Description

"This beast might fire slowly compared to other saturation weapons that close in fighters use... but give an experienced gunner a solid position and a E-24 and he can give serious problems even to well organized forces not to mention you can shoot munitions down range when others don't even have you in range"
- Gordon Litterman

The E-24E0 is a powerful and perfoming MMG (Medium Machine Gun) this new class of support weapon use larger caliber munitions than standard GPMGs infact the E-24 fire the famous .338 rounds of course in it's CTA version the main advantages of using this powerful munition are the increased lethality and range infact the weapon have 4 times the power on target at 1700 meters compared to the 7.62x51mm munitions fired by an M240 Bravo, the weapon have been choosen mainly for the TF-E need of serious firepower and also to outrange the support weapons of Syndicate-3 drones

As well as the recoil, .338 Lapua, the closest approx, is rather large. You will carry significantly less ammunition.
