"Kalashnikov" to promote products to the markets will create 3-dimensional models of weapons

The Kalashnikov Concern, faced with restrictions after the introduction of anti-Russian sanctions, is taking a number of measures to promote its products to foreign markets, among them the creation of demonstration models weapons in 3D, transmit channel RT.

“Due to the restrictions imposed, the company cannot import weapons to a number of countries to participate in exhibitions. In order to circumvent such restrictions, the company's specialists create three-dimensional models of weapons that can be demonstrated to foreign customers, ”the company’s marketing director Vladimir Dmitriev quotes.

For the Defense Ministry, the concern is ready to offer several new samples.

“We are ready to offer the military completely new products that have more advanced mechanisms, ergonomics, accuracy indicators and accuracy of fire. On the "Army-2016" everyone will be able to meet them. For example, there we will show the latest AK-12 machine gun, variants of kits for upgrading the previous series of Kalashnikov assault rifles in service. These kits make it possible to increase the effectiveness of combat use of weapons by one and a half times, ”said Dmitriev.

Kalashnikov also intends to expand supplies of civilian weapons to the Russian market.

“One of the main tasks is to increase the share of civilian products destined for the domestic market,” he stressed.

It is noted that with the help of this program, the company plans this year to increase its revenues in 2 by comparison with 2015 g, i.e. from 8,2 billion to 17,7 billion.

Kalash does not need advertising. This weapon is very unpretentious. But I would argue about the quality of precision weapons, such as SVD, but Kalash is the best for the question of assault weapons.

Kalash does not need advertising.

I agree, but he really needs money ... The brand was registered, it's time to close factories in Poland, China, etc., or let them pay ...! ! Our lawyers, that is not moving .. And this is a billion dollars!

[Roman1970]

Eh, my friend, money is ALWAYS necessary AND EVERYONE. Selyavy ....

[cniza]

The brand was registered, it's time to close the factories in Poland, China, etc., or let them pay ...! They stamp the garbage there, under the Kalash brand Kalashnikov registered this brand in Russia before his death! Our lawyers, that is not moving ... And this is a billion dollars!

This must be dealt with and very seriously, it’s time to show us teeth.

They will not close and will not pay ...

Licenses for the production of Kalashnikov assault rifles and technical documentation during the years of the USSR were transferred to 18 countries (including many countries of Eastern Europe, Vietnam, Egypt, China, Iraq, North Korea, Cuba, Algeria, Zimbabwe, Malta, Mozambique and Tanzania). ... As explained in the concern, to date, after the statute of limitations, they have lost legal force.

Well, what about the brand itself:

It will be difficult for the Russian Kalashnikov concern to return to the United States market if sanctions are lifted
On December 23, the American company Kalashnikov USA LLC filed an application for registration in the USA of the Kalashnikov trademark for classes related to weapons, ammunition, ammunition, repair and maintenance of weapons. On 14 of January 2015 of the same year, the same company filed an application for registration of a visual trademark in the form of the letter K in the USA, the basis of which is a curved vending machine.
...
As the Kalashnikov concern told Izvestia, the Russian company itself did not register the trademark in the United States - "due to anti-Russian sanctions, the process of registering a mark in the United States has been suspended."
...
The lawyer believes that if, after the lifting or easing of sanctions, the Kalashnikov concern decides to return to the American market, Kalashnikov USA (provided that it is not connected with the Russian concern) will complain to it and prohibit the use of the brand in the United States. Thus, sales from the Russian side will stop.

I would argue about SVD too. In its niche (for a sniper in the squad) - the best rifle.
For special operations to eliminate is no longer in the first place, but not sucks.

This is not really Kalash. Vyatskiye Polyany plant, prototype Kalashnikov light machine gun. Here we are talking about Izhevsk products.

Actually, ALL "Kalash", from the word AK. It’s fenced in with the Hammer (therefore, the familiar word Boar still goes in the name), it’s automatic machines, not the PKK and its derivatives. The people come across trunks of both the 50s and 60s goals.

[hartlend]

What is the problem? Get a license and buy.

[Mountain shooter]

Russian weapons, especially those in service, pass the toughest tests in the world, and everyone knows that. Therefore, they appreciate it. Well, three-dimensional models are a good move around sanctions. If customers have a desire to purchase something, no sanctions will not hinder him.

I am somehow at a loss. What 3D models do you mean? Just a copy of wood for display at exhibitions or a computer model?
Why something, and in all games there are these 3D models, and without Kalash nothing happens there, it’s just a necessary brand in the game, and at our factory that it has not been created yet by this model? Yes, this can not be. What century outside the window and what the author wanted to write (or say) about 3D models. You need to drive such marketers out of the factory if you still haven’t overrun this market with 3D models.
Armata and even then in the game "Armata" already exists in the form of 3D, and even a simple pistol should be so even more so.

[ILDM1986]

3d model 3d model discord. In games, all weapons are in low resolution, with low accuracy and insufficiently developed functionality. The enterprises are likely to use 3D modeling, but it apparently talks about a public program. Moreover, the application should have ample opportunities: a demonstration of incomplete and complete disassembly of the product, the operation of automation, the connection of all sorts of whistle-fakes (various stores, sights, fins, stocks, tactical handles, grenades, belts, etc.), changing the color of the weapon. all this in a couple of movements, I hope this is what this is all about.
although in our time, even the color change of the store is presented as none other than Divine Revelation

[Achilles]

The AK-12 has a magazine with 95 rounds, here's the thing

[Roman1970]

And what doesn’t suit you with a 45 rounds magazine from the PKK? Or a disk, if I’m not mistaken, 72 cartridges from the same machine? Everything fits into a simple AKM.

[rotmistr60]

creation of demonstration models of weapons in 3D

Well done, found a way out in this situation.

[old pioneer]

I do not think that 3D model toys will significantly affect sales growth. Two factors are enough - the reputation of Kalash and the situation in the world.

[hartlend]

I understand your humor. In fact, civility "consists in the expansive action of the bullet. The bullet does not pierce through, but flattens out and transfers its energy to the target as much as possible. They are intended for hunting, it is forbidden to use against people. Nothing is said about liberals.

[Vladimirets]

What a set of letters !?

[hartlend]

There is also a rifled saiga. A smooth barrel is far from a piston; in the 12th caliber it is in service in special forces of Russia and abroad. For urban combat has many advantages.

[gridasov]

I think it’s time to take up the use of new types of weapons on the new principles of movement in the space of the striking element. Sooner or later, everyone will come to this. Maybe this time has come !?

I think it’s been taken a long time.

[old pioneer]

Russian President Vladimir Putin recently announced on March 29 that in 2015, the Russian Federation sold arms to other countries in the amount of $ 14,5 billion, exceeding the previously planned figure. Putin confirmed that so far Russia has received a $ 56 billion request for arms. This rapid pace has been observed for the first time since 1992, but this happened, among other things, thanks to contracts signed last year in the amount of $ 26 billion. The Russian newspaper Kommersant emphasized that India, Iraq and China were the main areas of Russian arms export in accordance with last year. The newspaper explained that Russia’s plans - and it pays special attention to this - are delivering weapons to Algeria, as well as implementing signed contracts with Beijing and Cairo. (InoSmi stole)
So the Kalashnikov concern can triple the amount of sales.

[gridasov]

When you sell weapons to third countries that do not have the technology to develop new types of weapons, you need to understand. that if you yourself do not own a more powerful and modern weapon, then this sold weapon will be used against you. In addition, such third countries not only lack technology, but also lack a stable political position. Therefore, "en masse" they are already a threat - this time. This means that money should not be invested in the toilet. but into new types of developments. What's new? Nothing! "Pukalki" as they were and remain.

[hartlend]

Maybe triple, or maybe not. Judging by the news, buyers want high-tech expensive weapons - tanks, planes, S-400, Ikander, etc. NATO countries will not buy our AK-12 out of principle, but budget countries, because it's expensive. Until now, AKMs are fighting, satisfied. The civilian arms market was also severely undercut. In monetary terms, would return his.

[pts-m]

Warehouses are stocked up, and there is no dough. A simple way out of this situation is to sell all these Kalashi to the people of Russia. Without any supervision from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, etc.

Already. And not only AK. They are removed from warehouses, "fenced" and on the showcase, VPO-136 is an example of this.

VPO-136 is a civilian rifled weapon of the caliber 7,62x39, which is based on combat models AK-47 and AKM of release from 1960 to 1980. The original cover, butts, forend, stamped cover, automatic transmission, 1200 bar, stamps and numbers are preserved.

All the changes that the Molot plant made to the design of automatic weapons to convert them to the category of civilian weapons are patented:

automatic fire is excluded by cutting the auto-sear with welding its axis and cutting the tooth for self-timer on the shutter frame, while the self-timer window is left unchanged;
eliminates the use of original stores from AKM and AK-47 by changing the geometry of the latch and milling cracker boxes;
the external butt screw is welded and punching is done on the muzzle.
on the carbine, the trigger mechanism from the VPO-205 gun is used to avoid sagging the bolt on the trigger in the forward position;
installed beveled DTK, welded to the front sight block.

The declared maximum dispersion diameter at a distance of 100 m - 50 mm. Carbines exceeding this limit are rejected.

Quote: PTS-m

Without any supervision from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, etc.

It is a bad idea...

[hartlend]

A bold conclusion and not very logical. AKMs are needed in local conflicts in third countries, for example, in Syria. And about selling to the "people" - as always, the "people" will not be the people at all. From the "developed" countries I can remember Switzerland, where you can have automatic weapons. Even in the liberal USA and Canada in this respect, there is no such thing.

If you mean small arms, a bullet will not give up its place for a long time, and such damaging elements as a shock wave and all kinds of radiation have long been present in some types of weapons.

[Ze Kot]

From the running line on RBC: "Concern" Kalashnikov "sued the use of the trademark" AK-47 "from a relative of the designer."

[hartlend]

It would be better to sue the states. A relative is easier.

[da Vinci]

They would have done something really advanced, and the current with AK 12 has been marking for 4 years. Continuous PR.
