The patent materials indicate that the machine gun has sufficient firepower to combat various types of UAVs. And the developed mount solves the main problem — the limited aiming of the PKSM barrel in two planes.

The design of the mount is simple and reliable: it allows the machine gun barrel to be rotated in the horizontal plane by 360°, and vertically from +75° to -50°.
