The model of 'Smartgun' issued to the Almayer is different from the more popular auto-targeting model. The '''M56 'Smartgun'''' is a four-part system, consisting of a combat harness, power pack, Heads-Up Display, and the Smartgun itself. The powerpack contains five belts of fifty rounds each, in addition to the weapon's inexhaustible power supply. An extra power pack can be found inside the vendor. The smartgunner HUD functions similarly to meson scanners and night vision goggles, allowing target acquisition in complete darkness, and easy Identification- Friend or Foe in combat situations. Note that the M56 Smartgun has inbuilt IFF detection meaning that you'll be able to target enemies behind marines in front of you, the user, in short this means that while using the M56 smartgun you cannot friendly fire a fellow squad member unless you disable the IFF.

"LET'S ROCK!" ―Pvt. Vasquez, Aliens

While most of the Marines can put their Pulse Rifles on burst and keep shooting, that may not be enough. You are the Squad Smartgunner, filling the futuristic role of the automatic rifleman, using your heavy machinegun to provide suppression, overwatch, fire support and turn your enemies into swiss cheese.

Squad Smartgunner

Like the Squad Specialist, you'll have access to a heavy weapon -- in your case, it's the M56 Smart Gun. Squad Smartgunners are expected to not only employ their special gear but also their greater understanding of tactics. Squad Smartgunners hold the rank of Lance Corporal, putting them a cut above the typical Squad Marine. Like all marines, the Smartgunner's weapon is treated as an extension of themselves, and as such, Smartgunners know their firearm, inside and out.

Equipment Rack: Essential Smartgunner Set

Equipment: Description:
SmartGun.png
M56 Smartgun
The most complicated weapon available to a marine. Sadly, the Smartgun lacks any auto-tracking capabilities. It does, however, have an impressive 250 round ammo pool to draw from, an inbuilt infrared sensor allowing great visibility in low-light conditions, deals a good amount of damage per bullet with a high rate of fire, have burst fire capabilities, an automatic reloading system, and the coup de grace being that due to the gun's toggle-able complex targeting algorithms each bullet will not hit any fellow marine due to the enabled IFF tracking. This allows a Smartgun operator to fire freely through a group of marines without fear of hitting them. The Smartgun requires a special harness to lift and will automatically retract to the harness suit storage when the user is knocked down or else loses hold of the weapon. Like the M5 RPG, the user must stand still while reloading.


Very few marines have training in the M56 Smartgun system. Among them are You, the Squad Specialists, the Commander, and the WY Smartgunners.


Ammunition:
PowerPack.png
M56 Power Pack
Carries two hundred and fifty (250) Smartgun rounds that passes through friendlies by an IFF (Identify Friend/Foe) system. Click the icon in the top left to reload your M56 and be sure to stand still while reloading. Notably can be refilled by restocking into the Requisition's Automated Munitions Vendor.

Tactics

As a verified badass in the USCM, you'll want to employ tactics in combat which may end up saving your life, or the life of others. The tactics you use as a smartgunner boil down to use the Smartgun's IFF tracking to your advantage, what is meant by this is that you shouldn't enter any room as the point man, you should always be behind the point man and potentially riflemen as you can fire past them and into the enemy if they try and attack. Your rank as the Smartgunner is Lance Corporal [LCpl] this means that you can order the standards around and pull rank in certain situations, just keep in mind that your orders can be overturned by Medics/Engineers+.


Being a Smartgunner is a crucial support role due to how you fundamentally can't friendly fire meaning that if your squadmate gets pounced or tackled two marines in front of you, you can still fire directly at the alien attacking. This is essentially how smartgunner should be played, and you're a support role, not a point man. Your sole purpose is to fire past friendlies and into the enemy.
