The SVU-AS appears in Die Rise and Buried, and can be bought off the wall for 1000 points. It is reasonably effective as a support weapon, due to relatively low recoil and high rate of fire, even though it has relatively low damage for a sniper rifle. Using it in conjunction with Double Tap Root Beer and aiming for head shots causes it to be a one shot kill until the early 40s. It is also pinpoint accurate, unlike the other sniper rifles available. Upon obtaining the SVU-AS, as well as any other sniper rifle, the player will receive a message from Richtofen, if playing as Samuel Stuhlinger, or from Dr. Maxis, if playing as one of the other three characters.
