It can load 2 RPGs and fire them rapidly at a range of up to 40 meters. The RPGs travel at 32 m/s and explodes on impact or automatically past the maximum range.
It is effective against most structures and against armored vehicles.

Storage
The Cutler Foebreaker does not stack in inventories (1 per slot).
It is a Large Item, a soldier can only carry one at a time on their shoulder.
It can be stored in Base stockpiles but also in Material Pallets, Rooster - Tumblebox Trailer, or Material Transfer Stations.
Cutler Foebreaker crates can be stored in the stockpile of a Storage Depot, Seaport, or Storage Ship. Crates can be submitted to any stockpile that accept Cutler Foebreakers to transfer their content into it.
Tactics
Due to the additional equipment requirements needed for tripod weaponry, it needs to be mounted either on a tripod or a Half-Track in order to be fired. If it is on a tripod, the immobile nature requires it to be placed in relatively defensive positions, such as Trenches, or destroyed Garrisoned Houses.
For quicker deployments, it is recommended to have two players doing this, with one player carrying the tripod, and the other player carrying the Cutler Foebreaker.
Unlike its Colonial counterpart, the ISG, the Cutler Foebreaker excels at burst damage due to its twin barrels. It is recommended to reload both barrels before firing them in order to get maximum damage output. Unlike its counterpart, due to the slow moving nature of RPG projectiles, it might not be the best at quickly targeting enemy armored vehicles. Despite this minor drawback, the burst damage of a Cutler Foebreaker makes it possible to disable an AC, or at the very least, damage it enough that it is close to being disabled.
