Stalcraft Wiki: FG-42 Whip
STALCRAFT Meta note
The FG-42 Whip is a 7.62 rifle with automatic and burst fire and the largest magazine among sniper rifles. Its damage per shot is the lowest in its class, offset by a high rate of fire and low recoil. It handles more like a long-range battle rifle than a precision sniper rifle.

How these values are calculated
STALCRAFT Meta draws the damage chart for the selected upgrade level: full damage up to the falloff start, then a straight-line drop to minimum damage at the falloff end. The TTK Calculator and DPS Table use the same falloff model.
It shows damage per hit only, without ammo, armor or body-part multipliers.
Values at each upgrade level come from EXBO's per-level data.

In-game description (EXBO)
As rumor has it, a shipment of German rifles from the Second World War was intercepted and ended up in the Zone in the hands of a group of foreign mercenaries. The rifles have been modified: the weapons have been updated for the more common 7.62 rounds, and the baseline rate of fire has been reduced for improved control. A key feature is now its capability for short bursts of fire at double firing rate, causing colossal damage over a set period of time.
