Description

The Heavy Machine Gun was originally created by Clan Smoke Jaguar by improving on the rate of fire of traditional Machine Guns at the expense of range and accuracy.[2] Fielded only by the Clans at first, the Inner Sphere eventually created their own version of Heavy Machine Guns for use by Battle Armor by deriving the design from semi-portable autocannons used by infantry forces.[3]
