“The German Rheinmetall AG company created the ultimate minigun. The Vindicator throws over 90,000 caseless shells per minute down its six carbon-polymer barrels. As the pinnacle of Teutonic engineering skill, it is the ultimate hand-held weapon.”— In-game description, Fallout Tactics
The Vindicator minigun is a big gun in Fallout Tactics.
Characteristics
In Fallout Tactics, a new type of Vindicator minigun appeared and is chambered for much more common 7.62mm bullets. While it doesn't do as much damage as, say, the M249 SAW, it can shoot a lot of bullets really hard at people. Very useful in CTB, when more bullets means more dead people. In STB and ITB, you might be better off with a L30 Gatling laser. Though the description states that it fires caseless ammo, the minigun fires 7.62 which has a case. this is probably a mistake in copying the FO2 discription when it used 4.7mm caseless.
