AF-4 Cyclone

The  is a submachine gun available to the New Conglomerate. It is unlocked through purchase with Certification Points or Daybreak Cash.

The Auraxis Firearms - 4 Cyclone is the New Conglomerate option for a submachine gun an incredibly high damage output, competing primarily with the SMG-46 Armistice. Though the Cyclone's rate-of-fire is considerably lower, the far larger calibre keeps the weapon's damage output up at a highly competitive level, with the gun further being particularly accurate and enjoying a very fast reload. Though the Cyclone's theoretical damage-per-minute is lower, the higher calibre bullet allows it to kill on headshot notably faster at close ranges than the Armistice.

The AF-4 Cyclone's brother, the Blitz GD-10, sacrifices a large amount of the Cyclone's signature damage output for a much larger, 50-round magazine, without sacrificing much (if any) of the accuracy that also allows the Cyclone to remain a threat out to mid-range.

The AF-4 Cyclone, alongside the Eridani SX5 and  SMG-46 Armistice, is part of the so-called 'first generation' of submachine guns, as the three were the first wave of faction-specific weapons to be released in the class.
