The RPK-12 is a light machine gun featured in Battlefield 4. It is unlocked upon completion of the Support Expert gold tier assignment. Much like the U-100 MK5, the RPK-12 is a very stable and accurate support weapon, with a low rate of fire. It has the advantage of a high-capacity 60-round magazine. It is essentially the same as the RPK-74M from Battlefield 3, but with a larger magazine and lower rate of fire. It has the same rate of fire as the RPK featured the China Rising expansion, with a higher magazine capacity but lower damage, as well as a slightly different recoil behavior.
