RA-12 Monsoon

The PNA RA-12 Monsoon is a Panauan assault carbine derived from the Columbian M10 carbine. The RA-12 is a gas-operated, magazine-fed, selective fire, shoulder-fired weapon with a foldable skeleton stock. Like the M10, it fires the widely-used 5.56mm round.

The RA-12 has selective fire options, allowing it to fire either semi-automatic, three-round bursts or fully automatic. The carbine is equipped with attachment rails to mount various attachments, including sights and grenade launchers.

The RA-12 is heavily used by the Panauan Military. It is currently the main weapon of the Panauan Army and can also be found used by Panauan Navy troops. It has also been exported to other nations in the region.

Design
The RA-12 and its variants, much like the M10A2C, fire the widely-proliferated 5.56x45mm round and are gas-operated, magazine-fed, selective fire firearms. They can be fitted with either a foldable skeleton stock or a solid polymer stock.

As with many carbines, the RA-12 is handy and more convenient to carry than a full-length rifle.
