How do you unlock the Akita?

The Akita is a full-auto shotgun in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, available as part of the base launch roster. It is characterized by excellent mobility and handling that is balanced out by high recoil and a short effective range. A Season One update later added the Akita ScorchLink Akimbo attachment, allowing the weapon to be dual-wielded.
