The M1693 medium machine gun (8x80mm RP), developed by the Luix-Satyria Scientific-Production Association LLC, inspired by artefacts recovered from the Green of Inner Cibola, is an aircraft or vehicle mounted machine-gun developed for the Security Directorate of the Honourable Company, although it will also be offered for consideration by the militaries of the Raspur Pact and certain other third parties.

In 1713 AN the M1693 was selected as the primary regimental machine-gun of the Western Natopian Demesnial Forces and in the following year was adopted as the main armament of the Rz.Kfz 1714 Razkampfwagen, necessitating the commencement of large-scale production of the type.
