On a unit that can deploy through DeployFire=yes or IsSimpleDeployer=yes, this specifies which weapon it uses when it is deployed.

Units typically have their Primary as their undeployed weapon, and use their Secondary when deployed, like the GI, but in cases where the unit has more weapons, see the table below for acceptable values:

Index	Weapon Slot
0	Primary/ElitePrimary or Weapon1/EliteWeapon1
1	Secondary/EliteSecondary or Weapon2/EliteWeapon2
2	Weapon3/EliteWeapon3
3	Weapon4/EliteWeapon4
4	Weapon5/EliteWeapon5
5	Weapon6/EliteWeapon6
6	Weapon7/EliteWeapon7
7	Weapon8/EliteWeapon8
8	Weapon9/EliteWeapon9
9	Weapon10/EliteWeapon10
10	Weapon11/EliteWeapon11
...	Etc...

Bugs/Side-Effects/Unexpected Limitations

The Desolator and any other deployable infantry with IsDesolator=yes will only fire secondary weapons, while deployed, and do not follow the DeployFireWeapon setting. However, the deployed behaviour from simulating the Desolator using Immune G.I. Bug can be specified using this statement, but the effect is also quite strange.

Phobos Behaviour

With Phobos, DeployFireWeapon=-1 can be added to Infantry to allow them to use two types of weapons in deployment mode (based on weapon selection and usage rules).

Vehicles which have DeployFire=yes and IsGattling=yes may exhibit some confusing effects, such as suddenly changing to using Weapon1/Primary as specified for DeployFireWeapon. Even if it should not and cannot lower the stage due to RateDown=-1 or other negative numbers.

-For non release weapons, you can also specify which weapon the unit will use (not release) in deployment mode, for example, adding DeployFireWeapon=0 to [SCHP] will also use [[Primary]] in deployment mode.
