Wyrmshadow's parts are used.

This is meant to be a ww2 flavor counter part to Firaxis' MG Btln units. Since Soviet uniforms in WW2 and Cold War eras are so similar, this could be a cold war unit for any civ that uses soviet weapons as well. But since this one is crewed, North Vietnamese and Vietcongs aren't covered :(.

Civilopedia entry:

"The 12.7mm DShk is a Soviet heavy machine gun. Requiring a heavy machine gun similar to the M2 Browning, development of the DShK began in the Soviet Union in 1929 and the first design was finalised by Vasily Degtyaryov in 1931. The weapon may be vehicle mounted or used on a tripod or wheeled carriage as a heavy infantry machine gun. It is used by infantry on tripod mounts or deployed with a two-wheeled mounting and a single-sheet armor-plate shield. Similar to the PM M1910 Maxim, when deployed against infantry, the DShK was used with a two-wheeled trolley, with which the machine gun weighed a total of 346 pounds (157 kg)."
