Five-seveN

The Five-seveN was developed in the 90s as part of a NATO program to explore options of replacement of the 9x19mm Parabellum cartridge and all associated pistols and submachine guns with compact, accurate, lighter weight, higher capacity weaponry with body armor-penetrating capabilities. This program lead to the development of the FN 5.7x28mm cartidge, the P90 submachine gun, and the Five-seveN semiautomatic pistol by FN Herstal. In the early 2000s, the 5.7x28mm cartridge competed against the 4.6x30mm cartridge developed by H&K for the MP7. Although NATO testing determined the 5.7mm to be superior, Germany protested the NATO-wide standardization of the round, leading the to program's postponement. In the interim, 5.7mm weapons, the Five-seveN pistol in particular, was picked up by a number of NATO and non-aligned nations. The Five-seveN became a popular choice for many special forces and internal affairs groups around the world who required a lightweight, high capacity pistol with light armor-penetrating capabilities.
After the Human-Vannai War, the pistol continued to see manufacture and use. It is still commercially available in North America under the FNA label through the FUD, while in Europe the pistol is manufactured by DWF and restricted to government sale only, with private possession of the weapon considered a crime under Federal anti-terrorism laws. The Special Operations Executive and Federal Intelligence are prominent users of the pistol as their standard issue sidearm. The SOE in particular has their own variant of the weapon, appropriately catalogued by DWF as Five-seveN SOE. This version of the pistol is based off the modern Five-seveN Mk2, which features an ambidextrous safety lever and magazine release, cocking serrations along the improved single-piece slide, and a white straight-edge adjustable rear sight. In addition, the Five-seveN SOE  has an extended, threaded barrel for mounting silencers, and an extended, rounded trigger guard for firing with gloves. The variant of the pistol used by Federal Intelligence retains the square trigger guard of the standard Mk2 and uses tritium insert sights.
Compared to 9mm pistols, the Five-seveN is noticeably louder and produces considerable muzzle flash, but has approximately 30% less recoil. This improved controllability makes it appealing to Federal Intelligence agents, who are not expected to have significant practice with their weapons. Intel employs SS192 hollow-point ammunition or commercial-grade SS198LF ammunition, while the SOE utilizes SS190 armor piercing rounds and SB193 subsonic rounds.
