Hk416

Trivia

• After the release of the Kalika Specialist Case, this weapon has become less common than its Epic Variant, Baron’s M416 CQB.
• Some players prefer this gun over the Epic Variant because of: the ability to fully customize it (at the Gun Emporium), the sleek camouflage and the original M416 CQB sound.
• If a player were to fully customize the M416 CQB CAMO, its stats would exceed those of the Baron’s M416 CQB variants. The CQB CAMO surpasses the Baron’s M416 CQB because of its superior damage, decreased recoil, higher accuracy and faster rate of fire. Although the magazine size of the CQB CAMO is the standard capacity of 30 and has slightly less portability, it compensates by having the ability to be customized in the Gun Emporium where its full potential is revealed to be statistically superior to its Epic variant.

Summary

Compared to the other 5.56mm assault rifles, in its unmodified state the M416 is fairly similar to the others besides its slightly faster rate of fire compared to the SCAR-L, however its strong points are the fact that it can accept the most modifications of any of the assault rifles, accepting muzzle, magazine, stock, lower and upper rail attachments, as well has having exceptional stability, only bested by the AUG. A fully modified M416 is therefore highly sought after as its very low recoil allows for controllable fully automatic fire, even with a 4x ACOG Scope attached.

The M416 will deal maximum damage out to 60 meters, with damage reaching a minimum at 445 meters.

Weapon Background[edit]

During a collaboration between the US Army Delta Force R&D department and the German fire arm company, H&K, a European variant of the AR-15 platform was born. The new carbine project was originally named HKM4, but was later on changed to HK416 after a law suit was filed by Colt Defense in regards to the trademark infringement of the M4 name.

Primarily chambered in the 5.56x45mm NATO cartridge, the HK416 is a short-stroke gas piston operated, rotating bolt, selective fire carbine. Feeding on standard issue NATO STANAG magazines, the HK416 is able achieve a rate of fire of 700-900 rounds per minute. The rifle’s default iron sight provides an effective firing range of 300 metres.

The HK416 features Picatinny rail placements along the top of the upper receiver, as well as on the top, bottom, and sides of the handguard. It is compatible with all forms of combat accessories NATO’s member states, which fit onto the rails of the rifle to allow it to adapt to a wide variety of tasks. The RIS handguard does not come in contact with the barrel, which is «free-floating» to improve the rifle’s accuracy by reducing the impact of the handguard’s movements on that of the barrel. The bottom rails can mount a large number of attachments, including a fore-grip or a 40mm grenade launcher (usually the AG36/M320 style), while the side rails are typically occupied by tactical lights/lasers and/or other combat accessories. The weapon also features a folding front iron sight, paired with a rear sight similar to that of a G3. The operator can make use of it should they not wish to mount optics.

The HK416 may be visually similar an AR-15 rifle, but it features several technological innovations from H&K. Their HK50, XM8 and L85A2 projects served to provide valuable experience in the development of the HK416. The differences between the HK416 from the other AR-15 derivatives include the direct impingement mechanism. The HK416 uses the proprietary short-stroke piston mechanism developed by H&K, which was derived from the G36. Other minor features include the newly designed adjustable telescopic butt stock and pistol grip to improve the over all ergonomics of the weapon.

Military/policing units all over the world are adapting the HK416 and its variants into their arsenal due to its undeniable reliability, performance, and modularity. Starting with the Norwegian army (HK416N), the United States special operation groups such as Delta Force and DEVGRU SEALs have also followed suit and have begun the process of phasing out their inventories of M4A1 carbines. The French army is also planning on gradually replacing their FAMAS F1 with the HK416F. For various reasons, the HK416 (likely due to the tremendous cost of replacing a service rifle) has yet to replace the G36/HK50 as the main service rifle of the German Bundeswehr. However, the Bundeswehr has purchased some HK416A5 rifles and given the designation of G38 for them, likely for the use of their elite units.

Trivia

• It was released on Combat Arms Europe’s «Second Wind» Patch, but wasn’t released in North America until the 24th.
• During its preview sale, the M416N was available from October 24th through the 30th for 20% off.
• In the game files, the weapon was called «HK416N». This is most likely due to the fact that the German firearms manufacturer Heckler and Koch makes the M416 in real life.
• The M416N has a pre-attached ACOG scope (not the TA1 and TA3), as it does not display Health and Ammo or Range (like the INSAS Rifle or the MP5SD6).
• The M416N has an integrated ACOG Scope that appears to be cosmetically identical to the ACOG TA3.
• The M416N, M14 SE and the G11 are the only NX Standard Assault Rifles to have an integrated ACOG scope. However, both the M14 SE and the G11 have ACOG scopes that are cosmetically different from the original TA1 and TA3 scopes.

Overview

This gun differs from its other popular variant, the M416 CQB, in many aspects. The M416N beats the CQB in damage by a single point. However, this rifle is also 4 points lower in portability and has recoil greater than the CQB by 2 points. The M416N also features a slightly faster reload rate. Because the accuracy and the rate of fire are the same between the M416N and the M416 CQB, the M416N is slightly more deadly at longer ranges due to its ACOG sight.

This weapon is slightly harder to use than the M416 CQB, but this gun is specifically tailored for those who can handle the M416’s recoil and those who prefer an ACOG scope. For beginners, the CQB will be easier to use although this gun is still very noob-friendly.

Performance Analysis

Accuracy and Recoil

The H&K 416c has the best accuracy statistic of all ultra-compact assault rifles. In comparison to SMGs, only one SMG has better accuracy; the H&K MP5SD Spec. All in all, this is a fairly huge advantage, especially for a novice player who doesn’t have many accuracy buffs from Skills and Weapon Modifications.

However, the recoil statistic of the H&K 416c isn’t so great.

Damage, Penetration, and Fire-Rate

The H&K 416c has a very good damage statistic considering its weapon-type.

Meanwhile, the fire-rate of the H&K 416c is quite good too. Some sources say that there isn’t much difference between a fire-rate of 80 points and, say, a fire-rate of 88 points. On the Wiki, these fire-rates are regarded as being roughly the same.

The H&K 416c has the same penetration as the M4A1 Custom assault rifle, at 30 points. This is considered to be a good amount of penetration, though not great.

Visual Recoil

The H&K 416c has very high visual recoil. The recoil is very disorienting as it constantly jiggles the reticule (while in aim-to-sights mode) both up and down and left and right, tracing a «V» shape across the screen. The bullets are actually landing roughly near the bottom of the V.

Due to the high visual recoil, players will have difficulty attacking opponents at mid to long-range whilst in the aim-to-sights mode. The bullets aren’t actually more inaccurate due to this visual recoil. Instead, the visual recoil simply makes it more difficult for the player to manually aim.

Mobility

The H&K 416c has very high mobility. In comparison to the Magpul PDR-C, it has 6 more points of mobility, at 80 points rather than 74. The H&K 416c has equal mobility to the Noveske Diplomat 7.5.

The higher mobility of the H&K 416c in comparison to the Magpul PDR-C is very significant though not exactly game-breaking. Depending on the play-style, its advantages may vary.

Reload Speed

The H&K 416c doesn’t have an optimal reload speed. It has 66 points of reload speed whereas the Magpul PDR-C and the Noveske Diplomat 7.5 both have 77 points of reload speed. However, 66 is still on par with many standard assault rifles such as the ACR-C.

The faster reload speed of the Magpul PDR-C in comparison to the H&K 416c can really make a big difference. This is especially true since both weapons are optimal for fast-paced gameplay.

Ammunition

The H&K 416c is significantly hindered in that it only has 5 total magazines rather than 6, 7, or even 8. Meanwhile, the Magpul PDR-C and the Noveske Diplomat 7.5 both have 7 total magazines. This lack of reserve ammo can make a huge difference when the player is trying to achieve long KillStreaks. Note that all three weapons have 30-round magazines.

Damage Fall-Off and Effective Distance

The H&K 416c has very good damage fall-off and a very good effective distance in comparison to similar weapons. Furthermore, unlike the Magpul PDR-C, the H&K 416c can equip tactical devices, which can further increase its effective distance.

However, the great damage fall-off and effective distance may not prove to be too useful as a consequence of the very high visual recoil.

Overview

The H&K 416c is an . It features a blend of performance aspects from assault rifles and submachine guns.

The H&K 416c features very high accuracy, very high recoil, moderate damage, moderate penetration, a very fast fire-rate, very high mobility, a moderate reload speed, moderate damage fall-off, a moderate effective distance, a standard magazine size of 30 rounds, and a low amount of reserve ammunition (note: it has 5 mags in total, rather than , , or even ).

One major cosmetic downside of the H&K 416c is that it has very high visual recoil, perhaps the worst of any assault rifle in the game. This reduces its capabilities at mid to long-range.

Overall, the H&K 416c is a great weapon. However, due to its high visual recoil, the Magpul PDR-C SMG is generally a better choice for the particular niche which the H&K 416c fills. Of course, the Noveske Diplomat 7.5 is better than both weapons within this niche.

Design

Artist NIXOO commented on the design of HK416 on the Official Girls’ Frontline Art Book:

HK416 is an improved model of AR developed by Heckler & Koch for the US military market, she is somewhat related to the members of AR team. (HK416是hk公司针对美军市场的改良型AR，和AR小队有一定的渊源，）

I incorporated various design from UmiNeko’s AR team characters and added various features of Germany.（所以设计的时候在整体风格上参考了海猫的AR小队设计，并且添加了很多德国元素，）

Such as the German special forces KSK’s beret and beret badge, ‘Kommando Spezialkräfte’ being written on her chest, the hair pin design came from the German Iron Cross, while the high collar design came from Bundeswehr’s combat uniform.（比如特种部队KSK的贝雷帽和帽徽，胸前写着Kommando Spezialkraefte，KSK名称的英文拼写，发卡也是由铁十字变形而来。衣领的样式则来自德国国防军作战服特色的高龄。）

By the way, the teardrop on her face symbolizes vengeance~（顺便一提：脸上眼泪团代表复仇~）

A5 variant of HK416 is currently in service with the German special forces KSK, which is likely the reason NIXOO incorporated designs from the said military unit. The ‘blood tear’ tattoo under HK416’s left eye is likely based on the HK’s defeated in a lawsuit against Colt about the copyright infringement of the name of «HK M4».

Overview

Much like the purpose of its real-life version, the 416 is a newer system that tries to fill gaps the M4A1 possesses. Although they seem to have very similar characteristics at first glance, the two rifles do perform differently overall. While the in-game Shop statistics only show a slight advantage by being two points lighter and an extra point less on recoil, they can be radically different depending on the users’ play style.

During in-game comparisons, this rifle has extremely low recoil, which is especially noticeable when looking through an optic. Even with a higher rate of fire, the 416 is controllable for longer automatic firing, whereas the M4A1 suffers with erratic bullet spread after a sustained burst. Unlike certain weapons under the same category, the 416 is a strong multitasking system and can be a formidable, highly-controllable assault rifle up to its maximum range without sacrificing firepower or accuracy.

Пулемет M249 не относится к AR, но мы включили его в статью как автоматическое оружие. Его можно найти только в air-дропах, но в некоторых ситуациях — очень грозное оружие: слаб при атаке, но хорош при дефе домов, укрытий, прекрасно останавливает автомобили, превращая их в решето.

На пулемет нельзя повесить множество модулей, но ему это и не надо. Если принять положение лежа, то отдача от стрельбы очередью снижается до минимума.
