Weapon Background
Joint research between the US SOCOM and FN Herstal have gave birth to the latest generation of 7.62 firing general purpose medium machinegun for the army of United States. Finished in 2003 and entered full production, Mk48 is a US Naval military version for FN Maximi, a scaled up version of the 5.56 calibre Mk46 (FN Minimi) designed to chamber the 7.62. Mk48 was designed specially for naval based units under US SOCOM commands such as the Navy Seals, replacing the aging M60E4 and M240 out of service of special operational units. Other than SOCOM commanded units, US troops stationed in Afghanistan have also issued with some Mk48 for emergency use.
The Mk48 is a gas operated, air-cooled, fully automatic machinegun, the weapon fires from an open bolt, fed with munition belts from the left side of the receiver. Chambers the 7.62x51mm NATO rounds, Mk48's rate of fire is around 700 rounds per minute, effectively covering up to 800 metres of range and able reach up to a maximum of 3,600 metres of range. The disintegrating belt fed Mk48 feeds from can be chained to any lengths needed, Mk48 have access to large capacity ammo pouch backpack or it can just be fed from a supplied belt.
Compared to the M60E4 and the M240 MG Mk48 is replacing, Mk48 is lighter and more compact, features even more modernized designs such as Picatinny rails placements (Up to 5, one on top of the receiver, 4 on the top bottom and both sides of the weapon forearm) for accessories mounting. Picatinny rail compatible accessories such as the SOPMOD kit, red dot sights ECOS-N are all compatible with Mk48. Other features include a mounted bipod for prone position firing, a tripod mounting lug for tripod mounted firing, the carrying handle that was removed from Mk46 is reintegrated back on the Mk48. Mk48 also have a lot of compatible parts with Mk46 and M240 to simplify the process of on the field repairs.
The lighter mass of Mk48 meant the gun parts are not as durable when compared to M240 parts, the service lifespan of Mk48 is only half that of a M240, due to this reason Mk48 cannot completely replace M240 from main army unit's service.[1] [2]
Character Info
Design
The third T-doll featuring green hair in Girls Frontline, also the fourth character SA contributed to Girls Frontline (Prior being SMG MAC-10
MAC-10 
, SMG VectorVector 
and SMG SkorpionSkorpion 
). Mk48 is one of the taller T-dolls in the game, assuming the weapon is drawn to size, Mk48's body height estimates around 170cm. Mk48 as a MG is currently in service with the US Navy Seals, hence the golden emblem of Navy Seal she is wearing on her chest.[3] Hair ornament resemble a letter F, likely to represent FN Herstal.
Personality
Sadistic personally featuring a superiority complex, Mk48 is the typical "You are all useless" type character, subsequently she is not a very well liked character in the eyes of other T-dolls. Mk48 is often nicknamed Big Bro of the Mk46, in the designing process SA stated that elements of a "big sister" was added to Mk48's overall appearance.[3]
Quotations of Mk48 reflects upon the fact that she belittles M240 and MG M60M60 
greatly, her introduction also mentions about her low service lifespan.
Mk48 likes excitement, her favourite hobbies include wrestling and punishment game, a prime candidate for those Commanders who likes having a dangerous character around.
In-game
As a MG unit with the "Hunting Impulse" skill, while skill is active Mk48's shots are guaranteed critical hits. Examples of other MGs with similar skills are MG LWMMGLWMMG 
and MG AEK-999AEK-999 
, however Mk48 have the strongest skill bonuses out of all the Hunting Impulse MGs. it is also worth noting that none of the 5* rarity MGs have Hunting Impulse skill, which means Mk48 currently holds the strongest magnitude Hunting Impulse skill.
When her skill is toggled as auto activation, typically only half of Mk48's initial salvo can benefit from her skill, the skill will not active again until she reloads for her third salvo. She can be considered as strong as the Combo buff type MGs such as MG MG5MG5 
and MG PKPK 
, because of how much her DPS increases when the skill is active.
Her grid buff suggests she is better placed on the back line, ideally in position 1, but position 4 and 7 are also viable due to the frontal buff position, she provides rate of fire bonus to frontal SG units.
