The FX-05 rifle, also known as the "fire serpent," was created by the Mexican National Army to standardize their military arms and combat the issue of inconsistent weaponry due to their dependency on imports and licenses from other countries. One of the reasons for its development was to fight against drug cartels in urban areas, as the smaller 5.56mm NATO cartridge allowed for higher volume of fire and a handier weapon in tight quarters. Despite facing legal disputes due to its similarity to the German G36, the FX-05 became a symbol of national pride and is used by the military during their anti-drug campaign, as it reduces dependence on foreign suppliers and can create jobs and economic stimulation. With tight weapon controls and tracking unauthorized use, the FX-05 provides better security and control over use, and its modularity allows it to accept modern accessories like optics, night vision sights, lights, and aiming modules used by Mexico's allies.
