Contents
Description
The Darne 1933 is an interwar machine gun used by the French air force, and is in most ways a predecessor of the MAC 1934. It fields the same characteristic trade of low per-bullet stopping power for high fire rate and is about equal in lethality to its successor, only really lacking the resistance to jamming and a little extra accuracy compared to its heir.

Available ammunition
The Universal belt is a straight upgrade over the Default belt, retaining all the essential shells while increasing the probability of hitting the target with either an AP or incendiary bullet. The Stealth belt is a more specialised alternative. Lacking tracers, it makes it tricky to estimate the lead, especially in Realistic Battles. However, your chances of hitting the target with an AP or incendiary bullet increase to 66% and 33%, respectively. Finally, the Tracer belt makes it considerably easier to hit the target, with the muzzle velocity of the entire belt rising to 920 m/s and each bullet equipped with tracers, making it much easier to establish the correct lead. This belt will bounce off any real armour but is excellent against soft targets, such as fighters.
