The Orion VS54 is the standard weapon for Vanu Sovereignty Heavy Assault. With its high rate of fire, it performs very well at close quarters combat. Due to it having a lightweight frame, the user only gets a 25% ADS (aim down sights) movement penalty, instead of the usual 50%. Due to the high fire rate and high recoil, this gun is mediocre at medium ranges and longer.
