The FAMAS in reality.
The FAMAS is a French-made assault rifle. Its development began in the late 60’s during the Vietnam era and it is in wide usage within the French military today, adopted by them in 1978. It uses a bullpup layout with the magazine at the back of the gun and behind the trigger, much like the AUG, and fires the standard 5.56x45mm NATO round from a 25 round magazine. It is featured in Battlefield 2: Euro Force and Battlefield 3: Back to Karkand.
Battlefield 2: Euro Force
The FAMAS is the standard assault rifle issued to the EU Medic kit. It has decent damage, fair accuracy, moderate recoil, and a high rate of fire at 900 rounds per minute. It is also equipped with a 4X zoom scope on its carrying handle, and comes with a 30-round magazine.

FAMAS with Holographic Sight
The FAMAS has been confirmed along with nine other weapons to be in the Back to Karkand expansion.[2] FAMAS was first seen on "Back to Karkand Gameplay Premiere Trailer" with Holographic Sight and Laser sight attached. It appears to be the FAMAS G1 Surbaissé (low profile) variant.
The FAMAS has a high rate of fire and decent power, offset by extremely cluttered iron sights which block most of the peripheral vision around your target, which is made worse by the flash. Using close-range optics can rectify this, providing for an extremely flexible weapon that can compete at all but sniper rifle ranges. The FAMAS is also extremely accurate when burst firing. This weapon is the first unlockable assault rifle of the expansion pack (for the medic class) and can obtained through the completion of the following challenges:
