The BD-48 Daittyo Heavy Rifle is Pranali's machine gun in Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2, the stability automatic the Duelist carries for long bursts. The max-rank card lists Combat Rating 100, a 200-round magazine, and a fire rate of 400. A box under the receiver is marked DRIVE-CM31, and the same BD prefix shows up on the rest of Pranali's locker, from the Begho assault rifle to the Djinn railgun.
Stats
The max-rank card calls the Daittyo a machine gun with automatic fire, rated at five stars and Combat Rating 100. Accuracy is 68 and stability is 86, so a long burst holds together better than it snaps onto the first shot. Each hit does 11 damage and 12 stopping power, which comes out to 97 damage per second and 106 stopping power per second at a fire rate of 400. Bullet penetration is 3.0, weak-point stopping power is already 17.5 percent, and the critical hit is a 5 percent chance at a 50 percent multiplier.
The magazine holds 200 rounds, with 400 rounds carried in total, and a reload takes 4.00 seconds. Weak-point damage, handling, and the handling bonus all read 0 on that card. Firing cuts movement speed by 50 percent, and aiming down the sight cuts it by 30 percent, so the marine is slower while the burst is going. Damage stays high at close range and then falls off toward 100 meters, which is why the gun is used down a corridor rather than as a marksman rifle.

Recommended Attachments
The Fireteam Elite 2 loadouts keep this rifle on sustained fire, and the attachment row follows that. Combat Actuator is the internal magazine. After a kill it adds 5 percent damage and 0.5 bullet penetration, stacking up to five times for nine seconds, at the cost of a 10 percent slower reload. Compressed Optics adds 7.5 percent critical chance, 7.5 percent critical multiplier, and 5 percent handling. The C32D6 Nagpur Shroud raises stopping power by 40 percent on every third hit for seven seconds, and it adds 5 percent recoil while it is fitted.
The rifle's own trait adds 17.5 percent weak-point stopping power, which matches the weak-point figure on the max-rank card. The other choice is the Type 111 Directed Particle Emitter trait, which adds 1 percent damage on each hit, up to 20 percent, and clears if the burst stops for a second. Keep the Daittyo trait when weak-point stopping power is the point of the gun. Move the Type 111 trait on when the rifle is doing most of the firing. Grey-Market Rounds makes each shot deal somewhere between half and two and a half times normal damage, so a 200-round magazine gets a lot of those rolls. Handmade Rounds is the cheaper version of the same idea.

Weapon Lore
Pranali is one of the new arms makers in the Fireteam Elite 2 locker, filed next to Armat pulse rifles and Weyland-Yutani support guns. Its stock uses a BD prefix. The BD-16 Begho is the variable-rate assault rifle, the BD-14 Gecho is the third full-size automatic, and the BD-03 Djinn is the company's first railgun, sold with a charged shot. Closer in, the BD-55 Jokk is a burst shotgun and the BD-21 Khokosh is the submachine gun that can push past its base fire rate. The Daittyo is the heavy end of that line: a box-fed machine gun built to stay on target, not a variable-rate carbine.
Class videos spelled the rifle DB-48. The locker card, and the max-rank stats screen, both read BD-48. The model carries a tan stock and handguard, a black receiver, and the DRIVE-CM31 box ahead of the trigger, with triangular cuts along the top cover. Cold Iron Studios showed it as the Duelist stability rifle for corridors and packs, with the HNT-1 E1 Alamein as the single-shot swap when one heavier target matters more than the group. Fireteam Chimaera carried it from the UAS Endeavor hangar on the 2207 mission to Storr's Boon, the mining colony on LV-558.
Conclusion
The BD-48 Daittyo Heavy Rifle is Pranali's machine gun in Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2, a BD-line automatic with Combat Rating 100, a 200-round magazine, and stability of 86 at max rank. Duelist uses it for sustained fire, with Combat Actuator, Compressed Optics, the Nagpur Shroud, and Grey-Market Rounds on the recommended row.
