Combat Movement speed mod

[=FU= Hondarama]

So, I've seen on the Elite wiki that some of the on foot engineers do a mod improving "combat movement speed", but there's literally no explanation as to what that actually means.
Does anyone have even the slightest clue what it does?

I have a prefab suit I got with it on it. I am pretty sure it means you move faster with your weapon drawn or aiming down the sights but havent had a chance to test it yet

As far as I understand its do nothing while you not aiming.

It appears to only lessen the movement penalty while sighting your gun (ADS)

If you want to move more quickly with your weapon drawn, you need "Better weapon handling" on your gun. This is why you suffer almost no movement penalty with sidearms, as they have top-tier weapon handling, but move extremely slow with the Missile launcher.

Has anyone done any science on the Accuracy buffs? I want to see if there's one that tightens the spread pattern of the Shotgun. I love choked shotguns.

I actually weirdly have an answer to this.
For some inexplicable reason the scope upgrade also works as a choke on the shotgun.
Do not ask me why, it might be a bug.

I think it's working as intended, bc otherwise they would have to introduce that class too.
-which they can of course do later; in fact i hope they give us 8000 mods to choose from :D
