Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin has said it is ready rifles “Accuracy” for serial production. In his Twitter, he denied the statement of the military expert Andrew Soustova that the ammunition for these weapons in Russia can not produce.
“Expert is a bit behind the times. In this rifle: 1) no foreign components 2) it is imposed the production of two types of ammunition,” – wrote Rogozin.
Earlier, the head of the Central research Institute of precision engineering (TSNIITOCHMASH) Dmitry Semizorov said that sniper rifles are “Precision”, ready for series deliveries.
Coustou, for his part, said the radio station “Moscow speaking” that the ammunition produced in Russia can not, and some of the components used in the production of foreign. “Once we prepare for serial production, we need to unwind with a substitution, because we have a problem with that. I don’t quite believe that this complex is ready for serial production”, – said the expert.
He noted that it would take about 8 months to launch these weapons. “It will be carried out, rather, on the capacity of the Kalashnikov as the most modern such enterprises”, – said Shoustov.
He explained that the system “Precision” is enough utkonosivka weapons to operate at long distances. Therefore, in the army, where snipers are working at a distance of 400-500 m, it is unlikely to be useful, and in the FSO and FSB would be appropriate.
