Part 28

Unlock the UMP9 for $30,200 or the M5 Navy with 1,250 kills (criminals) in Battlefield Hardline. Learn their stats and trivia.

UMP9

• Ammo: 9x19mm
• Capacity: 30+1
• Fire-rate: 650 RPM
• Reload: 2.25 secs
• Unlocks: $30,200 [both factions]

The UMP9 was added in the Getaway (DLC (downloadable content — extra missions or items released after launch)), but the expansion is not required to access it. It uses the 9mm cartridge and has a max damage of 34, resulting in a three-hit kill in close quarters combat (CQB). It shares the same slow muzzle velocity and reload times as the UMP45. The UMP9 offers a slightly less minimum damage but has a higher rate of fire, five more rounds per magazine, less recoil, and exceptional accuracy in stationary aimed fire. It is a good choice for a "slow and heavy" SMG due to its combination of fire-rate, recoil, aimed spread, and SIPS (suppressed fire). It is not faction-locked. The UMP9 comes without any attachments. In the 1 March 2016 update, the minimum damage for several SMGs, including the UMP9, was reduced from 18 to 16, changing the kill count at longer ranges from six hits to seven.

Trivia: The UMP9 is distinguished by its curved magazine, unlike the straight magazines of the UMP45 and UMP40. Picatinny rails can be fitted for a sight and foregrip, and it has a special muzzle for sound suppressor attachment. The UMP9 is depicted incorrectly with a straight magazine in its icon and 2D image on the game's loadout menu and Battlelog.

M5 Navy

• Ammo: 9x19mm
• Capacity: 30+1
• Fire-rate: 800 RPM
• Reload: 2.30 secs
• Unlocks: $60,000 [cops] / get 1,250 kills with it and buy licence [criminals]
• Getaway (DLC) required

The M5 Navy was added with the Getaway (DLC), which focused on the Mechanic class. It has the same 25/12 max/min damage as the FMG9 and P90 but is outgunned by other fast SMGs with better fire-rates or higher damage. Its other stats are not remarkable, and it has worse accuracy than several other SMGs. The M5 Navy lacks the 180-round magazine of the MP5 from Deadly Premonition, having a standard 30-round capacity, although the game model shows a shorter magazine. The 2D image on the loadout menu and Battlelog shows the magazine at a bizarre angle. The M5 Navy comes without any attachments.

Trivia: The M5 Navy is based on the HK MP5 SMG, developed in the mid-1960s. The MP5-N (Navy) was a version designed for the US Navy in 1986 with a threaded barrel for a suppressor and a retractable stock. Original models featured a three-round burst fire-mode.
