Covert SMG (Mercenaries 2)

The Covert SMG is a submachine gun featured in Mercenaries 2: World in Flames.

Overview
The Covert SMG is an MP5SD, an MP5 with an integrated silencer. On top of being suppressed which does not really seem to affect gameplay much since AI notices 'silenced' gunfire, it is more accurate, controllable and powerful than the machine pistols but has a smaller magazine of 30 and a slower rate of fire. In World in Flames the Covert SMG is never used by any faction.

Due to it being a 'sub-sonic' weapon it has poor stopping power, but any weapon that can hit the head usually kills. Though fairly inaccurate, it is better than the Assault Rifle or SMG.

In World in Flames it can be purchased from the Pirates in the Covert Weapons drop for $10k with the Covert Pistol included. The crate has Universal Petroleum markings. It is unlocked at the shop after destroying several targets for the Pirates. It is not silenced at all, despite being named so and having an actual silencer on it.

A Covert Supply Drop can be found near the North-Western barrack on Isla de la Fortelaza (until the player does the 'Tropical Island Getaway' contract).

Real Life
The H&K MP5 is a submachine gun that is famed for its use among police forces as well as military special forces. Using a 9x19mm Parabellum round, it lacks stopping power yet makes up for it in its compact nature. This MP5 variant is the MP5SD.

Trivia

 * The Covert SMG is held with a pistol grip, like the Russian sniper rifle.
