The PKT (ПК Танковый, PK Tank), simply named tank machine gun in-game is a unique variant of the RP-74 light machine gun featured only in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky.

Overview Edit

This weapon is a coaxial machinegun mounted on a derelict T-64 tank near the Space Anomaly in the Red Forest and a quest item. Weighing in at 7.5kg on it's own, it can handle up to 2000 rounds at a time - ten times as much as a regular RP-74, which brings the weapon weight to 33.5 kg.

Due to the weapon's weight and its voracious need for ammunition, a player will likely not only need an Exoskeleton to get the most out of it, but they will also need to use it, and nothing else. It also has the same stats of a normal RP-74 except for magazine capacity and cannot be upgraded, this is more or less for players who wants to go mad with spraying their enemies in a hail of lead without wanting to reload frequently, otherwise it is better to turn it in.

Acquisition Edit

This weapon can be obtained after getting the job to get this weapon from a Duty or Loner squad leader in the Red Forest.
