The '''M46 Light Anti-Aircraft Gun''' is a [[UNSC Defense Force]] vehicle-mounted rotary machine gun. The successor to the [[M41 Light Anti-Aircraft Gun|M41 LAAG]], the M46 is used as the primary armament on the post-Human-Covenant War [[M12 Light Reconnaissance Vehicle]].


The '''M46 Light Anti-Aircraft Gun''' is a rotary machine gun used by the [[UNSC Defense Force]]. The successor to the [[M41 Light Anti-Aircraft Gun|M41 LAAG]], the M46 is used as the primary armament on the post-war [[M12 Light Reconnaissance Vehicle]]. Due to the removal of the original model's cooling system, and subsequent replacement with a larger gas chamber, the weapon is significantly more powerful than its predecessor. However, it can overheat if fired continuously. Also, the increase in compounded recoil has been known to severely decrease accuracy over long distances.<ref name="O+A">[http://halo.xbox.com/halo4#!an-epic-universe/ordnance-armor/cbbca9b3-5108-41aa-aa21-9b523de68266 '''Halo 4 Official Site:''' ''ORDNANCE + ARMOR'']</ref>
==Design details==
The M46 LAAG maintains most of the M41 LAAG profile; it is a triple-barreled, electric-powered, linkless, belt-fed weapon. Two major improvements over the M41 are the replacement of the cooling system and a larger gas chamber.{{citation needed}}<ref name="O+A">[http://halo.xbox.com/halo4#!an-epic-universe/ordnance-armor/cbbca9b3-5108-41aa-aa21-9b523de68266 '''Halo 4 Official Site:''' ''ORDNANCE + ARMOR'']</ref>
