Hello, this is XboxAhoy and this is the final episode of my Black
In this episode we're covering the G11.

It fires a 3-round burst, and is unlocked once you've purchased all of the other assault rifles.

The G11 is a prototype German weapon, designed by Heckler und Koch.

Development started in the late 1960s, and the first prototypes emerged in 1970. Later designs entered field testing in the 1980s, and the design was finalised in 1990.

The G11 was intended to be a highly-engineered, modern replacement for the G3 battle rifle: a high-tech weapon fitting for a space age era.

Perhaps the most notable feature of the G11 is its use of caseless ammunition: rather than using a brass cartridge to contain the charge, the propellant is instead moulded around the bullet, eliminating the need for case ejection.

Such a change is fraught with engineering difficulty, however - the least of which is heat dissipation, as the traditional brass cartridge acts as a heatsink for thermal energy generated upon firing.

Early models were prone to ammunition cook-off: the chamber would heat up to a temperature that would spontaneously ignite a round, resulting in uncontrollable automatic fire.

Nevertheless, the caseless concept was perfected with help from Dynamit Nobel, and after a series of prototypes and field testing, the improved G11K2 variant went into limited production in 1990, with 1000 units produced.

With this weapon proving significantly more effective than the now-venerable G3 in testing, it seemed as though the G11 would be the first service rifle to use caseless ammunition.

However, the project was scuppered by the reunification of East and West Germany in 1991 - political reorganisation and a lack of funding would be the weapon's downfall.

Since the scrapping of the project, others have flirted with caseless designs: but none have come to fruition.

Ultimately, the German Bundeswehr would replace the G3 rifle with the more traditional G36 design.

The G11's caseless ammunition was of a custom design: the 4.73-by-33 millimetre round.

Magazines are of a standard box type, and in-game hold 48 rounds total.

Damage is moderately low, with per-shot lethality on par with the low damage automatic rifles.

You'll need 3 shots to kill at close range, and 4 at a distance.

This means the per-burst lethality is, on average, lower than that of the M16, which can potentially kill in just two shots.

The G11's rate of fire is much higher, however: firing at 1250 rounds per minute within the burst, for a total effective sustained rate of about 525 rounds per minute.

This faster fire rate means the weapon can more effectively tackle moving targets, and has a lower time-to-kill upon a lethal burst.

Recoil is very mild too, with the G11 able to put 3 bullets in a very small area: while you may not be able to down a target in a single burst at long range, with such low recoil the G11 can place multiple bursts on the same target in relatively quick succession.

Aim time is standard for the assault rifles, at 250 milliseconds - and reloads are moderately quick, at 2.7 seconds: given the large magazine and conservative usage of ammunition, reloads are seldom an issue with the G11.

One interesting trait is the weapon's superior hipfire performance: it boasts the highest degree of accuracy from the hip of all assault rifles, sharing the same performance as an SMG.

This means it is quite effective at a closer range - and while you do need an entire burst to connect to kill, the G11 is far more likely to emerge unscathed in a close-range gunfight than the M16.

The G11 is a very strong primary weapon that rewards accurate players with lightning-quick lethality.

A well placed burst won't give your opponent any chance to fight back, and the G11's generous magazine means you can place burst after burst downrange quickly.

A blend of beneficial traits means this weapon can be used at any range effectively - great hipfire accuracy and low recoil means that the G11 is seldom left wanting in a firefight.

However, the G11 is subject to the usual detriment of a burst-fire weapon: you are highly reliant on first-burst lethality to ensure you preserve your advantage.

The delay between bursts means automatic weapons have time to catch up, and could spell your doom against a savvy foe.

Still, despite some weaknesses the G11 is still a compellingly effective primary weapon - capable of closing out an enemy assault and deflecting entire groups of enemies from a good position.

While the burst weapons tend to be more effective at a mid-to-long range, the G11's rate of fire and superior hipfire round out the G11's versatility.

In most cases this caseless German rifle shines: if you're comfortable with a burst-fire weapon, elect the G11...

...and you'll find yourself in killstreak heaven.
