 With the aging [[beschutzer]] nearing its operational end, the [[faction:abwehran_star_empire:military:abwehran_armed_forces]] called for a new rifle for planetary operations.  Both [[faction:abwehran_star_empire:economy:kfe:kaiserlich_f_e]] and [[faction:abwehran_star_empire:economy:kwb:kaiserlich_waffenerbauer]] stepped up to the challenge with the new MDR-06 Field Rifle.  With improved durability and versatility over its predecessors, the Field Rifle is the one mass driver rifle to replace the standard [[beschutzer]] of old. With the aging [[beschutzer]] nearing its operational end, the [[faction:abwehran_star_empire:military:abwehran_armed_forces]] called for a new rifle for planetary operations.  Both [[faction:abwehran_star_empire:economy:kfe:kaiserlich_f_e]] and [[faction:abwehran_star_empire:economy:kwb:kaiserlich_waffenerbauer]] stepped up to the challenge with the new MDR-06 Field Rifle.  With improved durability and versatility over its predecessors, the Field Rifle is the one mass driver rifle to replace the standard [[beschutzer]] of old.

-**Weapon Sight: The Field Rifle has four modes of sighting on the weapon.  The old 'iron sights' are still available if a user were to remove the scope attachment, but they would lose the other valuable modes.  With the scope attachment, a user is able to use two modes: Holosight and Telescopic.  Holosight is a reflexive sight used in close-quarters situations.  This usually superimposes a reticule in front of the user's vision when they look through.  Telescopic enables a user to get a closer picture on the situation with a maximum zoom of 10x normal vision.  The Four Mode requires the usage of the new [[faction:abwehran_star_empire:technology:equipment:light_infantry_armor]]: Camera view. On the scope itself, is a tiny fiber optic camera that is able to transmit what it sees to the Armor's helmet visor via touch connector near the safety mechanism. +Weapon Sight: The Field Rifle has four modes of sighting on the weapon.  The old 'iron sights' are still available if a user were to remove the scope attachment, but they would lose the other valuable modes.  With the scope attachment, a user is able to use two modes: Holosight and Telescopic.  Holosight is a reflexive sight used in close-quarters situations.  This usually superimposes a reticule in front of the user's vision when they look through.  Telescopic enables a user to get a closer picture on the situation with a maximum zoom of 10x normal vision.  The Four Mode requires the usage of the new [[faction:abwehran_star_empire:technology:equipment:light_infantry_armor]]: Camera view.
