-The [[Heckler & Koch HK416]] is also used by US Navy personnel but in reality the only units in the US Military to use the HK416 are the Naval Special Warfare Development Group, 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta, and the United States Marine Corps (M27 IAR variant). It would be more accurate for Navy personnel to be armed with the [[M4A1]], [[M16 rifle series#Mk 18 Mod 0|Mk 18 Mod 1]], [[M16A2]] or the [[M14]].
