Description

After the First Tiberium War, the AR-40 became less and less effective. With the fall of almost every country on the planet -outside of Russia and China, all the remaining nations evolved from either GDI, the Brotherhood of Nod (comparable to Confucianism here), and the Cabal- in the aftermath of the First Tiberium War, GDI had to develop the new weapon internally. The GDI Modular Weapon System Program produced a finely crafted series of weapons based upon a single frame. With a few changes, any weapon can become another. This system would prove unwaveringly effective during the Second Resource War and the GDI-Russo War during the later half of the 21st Century.

The AR Grenadier variant of the weapon is a powerful tool in combat. the 5.5x40mm round in its telescopic polymer case was considered a vast improvement over the AR-40's 8.2x38mm telescopic polymer cased round. This is mostly due to the advent of nanotech based production and the refinement of high-density material machining. Like the AR-40, it uses the electro-pulse firing system ala the Colonial Marines' M41 series of pulse rifles but with a rate of fire only slightly higher than the M16/M4 family of weapons. The weapon is shown here with a 40 round magazine, with various casket and drum magazines being available.

The grenade launcher was fitted for 50mm rounds of various shapes and sizes, ranging from simple training rounds and simple 'HE' rounds that can harm someone in plate armor-esque power armor to advanced intelligent grenades that can seek out concentrations of enemy infantry and micro-missiles used for anti-battlesuit and light anti-vehicle work.

Thanks to its modular nature, the weapon could fit a variety of optics, accuracy enhancements, a full-blown hyper-velocity round conversion kit, and various electroncis. Shown here the weapon is fitted with what is called a 'Smart Red Dot Sight'.
