Medium Machine Guns have extremely uncontrollable sway, inadequate point fire responsiveness, and excessive recoil. Sway and recoil can be significantly reduced via prone or bipod. ** Unlike other Medium Machin Guns, RPD outputs suppression effects akin to Light Machine Guns. * Firing the weapon with the bipod deployed is always preferred, creating a highly stable and accurate fire support platform. If the bipod cannot be used, firing the gun from the prone position is the next best option. ** Firing in short bursts will increase the overall accuracy. It will also conserve ammunition. * The RPD will not hurt hostile armored vehicles, but it can be used effectively against Technicals, Transports, or Logistics Trucks to kill or wound the occupants. == History == <!-- Keep the section short and concise.--> *The RPD is a Soviet machine gun designed by Vasily Degtyaryov from 1943 to 1944 and produced by the Degtyaryov Plant from 1944 to 1960. A precursor to most squad automatic weapons, the RPD was originally created as a lighter and more wieldy replacement for the DP machine gun. == Trivia == * RPD stands for Ruchnoy Pulemyot Degtyaryova (Ручной Пулемёт Дегтярёва), which means in English from Russian Degtyaryov hand-held machine gun. == Gallery == <gallery> rpd.jpg| </gallery> ==See Also== *[[Automatic Rifleman]] *[[Weapons]] == External links == *[[Wikipedia:RPD machine gun|RPD on Wikipedia]] and [[commons:RPD|Wikimedia]] {{Navbox weapons}} [[Category:Weapons]] [[Category:Light Machine Guns]] __FORCETOC__ __NOEDITSECTION__
