The MA2B Individual Combat Weapon System (MA2B ICWS) is an older model of carbine built for the  and. A rare and obscure weapon even within the, the MA2B is a specialised subclassification of the larger MA2 line of assault rifles. It is designed to provide superior combat capabilities to personnel operating under covert conditions, without the bulk exhibited by other rifles at the time.
