The
M60 machine gun (also seen M-60, formally Machine
Gun, 7.62mm, M60) is a family of American machine
guns, firing the 7.62 × 51 mm NATO cartridge- it is
belt fed and uses the M13 link. In the U.S. military,
it has largely been replaced by various versions of
the M240 machine gun. However, it remains in use in
every branch, as well as some other countries (another
major user was Australia); it continues to be manufactured
into the 21st century. The
M60 can be used in both offensive and defensive configurations.
In the offense, it provides a higher rate of fire,
greater effective range, and uses a larger caliber
round than the standard-issue United States assault
rifle, the M16. In defensive use, the long range,
close defensive, and final protective fires delivered
by the M60 form an integral part of an unit's battle
plan. Utilizing
