New Weapon Request: FN Herstal P90

The classic space age SMG! Went into service in 1990, but development was started in 1986, so by 1989, it’s not outlandish to think that FN either rushed to complete development, given the new robot threat, or even just pushed a prototype to limited production to help in the fight.

I think the spaceage looks would make it fit right in for fighting robots!

A p90 would be awesome in GZ.

But how whould this get to Sweden?

The same way the N16 for example came there.
Or the AI76 (as base game weapon) isn’t swedish, too.

I think the lore is that arms and supplies were dropped by allies after the initial uprising. Since NATO is one of those, and the P90 was originally a NATO design contract, I feel like it all works.

That would be awesome to see. Perhaps in another NATO weapon drop?

The armor-piercing capabilites of the 5,7mm round would come in handy, I think.

Oh, another unique caliber.
Didn’t think of that yet.
I don’t know if that’s so good. Until now I never really used the at-wad because of that.

If they didn’t want to broach the 9x19/9x39 thing again, I’d be okay with them making a slightly fictional version that’s chambered in 5.56mm rather than 5.7mm…although a faithful representation of the 5.7 would be well suited to anti-robot operations I think. A little bullet, but blazing fast.
