The end of the assault rifle service in the German armed forces HK G36

123


Defense Minister Ursula von der Leyen officially announced on 8 September 2015 that the assault rifle service from Heckler & Koch is drawing to a close. So the million dollar question arose. Which model will replace the decommissioned G36 in 2019?

Stefan Perey


End of service: The era in which the Heckler & Koch G36 5.56x45mm NATO assault rifle was in service with the German armed forces seems to have finally achieved its goal.


The G36 rifle in 5.56x45mm NATO from the world-renowned manufacturer Heckler & Koch from Oberndorf am Neckar in the Swabian region of Germany was adopted in 1997 based on official specifications. It was designed for a 20-year lifespan, which at least the early rifles of the very first batches in 2017 survived.

Now, unfortunately, the decision of the Minister of Defense means that in the future there will not even be a modified or improved version of the HK G36 in service with the armed forces of Germany.

Long-term partners: German Armed Forces and Heckler & Koch

Heckler & Koch has been a respected supplier to the German military since the birth of the Federal Republic of Germany. Let's not forget that the Heckler & Koch G3 7.62x51mm NATO rifles are automatic weapon with a semi-free bolt, were adopted by the Bundeswehr back in the year 1959.

The collapse of the Warsaw Pact in the early 1990s hit Germany's arms industry hard. The futuristic Heckler & Koch G11 rifle, chambered for 4.73x33mm caseless cartridges, was originally intended to replace the 3x7.62mm NATO G51, but due to reduced defense costs and problems with the weapon itself, it ended up still languishing in military collections. artifacts for study by interested historians.

HK G36 model in section

In 1992, Germany decided to introduce a new assault rifle, intended for firing 5.56X45mm caliber cartridges, which were adopted as a NATO standard from the 1986 year.

The trend towards small low-pulse calibers clearly arose because NATO partners in Europe, such as the United Kingdom with its Enfield SA 80, France with FAMAS or Belgium with FNC, and the United States with M-16, have already followed this example.

The budget constraints were dictated by one of the technical specifications: determine the appropriate design that has already been developed.
Two rifles, the Austrian Steyr AUG and the German Heckler & Koch HK50, entered the final list and were sent to 91 Bundeswehr technical centers in Meppen for comprehensive testing.

Earlier, a radical redistribution of the world power, which sounded the death knell for a major project G11, drove HK almost to the wall and the company was eventually absorbed by the British corporation Royal Ordnance.

Thus, the HK 50 project provided HK with a chance to get back on its feet. The company abandoned the idea of ​​a rifle with a semi-free shutter with roller braking and a body of extruded steel, instead turning to weapons with automatic gas with a short stroke of the gas piston and a butterfly valve in the body of reinforced polymer.

The dawn of a new service rifle, 5.56x45, fell on 8 on May 1995, when the head of the German Armed Forces Directorate General authorized the adoption of an assault rifle, thus blessing HK50 under the new official G36 index. The highly symbolic transfer took place on 3 on December 1997 of the year, when Rüdiger Petereit, director of the Federal Bureau of Defense Technologies and Procurement (BWB), introduced G36 to Major General Reiner Fell, Chief of Logistics Command SV, describing this event as the beginning of a "special period in stories weapons. "

Relationship Development: What kind of weapons were ordered by the German armed forces?


Current design: G36 KA4 with an EOTech telescope with backlight, 3x magnification, a light-laser module and an AG 36 40x36mm grenade launcher


Despite the media hype and discussion of the G36 Heckler & Koch, it should always be kept in mind that this assault rifle was introduced at a time when "9/11", the global war on terrorism, and German soldiers were fighting overseas in the desert. in Afghanistan and Iraq, it was quite inconceivable that the rifle would continue to provide superior value for money.

Heckler & Koch supplied what the specifications demanded in a relatively peaceful period. In addition, 55 countries currently use the Heckler & Koch assault rifle, among them 35 NATO countries belonging to NATO or the North Atlantic Alliance. There doesn't seem to be any customer complaints in such a long time, which means the whole "assault rifle scandal" is nothing more than a purely German issue.

But, undoubtedly, negative media reports have become frequent since 2012, claiming that the G36, once warmed up when fired, has a tendency to inaccurate shooting, and that effective combat against enemy forces is more or less impossible. These claims led to discussions and disputes between the German Ministry of Defense (in this case, the Federal Office of Defense Technologies and Procurement) and the manufacturer from the Black Forest. The statement that an assault rifle can become so inaccurate in the extreme conditions of foreign operations that it loses proof of its accuracy has dealt a severe blow to the image of a well-known manufacturer, hitting engineering skills.


A temporary solution now is the immediate provision of 600 G27P assault rifles of the 7.62x51mm NATO caliber, based on the design of the HK 417


HK 416 A5 caliber 5.56x45mm, will undoubtedly become one of the many alternatives G36


To summarize briefly: in March 2012 of the year, the German armed forces presented a “firing cycle under conditions close to the deployment of the Mission” (EBZ) as a standard operating procedure that describes the entire daily firing cycle of 150 rounds in 20 minutes.
The manufacturer took this EBZ to conduct tests at home with 10 different G36 models made from 1996 to 2008 year, which led to the publication of the report on the 134 pages "G36 assault rifle - analysis of the dispersion and accuracy behavior of the weapon when it overheats after a long shoot" .

Naturally, as with any other weapon, the laws of physics mean that overheated weapons will produce more large dispersed shots, and G36 is no exception.

But it is equally true that, in contrast to biased media, this degree of increased dispersion of shots and loss of accuracy is usually the exception rather than the rule, although the ammunition used is, of course, an additional factor (dual core ammunition MEN DM 11 also been criticized).

And so the inevitable happened: the Federal Office of Defense Technologies and Procurement applied for warranty service, based on significant overheating deficiencies and issues related to the service rifle. This led to further trials by independent institutes, and in April 2015, Ursula von der Leyen expressed her opinion for the first time that G36 would need to be replaced immediately.

Was the scandal associated with the assault rifle, the Germans?

In this regard, it is interesting to note that in the introductory paragraph to the latest, final part of the report of the Federal Bureau of the Bundeswehr equipment, information technology and service support (BAAINBw) partially rehabilitates G36. Unfortunately, we are still not in a position to view the full report, although only the preface by Major General Erich Könen, the head of the ground combat department at BAAINBw, triggered a political storm.


No one could have guessed that for the first phase of World War II, German soldiers would be called upon to use HK G 36 when the weapon was introduced in 1997.



Rumors circulated by 13 in May 2015 of the year suggested that opposition politicians accuse the Ministry of Defense of editing the final report before presenting it to the German parliament, burying the preface.

The Green Party defense expert, Tobias Lindner, called on Ursula von der Leyen to immediately present the foreword to the Defense Committee.

"The minister should explain why she provided parliament with incomplete information." The powers that be were forced to publish a controversial foreword online, accessible to anyone interested in reading it. And, in fact, the preface contains a passage that appears to question the decision about the withdrawal of G36. Here is a quote from the section in question:

“It is important to clarify that in order to understand the report, its purpose is not to evaluate other functional properties of the G36 assault rifle, related to its mass, reliability and functionality.

The battle situation "ambush" was chosen as, taking a cross-section of its basic tactical principles, it seems best suited for a "demanding battle situation" to analyze the consequences we asked for an investigation.

These situations are met and performed in all degrees of intensity and competence. Ambushes are combat situations in which combat troops and auxiliary forces can be drawn at any time. In these cases, the soldiers are forced to deal with high intensity combat.
The armed forces will be called upon during the review process to assess the likelihood of their occurrence. The result of this study will provide the armed forces with an understanding of how G36 works in an extremely demanding technical area, which will therefore enable them to draw conclusions for the preparation and execution of the mission as part of their operational and support duties. The G36 Selection Committee believes that G36 remains a reliable and functional weapon. The report does not indicate that the G36 rifle represents a risk to shooters, and there is no such risk at any point during the deployment of the weapon. "


Construction of bullpaps from other manufacturers: Croatian model VHS-2 from HS Products


ST Kinetics BMCR from Singapore will not be included in the selection procedure for new weapons for the German Army

Interesting workaround - also from Heckler & Koch

Now, 600 G27P assault rifles, based on the 417x7.62mm HK 51 and 600 MG4 5.56x45mm light machine guns from Heckler & Koch, will be purchased to cover emergency needs.

This has infuriated opposition parties, such as the 90 / Green Party and the Left Union, who claim nepotism and “turning poachers to rangers”. This is all the more surprising since purchases that begin in November of this year and end by the end of 2016 are certainly a smart move, given the current structure and logistics within the framework of the German armed forces.

In the end, soldiers serving on the ground in crisis regions will be able to use both of these types of weapons immediately, without spending time on a series of tests or other issues related to their deployment mission.

Promising candidates will replace HK G36


In the group of compact bullfight assault rifles, the Steyr AUG A3 caliber 5.56x45 is likely to be a favorite in retrofitting the German armed forces

Ursula von der Leyen (Ursula von der Leyen) bitterly stressed that the new machine - which is scheduled to be adopted from 2019 year - will be selected as part of an open, transparent tender.

It is worth noting here that Turkey became the first NATO member state to reintroduce the MPT76 rifle of the 7.62x51mm NATO caliber, instead of the more modern 5.56mm weapons.

Indeed, the new Turkish assault rifle bears a striking resemblance to the HK 417 of the same caliber.

If we assume that the German military is unlikely to initiate a general transition from the 5.56x45 caliber back to the 7.62x51mm NATO, the question remains as to which new 5.56mm assault rifles will be purchased as a replacement for the approximately 167,000 units of the HK G36 currently used by the Bundeswehr? This is one of those questions, like the one that says whether they can find a worthy alternative to assault rifles that are in service with NATO alliance partners.


Beretta ARX-160 is one of the modern representatives of traditional 5.56 assault rifles, in which the store is located in front of the trigger

France is also looking for a replacement for its veteran - the 5.56mm rifle according to the FAMAS bullpup scheme, and she has already initiated a tender for the purchase of assault rifles.

The UK's Enfield SA80, also in bullpup design, was commissioned to carry out upgrades and modifications at the Heckler & Koch plant.
Like their somewhat shaky counterparts from the United States, M16A4 / M4A1, both of these European weapons systems showed their weaknesses and, most likely, one place lower than the HK G36 in terms of handling and functional reliability. Thus, they are unlikely to become a viable alternative.


FN Herstal's Belgian FN SCAR family consists of modern assault rifles with a modular design.

If the plans include selecting a candidate from the world of compact assault rifles in the design of bull pap, more attractive arguments would be in favor of the Austrian assault rifle Steyr AUG A3, which will soon celebrate its 40 anniversary of intense military service and has already entered, for another reason, on the shortlist of the German armed forces, or in favor of the later Israeli assault rifle IWI Tavor TAR21.

But there are a lot of fish in the sea, so even traditionally built modern assault rifles with shops located in front of the trigger can be interesting options.

They will include the following marks (in alphabetical order, without claims for completeness): Beretta ARX-160, Remington Defense / Bushmaster ACR, Caracal 816S (more famous in Germany variants of the Haenel CR223 self-loading civilian weapons), CZ 805 BREN A1, FN SCAR, SIG MCX or Steyr STM 556.

It goes without saying that this group should not overlook the HK416 A5 (pseudonym G38), which the American and German elite units are already successfully using and which is currently one of the hottest contenders for the replacement of the M4 in the US armed forces.

There are still no clear instructions on how to choose a successor to HK G36, but we hope that this article and the background knowledge that it contains, has introduced our readers to the course of the matter and gave a high rating, quoting the press and political debates how this issue is developing.

          HK worked to the specified specifications. By weight, by muzzle velocity (depending on barrel length), accuracy by series of 5 and 10 rounds, by reliability. And UNDER THE GIVEN SPECIFICATIONS HC made an excellent rifle. Roughly the same way as Lagg-3, BT-7, T-26, and other guns were made under the GIVEN SPECIFICATIONS. What the generals ordered the manufacturer did. HC is no exception. But to save weight, they lightened the barrel (There is nothing more to lighten, the body is already plastic, and the bolt is dumb to lighten). And if so, it quickly heats up in automatic firing mode. There are no miracles. Physics cannot be fooled. G36 is an excellent rifle for the POLICE (when they shoot rarely and little, but they always carry it around).

          I don’t know how to get rid of it, but I know for sure that the Marines limitedly accepted into service. Although it is possible that for unification. They often cooperate with Germans, Norwegians and Poles.
          In principle, the idea is stillborn. It is clear that TK is descending from the top, and designers are making berdanks under the conditions in which they themselves are. For a clean Europe, a fitting is just that. But then again, the M16 / M4 and the FN are more futuristic (I don’t remember the index) are run everywhere wherever possible, but the G36 isn’t, except in the Baltic states, it’s unlikely. It would be better to go broke and take Czechs or Poles - the idea is more thought out and much cheaper.
          And by the way, OBS, the Balts do not use the G36 exercises, but give out the composition to G3, which is what it says.

      The Beretta ARX-160 is one of the modern representatives of traditional 5.56 assault rifles

      All European classification ONLY by cartridge power is stupid in principle. Based on it, it turns out that the AK-47 and AK-74 (or M16A2), for example, are assault rifles. Those. weapons of the same class. What is fundamentally wrong is a weapon of completely different classes.
      The AK-47 is a typical assault rifle. In all respects.
      AK-74 (and M16A2) is an advanced automatic rifle. Using a small-caliber cartridge of a new generation.
      Americans are right in the weapon classification system, not Europeans. Therefore, their M16A2 is not officially called Assault rifle, as journalists write, but Automatic rifle. Which is absolutely true and correctly reflects the essence of this weapon.
      In addition, you can still remember Tommy-gun. Which only in Europe because of the pistol cartridge was called a submachine gun. And in the USA it was called a submachine gun. Which roughly means "small machine gun". And this name quite accurately meant the essence of Tommy-gun. Which in its performance characteristics NEVER WAS a submachine gun. And comparing its performance characteristics with the performance characteristics of European PP is simply stupid. These are weapons of completely different classes, but on pistol cartridges. Which gave the Europeans reason to consider them classmates.
      Exactly the same "awkwardness" among the Europeans was organized with weapons on the classic intermediate and new small-caliber intermediate cartridges. The weapon is, as it were, formally the same, but in terms of performance characteristics they are completely different. The trouble.

    The trend towards small low-pulse calibers

    I'm wondering what ... my uncle came up with this crap called "low impulse" on the Internet?
    The new generation of small-caliber cartridges is completely different from this. This difference is completely insignificant.
    The main difference between small-caliber cartridges of the new generation is a completely different principle of action of their bullets. They behave differently in the victim's body. It is from this that they are what they are. And "low impulse" is just a side effect of new bullets. As well as reducing the power of the cartridge.

      The designation "low-impulse" appeared not with the Internet, but much earlier, with the advent of 5.56x45 mm and 5.45x39 mm cartridges, and the meaning of the word "low-impulse" lies in relation to recoil, not wound ballistics. Although, yes! for you, the History of the World began only after your birth, in other words, with the widespread consumption of the Internet in the Russian Federation.

      For deer, I explain the runway that is characteristic of all munitions that have supersonic speed, while small-bullets are not record-breakers for these indicators, and the loss of stability in the carcass is also not unusual - back in the 50s it was experimentally established that the standard bullet 7,62 , 39X10 from a distance of 5 m passing through the soft tissue of the thigh XNUMX cm from the bone leads to a comminuted fracture (consider destruction) of the femur, and when it enters the frontal projection of the carcass, it goes asshole.

        You, my dear, look in a book, and you see what is usually there. A combination of three fingers. Human, not a mammoth. He has "carcasses" of such a thickness that classic bullets have never needed. And it won't.
        Therefore, a bullet of a new principle of action was applied. To achieve the desired effect, it was necessary to make it small-caliber. And to ensure a normal effective range, there was enough power (only power, there is nothing more in common between them) of the classic intermediate cartridge. One with an effective effective range. And only then, under the parasitic energy of this cartridge (it is less than that of a rifle cartridge) a heat sink was made.
        And about the return, which turned out, such and good. This is a concomitant effect. Even the return of a rifle cartridge is considered acceptable. Especially those with light bullets. Or what, all handbrake and uniform in this option are no good? Have you tried to think before writing something? Give it a try. And then, look funny.

          Wow .. someone skipped physics at school .. I explain .. the impulse of "recoil" is equal to the product of the mass of the bullet by its initial velocity. however, a smaller caliber bullet weighs less, which means it has a low impulse, relative to the previous larger caliber bullet in this weapon system.
          As for the behavior of the bullet in the body .. I assure you .. she does not make trips to parts of the body, but always moves in a straight line. It can change direction if, for example, its speed in the body is not enough to pierce a bone, it will either break it or rebound and change its direction of movement, but this means that the bullet has already lost its energy and will stop soon.
          With these bullets "with a displaced center" so many legends walk around .., and the weight of illiteracy .. technical.

            Although there is such a barrel, a sawn-off shotgun, the Ksenia-AKS-74u, at close distances up to 50 m, is a terrible thing. In the morgue, bullets are taken out for a rather long time.

            One of the main characteristics of a bullet is its ability to transmit a final impulse to the body in the shortest amount of time. Those. stop as fast as possible. And here the classic bullets of the new small-caliber are not competitors. When hunting animals, expansive bullets are used to achieve this effect. Exactly for the same purpose. According to this ability, new small-caliber bullets are located between expansive and ordinary classical (old) ones.

              NU so the displaced center is the displaced center of mass of the bullet. It is usually pushed forward. This stabilizes the bullet in flight. This is true for small caliber bullets, due to size and weight. In the body, this bullet simply changes orientation MEETING an obstacle - a bone. Through a homogeneous mass, it will pass just like an ordinary bullet.

                And such a simple idea as - why do we need rifling in the trunk - never occurred to you? well, then I’ll answer you that the bullet stabilizes in flight by rotation, but when it enters a more dense environment than air, the rotation speed becomes already insufficient for stable stabilization and the bullet starts to rotate, the main difference between only the paths traveled in the tissues - the higher the transverse load of the bullet and the smaller the margin of stability, the faster and more energetically it begins to rotate. we look at the picture - the upper channel 7,62X39 57-H-231 lower 5,45X39 7H6 7,62 starts to rotate in the simulator after 7 cm and 5,45 after 5 and rotates more intensively - at a hundred meters through 14 cm of the wound channel, the nutation angle ( the deviation of the longitudinal axis of the bullet with respect to the trajectory of motion) in 5,45 is 120 g and in 7,62 35 g.
                The greatest damage at short ranges is caused by 5,56 M855 bullets - but this is not due to "low impulse" but to the design of the bullet itself, which is deformed and fragmented with the creation of secondary damaging elements, the modern M193 in this respect is much more humane and differs little from our 5,45 but the main thing is that as a result of the experiments, one interesting conclusion was made - In experiments with gunshot wounds of the extremities, it was found that Russian and American small-caliber bullets inflicted more severe damage to the skin and soft tissues compared to 7,62 mm bullets. The entrance openings on the skin during wounds by small-caliber bullets were usually smaller in size or corresponded to the diameter of the bullet; the exit openings were most often large, irregularly oval or polygonal in shape with tears along the edges. In wounds with both small-caliber and 7,62 mm bullets, multi-fragmented fractures of long tubular bones of the extremities with an extensive bone defect along the PC and numerous cracks were quite close in severity. Gunshot fractures caused by small-caliber bullets were complicated, as a rule, by fragmentation of bullets.

                  Suddenly, momentum is the product of mass and speed. And time has nothing to do with it.
                  A bullet does not transmit an impulse to the body. The real world is not theoretical mechanics, but a bullet and a target - not two absolutely elastic bodies. If the bullet transmitted an impulse, then the target’s carcass would not be damaged, but would fly back at high speed.
                  And the bullet just does not have to transmit all its momentum to the target. It should transfer only part of its energy to the carcass of the target in the form of kinetic, which will allow the target to tip over to the ground. Moreover, this is most important for police and civilian weapons, where the contact distance is 5-30 meters.
                  A military bullet, on the contrary, should first of all produce plastic deformation in the target with the maximum possible destruction of its organs.
                  So the bullet should primarily transmit not just an impulse, but energy.

                  A new small-caliber, in time. Specially done.


                  Just the new small-caliber bullets are made so as to reduce the damaging effect due to its turn / deformation / rupture. And the reason is never in philanthropy: a modern bullet must first break through a bulletproof vest, which means - it is based on a heavy and durable core. You will be able to invent a bullet that first gives the body armor the minimum amount of its energy, passing through it, and then gives its energy to the body to the maximum - get rich. Just do not forget that the bullet should be small and cheap.

                      This would be if there had not been a transition of energy from one species to another. The theorem on the change in the momentum of the system (the theorem on the conservation of momentum in a school-like way) works only in the case of an ideal system in which the energy is only kinetic. In all other cases, the more general energy conservation law works.

              Expansive bullets .. They do not just kill a vital organ, like a standard bullet. It causes a) a severe pain shock (this alone can kill) b) a severe hydroblow, having fallen into the region of a vital organ, this bullet will not even reach him, but will break it with a hydroblow.

                Yeah Learn the theory. This is common to all bullets. One to a smaller (classic), another to a slightly larger (new small-caliber), and the third to the greatest extent (expansive).
                A cartridge whose bullet does not cause all of the "charms" described by you is incapacitated. And should be used for hunting smaller animals. To determine the suitability of a cartridge for each type of "living creature", the concept of "effective range" is used.
                It can be 0 m. Then they say that the cartridge for hunting this living creature is not suitable. Because he can destroy living creatures only in the manner described by you, i.e. getting into a vital center. And this is an element of luck.
                Next are conditionally suitable ammo conditionally (for ersatz weapons). Animals they are likely to destroy. But at reduced distances.
                Next are suitable cartridges. The best option, on such cartridges you can create a balanced high-quality weapon.
                And then go cartridges of excess power. You can hunt, but like a cannon on sparrows.
                Clear? Each living creature has its own cartridge with its own bullet. And then go out hunting for a tiger with AK-47, you will get into it 30 times, and he will be offended and will punish you. It doesn’t hurt. One and all.

                Not necessary. For example, the British, when Doom Doom bullets were banned for use in combat, noticed that if you make a bullet with the center of gravity shifted back, it will tumble in the tissues. Which was done with the 303 British cartridge. Moreover, the British noticed that bullets with a lightweight nose gave out greater accuracy at long distances. And the British were the FIRST, EMNIP who noticed and did it all. https://www.theboxotruth.com/the-box-o-truth-37-the-deadly-303-british-and-the-box-o-truth/

      This is an attempt to reduce returns in the Kalashnikov system. One of the impulses, and a significant one, is associated with the operation of the gas mechanism. The massive shutter and piston make non-frail journeys at high speed, which causes the instability of the whole machine, but provides tremendous reliability.
      So, changing the bolt mechanism in AK, we get no longer AK .., but some garbage in his guise.
      In Izhevsk, they took a different approach, they left the shutter and automation almost unchanged, but around this they built a shell, which should reduce and compensate for the impulses of the bolt group.

          Read Fedorov or Blagonravov, they talked about a short line for automatic weapons back in the 30 of the last century. Short burst shooting was practiced in the Soviet army always.
          "Strict ban" is the Western stereotype of "working by standards." To some extent, it works. But an experienced fighter decides for himself in a specific situation how to fight. Single or short bursts.

          The same Wehrmacht, combining the accurate 5-shot Mauser and the MG 34 machine gun, sought
          tactical advantage.


          Suddenly, by the middle of the Second World War, he realized what stupidity he had done, but it was too late.
          By 1943, he admitted this to himself and honestly tried to fundamentally change this concept, transferring troops to a new individual weapon that made each soldier a fighter, and not a cog in guarding machine gunners. He requested for each fighter an automatic weapon under an intermediate cartridge with an effective combat range of up to 300 meters. But a misfortune happened: the great Hugo Schmeiser constructed this weapon, which bankrupted more than one of his companions. The result is a little predictable.
          But the concept of the USSR was different: each soldier was the main combat unit, armed with a semi-automatic rifle. Naturally, the semiautomatic devices, which cost more than light machine guns, were not enough for everyone during the war, and they were replaced by development magazines of the last century. It was only in parallel with them that submachine guns were used, but not like the ones around the world, but special ones: with a range of actual fire of up to 200 meters. In fact, in terms of combat capabilities it was already ersatz-PDW, only heavy.
          In the United States, they were able to arm everyone with semi-automatic weapons.

            I am amazed. Write everything correctly. Perhaps they even read it with me earlier. And perhaps themselves.
            But not about that now. 300 m, it was a compromise. It was necessary 400-450 m, like an automatic rifle. But in this case, it was impossible to create individual weapons. Only the handbrake. And even then, in the case of a successful design (Lewis). With an unsuccessful design, only an automatic rifle (DP-27) was obtained. Or something in between.
            Therefore, it was decided to reduce parasitic energy by reducing the power of the cartridge, and this resulted in a decrease in the effective fire range. Calculations showed that a sufficient combat rate of fire can be achieved with a cartridge power of about 2000 J. Which gave an effective range of 300 m. This is how the German stormtroopers appeared. An ersatz weapon for patching holes in fire density.

And from this the prime cost of one shot was generally prohibitive. Yes, and these rifles needed a lot.

    Above of the listed assault rifles have a gas vent mechanism with a short piston stroke, SCS, of course, there are advantages of relatively high accuracy in comparison with a long piston stroke, AKM. But AK-type weapons have a good trait of "omnivorous" ammunition, regardless of the country of manufacture.
    And so the trends are already noticeable, an increase in accuracy at long distances. Understandably, there is no desire for "close contact".
    Here is a photo of a Turkish rifle.
    The MKEK weapons concern (Makina ve Kimya Endüstrisi Kurumu) began work on the creation of a new 5.56mm machine gun for the Turkish army in 2007. The first 5.56mm caliber samples appeared by 2008 under the name Mehmetçik-1, and were constructively based on the German HK 416 rifle. However, in the future the Turkish army, based on its own wide experience of using weapons for different types of cartridges (7.62mm NATO in HK G3 rifles , 7.62x39 in AKM Kalashnikov assault rifles and 5.56mm NATO in HK 33 assault rifles) apparently decided that the new army rifle (assault rifle) should use NATO cartridge 7.62x51. As a result, in May 2014, the first batch of MKEK MPT-76 Mehmetçik-2 automatic rifles, structurally and outwardly similar to the German 7.62mm HK 417 rifles, was delivered to the Turkish Army units in May. The fate of the 5.56mm version of the same system is still unknown. The MPT-76 rifle designation stands for Milli Piyade Tüfeği - National Infantry Rifle.

    Automatic rifle (automatic) MKEK MPT-76 uses a gas automatic with a short-stroke gas piston located above the barrel. The barrel is locked by a rotary bolt with 7 combat stops. The receiver is made of aluminum alloy and is connected by two transverse pins to the aluminum box of the trigger mechanism, made integrally with the mine shaft. Cartridge feeding - from two-row magazines made of transparent plastic. The design provides a shutter lag. Butt telescopic, adjustable in length. Sights are mounted on an integrated Picatinny rail on the receiver. The rifle is standardly equipped with a front sight on a folding base located on the gas block and a folding adjustable aperture entirely on a removable base. In addition, the rifle is equipped with a quick-detachable carrying handle that has a longitudinal channel for using the main front and rear sights, as well as its own U-shaped front sight and rear sight for offhand shooting, at short ranges. Of course, the carrying handle can be easily replaced with a collimator, optical or night sight if necessary. On the forearm of the rifle, additional guides of the Picatinny type can be installed for attaching accessories, a bayonet-knife can be attached to the barrel.

    It’s raining outside, the weather is foul ...
    Maybe I’ll revive this branch.
    What kind of ammunition will be used in the future, 7,62x51? Yes, it is quite possible, but this weapon will be for the rapid reaction forces or whatever ... Yes, a rather powerful cartridge, even assault rifles with a short piston stroke will be able to "digest" it, regardless of countries of the producer, terms and conditions of storage, or maybe released in "artisanal" conditions, it seems there was an article about the production of 7.62x39 in Pakistan or on the border with Afghanistan.
    For regular armies, 5.45 and 5.56 are preferable, economically viable. Sentry to walk, initial fire training, etc. But special. I prefer the services of 7.62, which I judge. The staer didn’t take root, but the ARX-160 and AK in 7.62x39 are successful. Here from 5.45 there were problems, fine sand fell into the chamber, I had to juggle the shutter again, the stores also had to be cleaned. From 7.62 this did not happen. The omnipresent dust, fine sand.
    So I see the return of 7.62 but the weapon should be of a modular design, with two (different lengths) barrels, possibly with a short piston stroke.

        As for DMT, this is mainly for draftees. Now they have an average weight of 80 kg. passes over.
        In general, when I was at our place, we pulled up a PC with BC and 1.5 meters with a barn weight while shooting from SVD, mechanics showed amazing results. Now they are not called up below 1.65 m, they have to give bribes or go on courses, without WB, the road to state structures closed or enterprises with state participation.

          Don't make me laugh. The very phrase "the Turks have created their new rifle" looks suspicious. The MPT-76 is a kind of intermediate option between the full-fledged DP-27 automatic rifle and the HK417 advanced self-loading (self-loading with the ability to conduct automatic fire). Neither fish nor meat, in short.
          To make it clearer, advanced self-loading combat rates of fire are higher than just self-loading, but less than automatic rifles. And besides, they can shoot a little bursts. This is such a hybrid, and nothing more. Not a full automatic rifle.

              I AM? And where am I? There are quite specific criteria. In Europe and the USA they are not so that they are exactly the same.
              But in general, it is an INDIVIDUAL weapon on a rifle cartridge, which provides the ability to conduct automatic fire with a combat rate of 70-80 rounds per minute.
              There are also advanced automatic rifles (they are not singled out in all countries, for example, the USA does not distinguish them at all, there has been a sluggish debate on this subject for many years). They have a combat rate of 80-100 rounds per minute.
              And there is self-loading with the ability to conduct automatic fire. There, who is in great demand, but not more than 70 rounds per minute.
              The same applies to weapons on cartridges with a new small-caliber bullet. According to their performance characteristics, these are typical automatic rifles. And even all but M16A1 are advanced. Despite the fact that they have cartridges of reduced (intermediate) power.

                      Here again, confusion with the terms. If to speak the European language, then the weapon on the new small-caliber cartridges is also an assault rifle. On a formal basis.
                      Americans disagree with this and call such weapons automatic rifles.
                      Here I agree with the Americans, formalities, formalities, but according to the technical specifications such weapons are the most real full-fledged automatic rifles. But with a reduced cartridge power. And with real assault rifles (on classic cartridges), because of a weak cartridge, their performance characteristics are also worse. Worse than automatic rifles.

      If rifle, then there is sadness. Under this cartridge can not make an individual automatic weapon. Because it contradicts the laws of physics. But if you still try hard, as they did in the USSR, then such an automatic rifle will look about the same as the DP-27 automatic rifle looked. True, in the USSR, in order not to be dishonored, it was called a machine gun. But this is an ordinary Soviet propaganda lie. It is enough to look at its performance characteristics to understand that it is a heavy, multi-charge automatic rifle on a bipod. And to her machine gun, like ... Well, then you come up with something yourself. You can also do self-loading with the ability to conduct automatic fire. They are made by Germans, Turks. And proudly called automatic rifles. Which is also a lie. These are advanced self-exercises, and nothing more.
      If the intermediate is classic, then there is also a stove. But the other. The weapon on this cartridge does not have a sufficient effective range. Simply put, the weapon on this cartridge is an ersatz weapon. Its small-scale production is justified for some special operations. But for full-fledged army needs, it is not suitable. This was even understood in the USSR in the mid-70s. And the production of such weapons was stopped. And stocks were given away to “friends” - the townspeople all over the world.
      Therefore, today there is simply no alternative to small-caliber cartridges with bullets of a new generation. And no one is going to replace them with anything. Because just nothing.

          The PKK has never been a full-fledged light machine gun. He was just called that. The range of its effective fire was limited to 300-320 m. Therefore, in 1974. such weapons were abandoned.
          As for the Turks, there THEORETICAL effective range is really far beyond 400 m (cartridge property). But in fact, no more than 450 m (weapon property). That such an imbalance between the cartridge and the weapon takes place. In addition, a small density of fire.
          More or less normal light machine gun of the USSR and the Russian Federation is ONLY Pecheneg. He is an old English Lewis at a new technological level. So, in the field of shooting, Russia is gradually catching up with the world that has gone ahead. Already have a gun (PY) and a handbrake (Pecheneg), If you don’t particularly pick and choose, then a sniper is quite good. It remains to do something with weapons on a 5,45x39 mm cartridge. This, of course, will be expensive. But you need to do something. There, not to say that complete horror. But also not entirely good. Therefore, I think everything will remain so. Until better times. Nevertheless, the situation is more or less tolerant.
          Well, and the little things. For the army, pasta must be reassigned to a caliber of 7.62 mm, for example. Even under the old TT bullet, it would have worked out quite well too.

          I repeat once again, an alternative to it today can only be a bunch of self-loading on a rifle cartridge (even if it is advanced, with the ability to sometimes shoot with automatic fire) + a handbrake on the same cartridge. The new rifle cartridge on the classic 7,62 mm bullet today could of course be different. 7,62x54 mm is already quite archaic, it is not even a rifle cartridge, but rather a "machine gun" cartridge. Which should generally only be used with a heavy bullet in machine tools.
          Of course, you can imagine that a "knight's move" will be made, and instead of the 5,45x39 mm cartridge, a new 7,62x46-49 mm rifle cartridge on a classic bullet will be adopted. And the weapon described above is on it. But somehow I can't believe it. Expensive.
          There is also a second THEORETICAL alternative, switch to the NATO small-caliber cartridge. Which would also be nice, the cartridge on the SS109 pool is very good. But this is from the realm of fiction.

                  Insanity is that it was not necessary to equip the entire army with ersatz weapons. No, it is understandable that such a flawed tendency in the USSR came from the unfortunate "mouth of machine gunners". But then at least there was a war, there were no normal weapons, they had to invent something. But after the war, why?
                  The Germans did their assault because they had a catastrophically reduced density of fire. Machine guns and machine gunners physically ran out. Therefore they consciously went to reduce the effective fire range in order to increase its density. As a temporary measure during the war. After the war, the USSR did not pull its tail. But he also armed himself with such an ersatz.
                  They realized only after 27 years. And once again rearmament. A bunch of money was wasted.
                  In short, the insanity is that an assault rifle is a defective army weapon. Erzatz. You can use it, but in some specific cases. In general, this is a bad weapon. Weapons with impaired performance characteristics.

                  But for some reason it is being used in the army. And just this is the main disgrace.
                  Although for the army I would have adapted it too. The fact is that in the army there is no service pistol. Not available after the removal of the Nagan revolver. So macaroni in caliber 7,62 mm with a re-squeezed sleeve and a bullet from the TT (better from the gun, but planted in a pistol way) would be just right.

                    It is designed as a weapon. You can shoot yourself.
                    Special forces, of course, need a different barrel, we use the Glocks and Cesets, which were not at the same time transferred to the Cobalt revolver under the PM, a cartridge. It is convenient to use one free hand.

                    I didn’t understand much, TT is Mauser, 7.63x25 with Naganov’s capsule. Nagron cartridge, there is a dull lead bullet in the sleeve. There, a sleeve type mechanic moves and rests on the barrel, a couple of times shot-house sleeves were lying around, the platoon itself was tight very tight.
                    What does TT look like, look like HAI POWER, or something in it. It dries, the handle if it's good to wrap honey. plaster or electrical tape, with resin. Th will not be. But overly powerful.

      Correctly expressed about the wunder-arms school. Stg-44, FG-42, Kar 43 - the burghers know a lot about perversions.
      The same HK G3 is a licensed copy of the CETME rifle (yes, I know that German designers from Mauser participated in the development, and the very half-free roller shutter scheme was proposed by Forgrimler, but it was designed on CETME). And the use of the G3 scheme brought HK world fame: the G3 itself, MP5, G51 / 53, PSG-1.
      It is a pity, of course, that they did not bring the G11 to mind. Although, probably, it turned out that in production using modern technologies it will be the Frankenstein monster worse than the FG-42.

        Not everyone is as lucky as the Americans. Tommy ghans were only with them. Yes, and Garanda, too. Although the very successful British Lee-Anfield bolts could well compete with the Garands. But the British didn’t have anything like Tommy-gun.

Well, then politics already intervened - the collapse of the USSR buried not only the Warsaw Pact but also the G-000 project - in 11 Germany united, the Bundeswehr increased sharply, but the completely different weapons of its "halves" required urgent standardization (and this was absolutely all about starting with footcloths and ending with aircraft), plus US pressure to standardize small calibers, as a result, a lot of weapons were required, quickly and as cheaply as possible, as a result, the contract for the G-1990 was terminated (several thousand managed to release them) and the NK-11 / G-50 entered the scene, but that's another story - if you speak German read Wolfgang Sela's book Die G-36 Story where this whole epic is described.

Changing it causes huge costs, both visible (the production of new cartridges, their delivery in parts, disposal of old ones), and hidden ones - new stores and calibers (I hope you know that) and so on. The cost of the weapon itself is not the main one in this chain.

    Good performance characteristics have become the reason that "grendel" is gaining popularity in sports, and this is a very good marker. It's a pity not everyone understands this.

      And you have exactly the opposite story. In the 6,5s of the last century, all who once mistakenly adopted it and used it massively abandoned army weapons in the caliber of 30 mm. Moreover, just in spite of these very "huge costs".

      This is generally no information. The bullet should not only reach the target, but also do something there in the carcass of a soldier. Something specific. In this case, a piece of paper is very different from this very carcass. Therefore, sports weapons, this is one topic. But the army is completely different.

    TTX "grendel" is on the network. The cartridge's har-ki are quite sufficient for the bio-target, and no worse than those of 5,45 and 5,56.

    The reference to sports is quite appropriate. Especially considering the fact that the sport in which the "grendel" is used is quite combat and much, tested in it, is then prescribed on army weapons.

      I already wrote to you that you are not aware of the different types of bullets. And you slip me some bullshit. Look here, on the branch, I already laid out a tablet with how bullets of various types behave in the carcass. Hryundel is not there, but he will be worse than the worst, i.e. worse than 7,62x39 mm. Because He is a classic and reduced caliber. This has long been well known to everyone but you, a fact. Therefore, everyone refused weapons in this caliber.
      No, still I’ll lay out a description plate again. In war, the maximum thickness of the ham is somewhere around 15 cm (this is where it is cut off to the right). And the usual one is 10 cm (the figure is 10 at the bottom and a white line). Now look what bullets of different models make on this thickness. Bullets No. 2 and 4, the usual classic, classic (caliber 7,62 mm). Bullet number 1, a new small-caliber. A bullet number 3, expansive, hunting. Where the black horizontal area is the wound channel. Where outlined in thin black, this is the area of ​​concussion. The difference in the degree of exposure to bullets of different types noticed? This is not a piece of paper for you to drill a hole in the shooting range.

      For the expansive you will be imprisoned for the rest of your life. It is in a humane country. And in the inhumane hang.
      With a poorly stabilized one, it will not work either. A 6,5 mm bullet is too large for a human carcass. Specifically, too long. Therefore, its effectiveness will be less than that of today's small-caliber weakly stabilized bullets. Then the question arises, why would it be needed?
      In order not to be unfounded I will give you another example as an example. Everything is there, as in the past, only in the middle is a Yugoslav weakly stabilized bullet with a caliber of 7,62 mm added. A weakly stabilized 6,5 mm bullet will be better than it, but worse than 5,45 mm. Somewhere between them. Everything is very simple and clear. See for yourself.

    If you shoot at a bird, then it is large, if at an elephant, then it is small. But we are not talking about that, but about military weapons. The characteristics of the cartridge are quite consistent with the military use. Nobody forbids picking up a more effective bullet. You shouldn't get hung up on wound channels because nobody canceled energy. And it is much higher for the "Grendel" than for low-impulse automatic cartridges.

    At the same time, the cartridge has excellent flatness and accuracy. According to this indicator, it is better than 7,62x39 and doesn’t kill the barrel like that. And the recoil momentum is less. Which is very useful for automatic weapons.

    For our army, this cartridge is all the more interesting because it is based on a Russian / Soviet cartridge case, which is useful from an economic point of view.

    In general, in the modern world a lot of experimenting with different calibers. And it is quite justified. Therefore, 5,7 FN for pistols and PPs, and intermediate automatic calibers, and more powerful rifle ones - Tempora mutantur et nos mutamur in illis were born.

    I myself did not shoot a weapon with a "grendel", but my friends athletes highly appreciated its potential, primarily for military automatic weapons.

    By the way, the world's first machine gun was also developed for a similar caliber. I recommend studying the question. Then there will be no "conclusions" about the unsuitability of this caliber for army weapons.

      I do not even want to go into the list of disadvantages of this van der wafer. No hands are enough to list everything.
      In addition, I would like to inform you that this "machine gun" in its performance characteristics was not an assault rifle, like an assault rifle or an AK-47. And for this reason alone it cannot be called the "first assault rifle", as various unfortunate writers write.
      Ballistically, it was not quite a full-fledged carbine-machine gun on an intermediate power cartridge. In terms of performance characteristics, a direct competitor to the American M2 Carbine. But he at least did not claim the proud name of the "machine gun", but was quite content with the title of a carbine-machine gun. And the carbine cartridge is 1,5 times (!!!) less powerful than the cartridge of Fedorov's fart.
      I specify for you the effective range of fire:
      The norm for assault rifles is 330 m.
      For carbines on their cartridge - 300 m.
      SCS - 330 m.
      AK-47 - 310 m.
      Sturmgever - 290 m.
      Machine gun carbine - 220 m
      Semi-automatic (self-loading) carbine (which carbine is not known in Russia and the USSR, and its name, carbine, is called what is called short rifle in the world. Cutoff, literally) - 200 m.
      Pukalka Fedorova (on an intermediate power cartridge !!!, i.e. 1,5 times more powerful than a normal carbine) - 175 m.
      The Danuvian submachine gun - 130 m (on the pistol !!! cartridge 2,5 times weaker than the Fedorov fart cartridge).

      I do not know such information. Why is this needed? The recoil of the DP-27 (and the entire further range of the Pecheneg) is 1,5 times greater than that of the AK-47. And nothing obsolete everyone. I will not give foreign samples, there are a million of them.
      Is it hard to get from the AK-47 to the target? So the weapon must be made normal, balanced. Then it will work out. And if you cut out a piece of iron from a piece of iron which, with a not very high recoil force, twitches like an additive, then it really is a disaster. But where does the power of bestowal here? Maybe you need to review the design?

I hope you will be taken away for three months this time. well, if you touch the ham so beloved by this character - probably his childhood was difficult and the ham was not a realizable dream - well, you know, the ham is not very similar in design to gelatin - there is also a bone laughing

    On my own, I’ll add to ban not only the gross kaput troll itself, but also all of its many clones.
    exactly in a binge, and even quite a while ago, because paranoid hallucinations are part of alcoholic psychosis that develops only after several days of binge. laughing
    and why a dozen - take more - I have 17 pluses - each of my clones gave me a plus, or you can count 000 minuses differently - each of my clones gave you a minus, in total I have at least 2000 clones. Or maybe everything is much simpler? and I, unlike you, do not carry nonsense? Think about it at your leisure with your "shell shock" laughing

    That's what a major general is (and first RI and then the USSR)

    I do not need to describe his biography. I know her better than yours. I didn’t ask him for a biography, but asked a very clear question: WHAT DOES THIS PEPPER CREATE CREATED IN ORDER TO BE CONSIDERABLE TO BE CONSIDERABLE DESIGNER OF A SHOOT WEAPON? And the right answer NOTHING CREATED ANYTHING. For his little bullet AF is not even worth a discussion. For reasons, see my comments upstream.
    But generals and even marshals in the USSR were like dogs. Listen to everyone, it makes no sense.

    Fedorov, a recognized specialist in firearms who has written many good books on the topic, which are translated into many languages, is rightfully considered one of the founders of the national weapons school

    Really? Who is recognized? You? This is an argument.
    What languages? Chukchi, Evenk and Sami? Who in the world was interested in what the "designers of the Soviet school of small arms" think? They never created a normal weapon. Why then ask for their opinion?
    You are an amazing dreamer. Rare.

    thanks to him, he managed to launch the Kovrov machine gun factory in 1920

    Do not la la. You find free ears and hang your noodles there. I already know how they said goodbye to him there with the help of a knee in the ass. Sent tries together with his fart. And I must say, this decision was amazingly true and wise.

    Those. you are trying to pass off an official as a designer. Oh well. Why don't you refer to Kulik's works? He was an even larger official. And not a general, but a marshal. True, he was shot. Has this made its "design weight" less?
    No, you are definitely a big dreamer.

    Well, at least you do not persist in the fact that the consistency of the human torso is the same as the ham. Already commendable. You start to recover. Congratulations.

    In places. But in places it is not. Just like the gelatin model.

    The vocabulary of a specialist is felt. I'm scared for you. How do you know such words? So said the doctor who examined you for the last time? It seems like that.

    But the translation !!! Apparently, the program translated, and the authors then forgot to attach a hand to editing


    I agree, especially pleased with this signature "No one could have guessed that for the first stage of World War II, German soldiers would be called upon to use the HK G 36 when the weapon was introduced in 1997"
    Either there was an eyelid and meant the third world, or we are talking about a time machine (then the surprise is understandable :))

    Apparently Promt steers. IMHO, the text should be like this - No one could have guessed that for the first time since the start of World War II, German soldiers would use the G-36 in combat, a weapon developed only in 1997.
    In general, I agree, the purest policy, even to an amateur it is clear that if the problems are so fatal, it is enough to increase the barrel thickness by half a millimeter, make fins and slots in the forend for cooling. This is just so, offhand. Well, there will be a gram two hundred heavier ...
    This is not a machine gun, the requirements are different.
    This is all accomplished directly in the troops, and the costs of any order of magnitude less than the adoption of a new rifle.
