Rostec is developing a new large-caliber sniper rifle that can adapt to any shooter

The Russian military will receive a new large-caliber sniper rifle, developed weapons leads the holding company "High Precision Complexes". The rifle can be adapted to any shooter and any equipment.


Rostec announced the development of a new large-caliber rifle chambered for the domestic cartridge 12,7x108 mm last fall. To date, the requirements for a new weapon have been determined, the developers are looking for technical solutions that will help achieve the specified parameters. The rifle is created using new design solutions and modern materials.

According to Bekhan Ozdoev, industrial director of the armaments complex of the state corporation Rostec, the new rifle can be adapted to any shooter due to the large number of adjustments.

The rifle will have high ergonomic characteristics due to the presence of a large number of adjustments to the elements of the weapon, which will allow it to be adapted to any shooter and his combat equipment. The design of the rifle will allow you to install a wide range of aiming aids

- leads TASS his words.

Currently, snipers in the NVO zone have received a large number of new large-caliber rifles manufactured by Lobaev Arms, in particular: long-range multi-caliber DXL-5 Havoc (Devastator) NATO caliber 12,7X99 mm and chambered for the Russian cartridge 12,7X108 mm, SVLK-14S "Dusk "chambered for 408 Cheytac (10,36x77 mm), TSVL-8 "Stalingrad" chambered for caliber .338 LM / .300 WM, etc.

The main sniper rifle in the Russian Armed Forces is still the SVD, but they have already begun to replace it with the new Chukavin sniper rifle (SVCh), which has shown high efficiency in the SVO zone.

    The war is in the yard, and Rostec is still measured by pisyuns. Everything is designed for you! Do not interfere, and you will not be cursed among the troops.

      They don't care about curses in the troops. Sniper rifles, and even large-caliber ones, are a piece and expensive product. And here is clearly an order and a green light for development. Then, on the sly, it will be possible to sell to Asia or South America - there was already news about "our" rifle under .308 caliber)))

      An amazing thing. The war has been going on for 11 months, and Rostec is still mired in plans...
      If:
      The main sniper rifle in the Russian Armed Forces is still the SVD, but they have already begun to replace it with the new Chukavin sniper rifle (SVCh), which has shown high efficiency in the SVO zone.

      Why is it (microwave) not present where it is in demand?
      How much more in the plans of officials should this war go on?
      The West will wage war to the last Ukrainian, and Russia to the last whom?
      In my opinion, unconditional surrender is achieved in other ways and means, among which the new sniper rifle does not play the first violin ...

    SVD is the rifle of the "best shooter" of the squad, which we call a sniper due to the lack of an appropriate military term in our army, unlike the American one, where they are called Marksmen. The article deals with weapons of a much higher rank.

          PVSK - what is it in the search did not find
          ABSK, KVSK - apparently meant
          ASVK / KSVK (Army / Kovrovskaya Sniper Rifle Large-caliber) - Russian large-caliber sniper rifle. Officially adopted by the RF Armed Forces in June 2013.

          ASVK "Kord" 6V7 12.7 mm

            People stop taking data from Wikipedia. You tell the ninety-ninth militants in 2000 who were shot with such a rifle, but it was the Pokrovskaya rifle and not the Kirov Kirov army rifle - This is the same large-caliber

    It's good that we still don't have such conversations about tanks and infantry fighting vehicles: "look at the plastic, here is leather, but here the back is adjustable."

    That's when it DEVELOPS, TESTS AND BEGINS MASS SUPPLY TO THE TROOPS, then you can write an article. And you can develop endlessly, and endlessly eat up the budget. Our society cannot unlearn once and for all to share the skin of an unkilled bear. And in the rest of the world they have long understood that money is not what you will once have, but what you have in your hands, and weapons are what is on the battlefield, and what is being developed - THIS IS NOT AND UNKNOWN WHEN IT WILL BE!

      The point is that society it's not something that has long been understood, but simply always knew it. As now he knows that this vintar from Rostec is no longer needed by anyone except sawmills. And you need, for example, a controlled detonation for 57mm. and "Derivation" with this shell massively and right now, and not "someday it's scary to think when." But this is not a lifting task for the brain, it is easier to play Tetris from plastic body kits.

    What, nothing else to do? There is already a rifle that has been tested in the army and has proven itself well
    in the NVO zone received a large number of new large-caliber rifles manufactured by Lobaev Arms

    Take care of what is not in the army or is not enough. For example, additional development of night vision devices and improvement of their characteristics...

    If Lobaev does better, then let him supply this type of small arms, what's the problem

      The problem is that Lobaev does not make rifles for the army. Almost piece and very expensive production. And you need cheap and a lot.

        Lyubaev will do anything, let the Moscow Region buy 10-20 thousand from him. There are no such orders

          You know, the economy is hard to fool. If you try to make Rolls-Royce massive and cheap for delivering large orders, then you will get the same Largus.

            You say that you might think that Lobaev alone makes good rifles in the world

    The main thing is that it doesn’t work out in the “as always” mode, estimators and technologists will come and find some of the parts expensive and not essential, after lengthy disputes, the consensus found will be much cheaper, but less functional.
    Then, after the approval of the documentation, the production workers will go through the product, eliminate the excess, and the output will be something in the same caliber but completely different from the prototype.

      and the output will be something in the same caliber but absolutely not like the prototype.
      Everything is much worse. If in theory it’s still somehow possible to imagine a modular version according to the principle of the trunk, and everything else that anyone needs. But it will definitely not be mass production. But they want even cooler, hang everything at once, and adjust it all to a specific fighter. So you strongly imagine an adjustable stock for such a caliber? I'm not talking about the DTK, which can be "wind up" for everyone as everyone wants. Another project and drank with zero output in the end. This is already obvious even now. It is strange that they have not yet thought of making the entire crew of the same size, on ribbons. And then everyone will tie up for himself according to his size. Helmet with ribbons, armor plate with ribbons. Shoes ... Well, apparently some kind of bast shoes, the same on ribbons. But for everyone everything is the same. Well, this is how "convenient", especially for quartermasters.

      Then just our rednecks from the Moscow Region will say that it's expensive and that's it. Sample in a single copy

    Weapons are always designed for ammunition. And we don’t have 12,7x108 ammunition for a sniper rifle. For machine guns there is, but for a high-precision rifle, no. Instead of developing “the same but with mother-of-pearl buttons”, it is possible and necessary to invest in the technology for the production of bullets and cartridge cases. Everything else is there. But here you really have to work. And our people in power are not honored to work. Sawing the budget is our ffso.
