TACTICS:The KS-25 is a weapon that is capable of rapidly firing high ballistic performance rounds from a very large magazine. Any squadron able to afford its firepower will easily experience adeptness at bringing down targets at a close range. The weapon's accuracy and range are its weaknesses however and are likely to endanger its wielder. Giving it to an operator with a high Ranged Combat proficiency is recommended.
Recommended gear:
- Bandoliers/Carrier Harnesses decrease the amount the time the wielder is vulnerable after depleting the magazine.
- Glasses improve the wielder's ability to hit targets from further away, with some variants improving accuracy.
- Extended Mags increase the wielder's combat endurance with each magazine.
