So what's happened to the UGL? I thought the RGGS was a misnamed UGL.

Darn, MOBHACK!

The Under-barrel Grenade Launcher.


It's a 40mm grenade launcher similar to the M203, entering service in 2003/4, to replace the 51mm Mortar. It can fire HE and Smoke.
The UGL can be considered represented by the RGGS. In game terms, some sort of rifle grenade dual-purpose, it does not really matter if the thing is a bullet-trap RG or a 40mm single-shot GL. Saves probably a dozen duplicated rifle sections (and hence OOB slots) which would be functionally identical.
