Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
The FAD's in-game stats say it has medium-high accuracy with medium-low damage along with a high fire rate.

Singleplayer
The FAD can be seen in the hands of the Africa Militia forces during Singleplayer.

Multiplayer
The FAD is unlocked at Level 78 in Modern Warfare 3's multiplayer, being the last assault rifle unlocked. It seems to have very peculiar iron sights, being rather large and raised. The FAD has an extremely high rate of fire, at 1000 RPM, but also has the lowest damage of any assault rifle and a very slow reload. However, the magazine enters the weapon fairly early in the reload animation at 1.5 seconds, making reload cancelling very beneficial to the FAD. It must also be noted that the FAD magazine has 40 rounds compared to the standard 30.

Although the high rate of fire and the relatively large magazine come at the cost of very low damage, and very bulky iron sights, the FAD is still a good weapon for CQB and even medium combat.

Interestingly, the FAD has the highest headshot modifier of any weapon in the game at 1.7x, making it a 2 hit kill to the head at close range. Additionally, aiming down the sights with the FAD is slightly faster than with the other assault rifles at 0.25 seconds, compared to 0.3 seconds for all other assault rifles.

Survival Mode
The FAD appears in Modern Warfare 3's Survival Mode where it is unlocked at level 32, but can also be found used by enemies at around wave 20. It is a very strong weapon at close to mid range, but its high recoil leads to lose of accuracy at range. It is highly recommended for maps such as Sea Town, Resistance and Dome.
