Special air-fragmenting 5.45 mm cartridges designed to combat drones have been developed for Kalashnikov assault rifles, according to Igor Potapov, an official representative of NPP JSC.
The tests showed that the range and accuracy achieved are acceptable. At a distance of 100 meters, we achieved a dispersion cloud of almost 25 cm. This indicator speaks to the effectiveness of the product.
NPP JSC added that the cartridges will undergo a series of additional tests to confirm their characteristics. The ammunition is versatile and unified for the weapons that every soldier has.
This is very good, since similar products are made for various calibers that not everyone has, so it is quite difficult to use them. In the near future, the product will undergo further testing stages to confirm the stated characteristics," Potapov noted.
Earlier, www1.ru reported that Russia will sell engines for T-72 tanks to India for $248 million.
