The CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1 9 mm submachine gun.

The CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1 is a 9 mm submachine gun used exclusively by Czech military forces in ArmA 2. It was added with the release of the Army of the Czech Republic DLC.

Overview[]

This is a premium asset that requires ownership of the Army of the Czech Republic DLC.

The Scorpion Evo 3 is a blowback-operated, selective-fire submachine gun that is chambered for the the 9×19 mm round.

On top of its regular 30-round plastic magazines, it is able to utilise those used by SP-01 PHANTOM/COMPACT and American M9 handguns as well. It can attain a fire rate of approximately ~ 857 (semi-auto) or 600 (burst/full auto) rounds per minute and has a muzzle velocity of 400 m/s. The Scorpion is usually fitted with the MRAD red dot sight, and also supports being mounted with laser sights and flashlights on its side rail. It can have suppressors attached to its muzzle.

Primarily wielded by Czech helicopter pilots, ground vehicle crewmen, and select special operations units, the Scorpion is the direct counterpart to the MP5A5 used by the U.S. Marine Corps. The main differences with the Scorpion is that it supports being loaded with 9 mm magazines used by almost every other non-Russian 9 mm SMG and handgun (with the exception of the MP5's magazines). Because it has integrated accessory rails, the Scorpion can also be fitted with optical sights that make it far more easier to aim with than the MP5A5.

However, the Scorpion shares the same downsides as the MP5A5 as well: namely the lack of range, poor stopping power, and the inventory space inefficiency of its magazines when compared to the Russian PP-19. It should also be noted that while the non-suppressed Scorpion is able to load subsonic magazines, the suppressed version of the Scorpion (the CZ SCORPION EVO 3 (SD) sub-variant) is not able to do so and cannot utilise the same magazines as its non-suppressed counterpart.

Sights[]

On the Scorpion with no optics fitted, its ironsights will allow for manual zeroing. Zeroing starts from a minimum of 50 metres up to a maximum of 200 metres (50, 100, 150, 200). By default, Scorpions with no optics attached will always utilise a zeroing of 50 metres.

Scorpions fitted with reflex sights do allow for zeroing to be manually adjusted. Zeroing begins from a minimum of 50 metres up to a maximum of 200 metres (50, 100, 150, 200). By default, they are always set to a zeroing of 50 metres.

Ammunition[]

Round name	Base damage value	Aerodynamic friction	Initial velocity (m/s)
9×19 mm	5	-0.001513	400
9×19 mm SD	5	-0.001312	320

Unsuppressed Scorpions are able to load seven types of magazines. However, the suppressed Scorpion is limited to being able to load only three of them (specifically those loaded with reduced velocity 9 mm SD ammunition). It should also be noted that the MP5's magazines are not compatible with the Scorpion.

Regardless of type, all magazines occupy one inventory slot:

EVO III mag.[]

Standard 30-round plastic magazine. Does not contain any visible tracers.

EVO III SD mag.[]

Intended specifically for use with the suppressed Scorpion. Rounds fired from this magazine specifically have a lower muzzle velocity of 320 m/s.

Phantom mag.[]

18-round pistol magazine intended for use with the SP-01 variant of the CZ 75 pistol. Remains identical in all other aspects.

Phantom SD mag.[]

Pistol magazine intended for use with suppressed SP-01 PHANTOM pistols. It is loaded with specialised subsonic ammunition.

Rounds fired from this magazine have a lower muzzle velocity of 320 m/s. It is otherwise identical to regular PHANTOM magazines.

This magazine can be loaded by the suppressed Scorpion.

Compact mag.[]

10-round pistol magazine used by the CZ 75 D COMPACT. Aside from its capacity, it has identical statistics to regular PHANTOM magazines.
