.
The "light power armour" this weapon is intended to kill includes recon
and police models, as well as Imperial Battle Dress. The ARC-10 is not
much good against Neubayern's standard infantry power armour.
Assault Rifle, Caseless, Model 5610
Notes: The ARC-10 is produced by a variety of companies, most of them on
Neubayern. The design is simply an evolutionary development of the Heckler
and Koch G11, developed in the twentieth century. The ARC-10 fires a
powerful discarding-sabot round intended to be lethal even through light
power armour. Unlike the G11, the ARC-10 has no auto-fire capability. It
has an integral laser sight and an electronic sight in the carrying handle.
The ARC-10 is the most widely-used service rifle in the Cluster, with over
50 million manufactured to date. In addition to the Neubayern Army, it is
used by the Neubayern Federation Marine Corp, the NeuBerlin Metropolitan
Police Force, and a variety of smaller police forces on Neubayern. The
ARC-10 was widely exported before the current export restrictions were
adopted in 5620.
