ARC-920 railgun

The Asymmetric Recoilless Carbine-920 (abbreviated ARC-920 or known simply as the Railgun) is a compact-channel linear accelerator weapon used by the United Nations Space Command. It was designed and manufactured by Acheron Security.

Design details
Like the M99 "Stanchion" Rifle, the ARC-920 uses a series of electromagnets to accelerate its projectiles. The rifle requires a brief charging period before firing high-explosive rounds accelerated to an incredible speed. The explosive yield contained in the round adds to the kinetic force of the impact, making the weapon effective against both infantry and armor.

The weapon lacks zooming capabilities.

Gameplay
Compared to the Spartan Laser, the ARC-920's charging time is half the duration and deals less damage to vehicles. In addition, the travelling time for a fired shot is almost instantaneous.
