Overview
The XM25 CDTE (Counter Defilade Target Engagement) is a semi auto grenade launcher with a 4 round magazine with 1 extra mag in reserve. Best used as a support weapon to soften up the ememies rather than going in for a kill due to it's unusually low damage and fast fire rate.

The projectile flies in an arc ( ie: the M32, MZP-1 , etc) giving this weapon a tactical advantage reaching places other explosives can't. The weapons integrated scope also can be helpful for mid range targets hiding in corners or behind objects.

One can compare this to a mini version of the M32 making this weapon an effective annoyance to anyone on the receiving end of this weapon. CQB situations are manageable due to its low splash damage to the player than the M32 which are widely known to frequently accidentally kill it's specialist user.
