Beginning Analysis: What happens when the elite of U.S. law enforcement take on the professional military of north Vietnam? Read on to see who...is...deadliest!?

S.W.A.T.
Short Range: Kel-Tec KSG Shotgun
Medium Range: LWRC-PSD Assault Rifle
Long Range: Remington 700 Sniper Rifle
Special: Tazer Shockwave

NVA
Short Range: SPAS-12 Shotgun
Medium Range: AK-47 Assault RIfle
Long Range: Dragunov Sniper Rifle
Special: RGD-5 Grenade

Who Got the Edge
Kel-Tec KSG vs SPAS-12: Both shotguns get the edge. The SPAS-12 has a longer barrel (546mm compared to the KSG's barrel length of 470mm), and it can switch from pump action to gas-operated, but the KSG is more compact, and it can hold 7 shells in the chamber, along with a 7-shell clip loaded in the back. When one ammo source gets depleated, the user pushes a button to get access to the other, essentially giving the KSG a 14-shell capacity.
LWRC-PSD vs AK-47: Both assault rifles get the edge. The PSD has a higher rate of fire (850 round a minute compared to 600 rounds a minute from the AK-47), but the AK-47 has a longer barrel (415mm compared to the PSD's barrel length of 200mm), and can accept a wider variety of clips (The AK-47 can accept 30 & 40 rounds clips, as well as 75 drums from the RPK, while the PSD can only accept 30 round clips).
Remington 700 vs Dragunov: Both sniper rifles get the edge. The Dragunov has a higher ammo count (10-round clip compared to the Remington's internal 4-round magazine), faster firing rate (semi-auto vs bolt-action) and a longer firing range (1300m compared to the Remington's firing rate of 800m). The Remington, on the other hand, has a barrel length of 660mm, 40mm more than the Dragunov.
Tazer Shockwave vs RGD-5 Grenade: The RGD-5 grenade gets the edge. With the Tazer Shockwave, you're only getting a single directional effect. On top of that, the weapon is design to disable, not kill. With a RGD-5, it goes out in all directions, and it can kill.

Setup
Washington D.C., August 15, 2011. A day that would go down in Infamy as one of S.W.A.T.'s greatest battles, yet one of it's greatest failures at the same time.
Around 10:15 in the morning, a call was made to the local police. They weren't able to get the entire message, save for some gunshots in the background, and someone shouting "The exhibit has come to live!". The had the police spooked, and not wanting to take any chances, they sent out a S.W.A.T. team to investigate.
When the S.W.A.T. team arrived, there were already regular police parked outside the Air and Space Museum building. Cops were standing by with M16s and Glock 19s, ready to fire. The lead S.W.A.T. officer, Officer Howard, immediately went over and commandered the megaphone that one of the police officers were holding in their hands, and started speaking.
"Hostile forces, come out with your hands up! We promise that we won't fire upon you."
At first, nothing. About 2 minutes later, a oriental man came walking out. He was holding something in his left hand, but nobody could make out what it was. Finally, one of the policeman came right over, and quickly asked Officer Howard a question.
"Hey, Officer Howard, does he look a little familiar?"
"What do you mean?" Officer Howard asked.
The policeman handed Officer Howard a pair of binoculars. "Take a look." he said.
Officer Howard looked through the binoculars, and right at the hostile target. He couldn't believe what he saw, so he lowered the binoculars, and pinched his eyes, then he raised the binoculars, and looked through again. The guy was dressed up as if he was in the North Vietnamese Army. Officer Howard lowered his binoculars, and breathed a sigh of stress. I know I didn't drink this morning, he thought to himself.
"See what I mean?" the policeman asked.
Officer Howard knodded. "Is there anybody else besides this guy?" he asked.
"Not sure." the policeman replied. "This is the only one we've seen so far. I think..."
A loud screech came out of some speakers. The man who came outside lifted up a small microphone, and began speaking.
"American people! I am a member of the North Vietnamese Army. Your acts of violence against our country have gone unpunished until now. Today, you will pay for the deaths of thousands!"
Officer Howard was confused by the statement. Regardless, he raised the megaphone, and started speaking again.
"Hostile force, I must tell you that the war has been over for decades. If you will just..."
A loud bang echoed outside the building, sending everybody for cover. Officer Howard looked around to see if anybody had been shot, and noticed that one of his own men had unfortunately been hit right between the eyes.

S.W.A.T.: 4/NVA: 5

"Masters, get over here!" Officer Howard yelled. Masters was the team's marksman. During his time with the team, he had never missed a shot. He took off the Remington 700 from his back, and put the sniper rifle on the car for better stability. He looked over the entire front of the museum, and saw nothing. A second later, he saw a quick flash in one of the upper windows. Masters took the shot, and sent a bullet flying through the window, and into the heart of the enemy sniper.

S.W.A.T.: 4/NVA: 4

The man sent outside to communicate with the police outside ducked as soon as Masters's rifle went off. He looked back up, and saw the window where the bullet went through. In a moment of anger, he fumbled through his shirt pocket, and pulled out a RGD-5 Grenade. He had a finger in the loop and pulled it, arming the explosive. He was about to throw it, when one of the S.W.A.T. members from behind the barricade raised his PSD Assault Rifle, and unleashed a torrent of bullets. The hot lead went right into the assailants's chest, sending blood all over. In the process, he dropped his RGD-5, and within 3 seconds, it went off, destroying his body even further.

S.W.A.T.: 4/NVA: 3

Everybody looked out from cover, and saw the NVA member's corpse torn up. The chest was filled with shrapnel, and the face was burnt by the explosion. Officer Howard, along with Masters and the other two S.W.A.T. members picked up their guns, and jumped over the police car barricade to head inside the museum. They stacked up at the doors, with two members standing on either side. After scanning the area behind the doors, it was safe for them to go inside.
The museum was oddly quiety. It appeared on the outside of the building that there were more soldiers inside, but it was starting to look like it was just a small group. They were scanning the planes hanging above them in case any NVA soldiers were waiting to ambush them, but luckily, it would have take a bit of work to get in one of them.
They were still looking around, when they heard some shaking behind the front desk. Officer Howard listed up his fist, and the team halted. He sent two S.W.A.T. members to slowly approach the left side of the disk, and himself to the right. Masters stayed behind to keep his eye out for anything suspicious. After they got in position, they quickly got behind the desk, and held up their guns. "You, get up!" Officer Howard yelled. They were all suspecting a NVA soldier was hiding, but it was just a civilian who didn't get out in time. After the initial shock, Officer Howard helped the civilian up to his feet, apologized for his outburt, and asked him some questions.
"You mind telling me your name?"
"I'm the museum curator." the civilian said. "My name's Dr. Morris"
"Can you tell me what's go on?" asked Officer Morris.
"I'm not exactly sure you'll believe me."
"Try me." replied Officer Howard.
The doctor cleared his throat. "Where to begin? Well, early this morning, the Air & Space Museum received a Vietnam exhibit. We set it up, and everything looked great. About an hour or two ago, the exhibit...."
"The exhibit what?" Officer Howard asked impatiently.
"It came to life." Dr. Morris replied plainly.
"You're joking, right?" Masters asked sarcastically.
"No, I'm not." the doctor said grimly. "The exhibit was on aircraft during the Vietnam War. A couple of the aircraft had dummies to fit in the cockpit. We set them up, and we left to go about our day. Somehow, someway, the dummies in the Vietnamese aircraft became animate, and started killing everybody in the building. I managed to hide here after the initial attack, and managed to stay alive since then."
"Okay." said Officer Howard. "The way we came in is clear. Head out through those doors, and the police will get you some protection."
"You don't have to tell me twice." replied Doctor Morris, who promptly ran right out the doors. Officer Howard regrouped the rest of the squad.
"Alright." he said. "We managed to kill at least two guys. Judging by what the doctor said, there's at least 3 other soldiers in here. Let's take them out as quickly as we can."
As he was talking to the squad, a NVA soldier was creeping up on them from a staircase to their right. He raised his AK-47, and aimed it right at one of the S.W.A.T. members who were closest to the stairs. He fired off a few round, catching the entire squad off guard. Officer Howard, Masters, and one of the other S.W.A.T. jumped behind the front desk to avoid getting shot. The other member of the squad wasn't so lucky, and a couple bullets penetrated his helmet, and got lodged in his brain. His body slumped against the bloodied desk, a symbol of his last stand.

S.W.A.T.: 3/NVA: 3

The NVA soldier, seeing his target get killed, immediately retreated back up the stairs to avoide getting shot at. "Damnit!" growled Officer Howard. "Alright, here's our plan. Masters, you take Billy and comb the west side of the museum. I'll take the east side."
"Howard, you going to be alright?" Masters asked.
"I'll be fine." replied Officer Howard. "Since we're splitting up, we'll be able to cover more ground. Now get going!"
Masters knodded. He and Billy began briskly moving to the west side of the museum to look for any more NVA soldiers. After quickly praying for his safety, Officer Howard picked up his PSD, and began running in the direction of the eastern part of the museum. Hopefully, they'll find the other NVA soldiers hiding in the museum, including the one that ambushed them.
3 minutes later, Masters & Billy arrived at the entrance to the eastern portion of the museum, when they all of a sudden heard some voices from a room just to the left on the entrance. Masters stacked up on the left side, while Billy stacked up to the right.
"Hey Billy." whispered Masters.
"What?" asked Billy softly.
"Setup that Tazer Shockwave you have on your back in front of the room, and we'll give those NVA soldiers a shock of their lives."
Billy nodded in agreement. He took the Tazer Shockwave off of his back, and placed it back far enough from the door so it could affect both soldiers inside. After a few seconds, Billy went back to the right side of the entrance, holding the button to the activate the tazer. The door to the room opened up, and the two NVA soldiers that were talking to each other failed to noticed the stacked tazers in front of them. Billy pushed the button, sending dozens of electrified barbs into one of the NVA soldiers. His body seized up, and fell to the floor paralyzed. Masters rushed in, and shot the paralyzed soldier in the back with the Kel-Tec KSG shotgun he had been carrying with him. The pellets made a nice clean hole, right in the middle of the soldier's back.

S.W.A.T.: 3/NVA: 2

After setting the activation button down, Billy came right over to inspect Masters's handiwork. "Nice job" he said.
"Thanks." replied Masters. "Hey Billy, come take a look at this."
Billy walked over to the entrance to the room, and the two S.W.A.T. members saw an opened window, and no sign of the other NVA soldier. "Where do you think he went?" Billy asked Masters.
"Not sure." Masters replied. "Come on. Let's see if we can track that other soldier down."
Billy went back to the entrance of the east portion of the museum, and picked up his LWRC-PSD Assault Rifle. The two policeman hopped over the dead NVA soldier's body, then proceeded down the hallway that would lead them further into the exhibit.
After a few seconds, they both arrived at the Vietnam exhibit that Dr. Morris was talking about earlier. There was a Huey Helicopter hanging right above them, and a U.S. Fighter Jet hanging further back. They couldn't spend time gawking at the place, so they kept walking through the exhibit, keeping their eyes open for any signs of the escaped NVA soldier.
Once 5 minutes went by, they were in front of the primary portion of the exhibit. There were a bunch of dummies up on display. A couple of them were dressed up as U.S. Army Rangers, holding M16s, and looking well. To their left, a couple dummies were made to look like Vietcong guerillas. Most of them were holding MAT-49s, while three of them were gathered around an RPD machine gun. Despite that image, the empty lot where the NVA slice of the exhibit gave Billy & Masters some shivers.
"Think we should get out of here?" Billy asked nervously.
"No." Masters replied loudly. "Keep looking around."
The two S.W.A.T. member kept looking for the escaped NVA soldier, when one of them spotted a trash can turned upside down. They body stopped in their tracks, and they were unsure as to what to do next. "Belly, go check it out." said Masters.
"Why me?" asked Billy.
"Because you're the new guy." Masters replied.
"I'm not getting paid enough for this ****." said Billy, who slowly crept over to the trash can. He holstered his PSD, and gripped both sides of the trash can. He lifted it up, and all he saw were some papers...and a RGD-5 Grenade. "Run!" Billy yelled. Masters ran to the nearest toppled over table for cover. Billy began to run for the same cover, but the grenade managed to go off before he could find cover. The grenade went off, sending smoke and shard of metal all over the room. One of these shard went right through Billy's armor, and into his heart. His body started to shake, while blood began to trickle out of his mouth. He dropped his rifle, and then his body dropped to the floor.

S.W.A.T.: 2/NVA: 2

Masters peeked out from behind the table, and saw Billy's lifeless body. Masters got up to his feet, and walked over to his friend's corpse. There was still some amount of smoke floating in the air, so things were a little blurry, but the body that was Billy could plainly be seen. Masters lowered his head, and gave a prayer to his comrade. He was unaware that the escaped NVA soldier that he and his friend were looking for was creeping up behind him, raising a SPAS-12 Shotgun. A few brain-splattered seconds later, and Masters would soon see his friend Billy again.

S.W.A.T.: 1/NVA: 2

Meanwhile, Officer Howard was wandering through the western portion of the museum looking for any other NVA soldiers. He heard a few gunshots and a explosion echo from across the museum, and hoped that Masters & Billy were okay. Hopefully, they would all come out of this alive, and head to the nearest bar for a drink and call it a day.
Howard came around a corner, when he spotted a NVA soldier scrounging around what looked like a buffet table. That's definately something I'd never expect to see, Howard thought to himself. This was an opportunity to take out the enemy, which was something he never passes up.
Gripping his LWRC-PSD, Officer Howard began creeping towards a knocked down table to hide behind. He was about half way to the table, when he accidentally kicked a small pile of garbage. The NVA soldier quickly turned around, and began firing. Officer Howard was nearly hit in the leg when he started to book it to the table. A few bullets wizzed just above his head, narrowingly missing his helmet. Officer Howard set his PSD to full auto, and started firing back. Most of his bullets landed right in the buffet table, but a couple went through the NVA soldier's torso, and shredding up his intestines. The soldier dropped his AK-47, and tried to walk away, but the pain in his midsection was so immense, he dropped to the floor. A few second later, and he died.

S.W.A.T.: 1/NVA: 1

Officer Howard reloaded his rifle, and looked at corpse of his NVA foe. Now that he was out of the way, it was time to head back to the east section of the museum and check on Masters and Billy. Hopefully, they took out some NVA soldiers as well.
Officer Howard was now back at the main lobby of the Air & Space Museum. He spotted the corpse of his comrade who was ambushed earlier, and nodded his head in disappointment. Despite that, he gave him a quick prayer, and went about his business. He just passed the body, when a bullet landed in the front desk. Officer Howard spun around to see where the bullet landed, then started look for whoever tried to take him out. Another bullet shot his PSD rifle out of his hands. He bent right down to pick it up, and a third shot went through the crowd of Officer Howard's helmet, and into his brain.
A NVA soldier was crouching up top on one of the hanging airplanes, looking through the scope of a Dragunov, and breathing heavily after taking the killing shot. They've paid for their crimes now, he said out loud.

S.W.A.T.: 0/NVA: 1

NVA: 505
SPAS-12 Shotgun: 120
AK-47 Assault Rifle: 300
Dragunov Sniper Rifle: 60
RGD-5 Grenade: 25

S.W.A.T.: 495
Kel-Tec KSG Shotgun: 200
LWRC-PSD Assault Rifle: 200
Remington 700 Sniper Rifle: 95
Tazer Shockwave: 0

Ending Assessment: This was the closest fight I've ever done, but I gave the NVA the win due to their military training, and their willingness to go the extra mile.
Strongest Weapon: With 300 kills, the NVA's AK-47 gets the edge.
Weakest Weapon: Due to it's uni-directional & non-lethal usage, the Tazer Shockwave is the weakest weapon of this fight.
