Quite good as an alternative to the Javelin in later missions. It's good in a dogfight or when you are too close to your target to use the Slammer.
While accuracy may be questioned, there is no doubt that this is a very decent self-defense weapon, and if all shots line up, the target is prone to a serious beating, if not critically damaged.
