Battlefield 1942
The Type 99 is uniquely issued to the Japanese Assault kit. It has a 20 round magazine, moderate accuracy and relatively good power. It can kill in 4-5 shots. It has moderate recoil, but while prone, it has barely none and support automatic fire for longer ranges, although constantly being limited by its 20 round magazine.
