Flechette Ammunition
Talk6this wiki

Flechette Ammunition is a special type of ammunition that uses small pointed steel projectiles that act like small darts. Flechettes consist of a pointed steel head, a long and vaned tail for stable flight. Flechettes can be used in a single round as a discarding sabot, or they can be grouped together in artillery weapons or shotgun rounds for anti-personnel use. The use of flechettes is limited due to the lack of effective use as a replacement ammunition due to the need for a sabot for a shot.
Battlefield 2142
Edit
In Battlefield 2142, the Clark 15B shotgun and Park 52 Sniper Rifle use flechette ammunition. Ammunition for BF2142 weapons is not changeable.

Flechette ammunition was also a special pre-order bonus that is a part of the "Physical Warfare Pack". It is available for use in the exclusive unlock DAO-12 shotgun that comes as a bonus in the pack as well (a Day 1 unlock, not an exclusive unlike the Type 88 LMG or Flash Suppressor). This ammunition is unlockable and can be used in other shotguns, but those who were fortunate enough to have this bonus will have had it from the start online. As of March 2012, the Physical Warfare Pack is unlocked free to all players.
