AP30 Shredder

The  is a belly weapon available to the Liberator. It is unlocked by default.

The Armor Piercing 30 Shredder is a heavy anti-armor chaingun, capable of consistent damage output to vehicles. The Shredder's role is promoted by its incredibly high damage-per-shot, high firerate, and notably quick reload speed, although the weapon's rather unfavorable damage fall-off demands the gunship fly within relatively close range of the target lest it suffers up to a 28.5% decrease in damage output, and the lack of splash damage hampers its usage against infantry.

Ribbons and Medals
It is possible to earn both Ribbons and Medals while using the. Each ribbon is a standard reward for achieving a set amount of kills with the gun. Medals are awarded upon reaching kill milestones with the weapon.
