The M60 machine gun is an American light machine gun that appears in Medal of Honor (2010) and Medal of Honor: Warfighter. The M60 is introduced in 1957 and served with all branches of the US Army. The M60 was partly derived from the German FG42 and MG42. During the Vietnam War the M60 had many problems including: feeding problems and jamming which led to the development of the M60E1. The M60 was replaced by the M240 but the E4 variant remained used by Navy SEALs and the E6 variant adopted by the Danish Army.
