What is the standard rifle of the Belgian army?

I would guess the FNC, but I'm not sure. Please only answer if you know for sure.

The service rifle currently in use by the Belgian Army is the FNC. It is a gas operated assault rifle, chambered for the 5.56mmX54mm NATO round, firing a cyclic rate of 650-750 rounds per minute. It comes standard with a folding stock, and is not quite as accurate as the M-16A2 service rifle in use with the US Military.
