Erad

"Full-auto energy firearm. A wide dispersion muzzle dampens recoil, providing highest accuracy in class."

- In-game description

The Erad (capitalized as the ERAD in pre-release) is a Mashimo submachine gun featured in Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare.

Campaign
Unlike the multiplayer variant, the Erad is equipped with a Master Key underbarrel shotgun by default, which often kills both SDF troopers and C6 units in two shots or less. When combined with the Retractable Shield, the two can be a devastating combo on even higher difficulties.

When all side missions are completed, the Erad unlocks the Splitter upgrade, which converts the primary firing pattern into a slow-firing, vertical spread shot. It also converts the shotgun mode to have the weapon fire in a horizontal pattern.
