Machine Gun Pod

The Machine Gun Pod (MGP) is a secondary/special weapon in Ace Combat: Assault Horizon.

Ace Combat: Assault Horizon
The Machine Gun Pod is an special weapon available exclusively to the MiG-21bis Fishbed and the Su-25 Frogfoot. In both aircraft, it takes the appearance of two gun pods (respectively, the SPPU-22-1 and the UPK3).

When the weapon is equipped, the pods will simultaneously fire. Unlike the basic machine gun, the MGP never overheats, although this advantage comes at the cost of a limited ammo pool, with the Fishbed version having 540 rounds and the Frogfoot having 680. The weapon has a high rate of fire, similar to that of the standard MG. Both the MGP and the basic machine gun can be fired simultaneously for maximum damage. The "Extra MGP" skill can be used to enhance the weapon's ammo capacity.
