Howa Type 89 (M16)

Your favourite raifu from the land of anime is here. Perfect for use on Japanese themed maps such as Yama.

Howa Type 89 5.56mm Assault Rifle ported from MMD, which is apparently from this Fallout Nexusmods[www.nexusmods.com].

Standard issue service rifle of the Japanese Self-Defence Force (JSDF), the Howa Type 89 replaced the outdated Howa Type 64 battle rifle and was introduced into service in 1989, used exclusively only by the Japanese armed forces. The Type 89 is heavily based off the ArmaLite AR-18 design and features 4 different trigger groups: Safe, Semi, 3rnd Burst, Auto. Although unique style STANAG Magazines are issued with the Type 89 most distinctive by the bullet indicating peekholes on the left side, standard NATO issued STANAG Magazines used for the M16s can also be accepted, with the cost of the inability of the bolt locking back on an empty chamber.

- Replaces the M16 Assault Rifle

- SureFire flashlight
- Insurgency AR firing sounds
- KF2 AR-15 Handling sounds
- ImBrokeRU animations

*Note(s):
- Since the original Type 89 model by Michau2 utilises the standard NATO STANAG magazine, I've decided to use the magazine model from Soldier Front 2's Type 89 to more correctly reflect on the rifle's bolt catch feature.
