About
Homefront is a first-person shooter video game developed by Kaos Studios and published by THQ. It was released for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Microsoft Windows on March 15, 2011.
Homefront is set in a near future America in 2027 when a now-nuclear armed Korean People's Army invades the USA, defeating the United States military early on, toppling it from the superpower status it once held. The game takes place after the initial defeat of the United States, and is from the perspective of Robert Jacobs, a pilot in the American Resistance. The game is written by John Milius who co-wrote Apocalypse Now and wrote Red Dawn. Much of the gameplay is set in Montrose, Colorado.

The PWS Diablo SMG is a very compact assault rifle (classed in game as a submachine gun) featured in Homefront. It is used by the American Resistance, United States Armed Forces, Survivalists, and Korean People's Army. It fires 5.56x45mm NATO at a rate of 750-900 rounds per minute. It has a similar design to the M4, but is lighter and shorter. Its vertical foregrip makes it the perfect tool for close-quarters combat
