Notes[]
Jagged Alliance 2[]
- The AUG has the best range from all the 5,56mm firearms in Jagged Alliance 2 V.1.12, greater than FN-FAL and comparable to light machineguns.
- It doesn't wear off quickly, only AKM and H&K G11 are more reliable amongst the assault rifles.
- However, the AUG is quite difficult to repair - on par with FA-MAS and AK-74.
Jagged Alliance Online[]
- The rifle in this game appeared in two variants - the Common one and the AUG A3 (Rare) variant.
- The AUG A3 variant did cost 544 Gold bars in the game.
Jagged Alliance 3[]
- The AUG in this game remains a good choice for a long-range assault rifle with improved accuracy, just using new game mechanism.
