Although the Kalashnikov rifle “AK-47” and its versions are the most globally recognized among Russian weapons, there are other assault weapons that use special, highly efficient ammunition, such as the “SR-2M” submachine gun. The Russian site “Rosoboronexport” provided information about this weapon, which can be effectively used against individuals from a distance of 200 meters and against light vehicles from a range of 100 meters.
Despite using ammunition with the same diameter as regular pistols (9 mm), the length of its bullets is greater, granting it a longer range and more power compared to pistols, in addition to a high rate of fire. The site pointed out that the most notable feature of this Russian weapon is its light weight and small size, especially when folded, allowing undercover security personnel to easily conceal it during special operations.
The design of the Russian submachine gun includes a front and rear sight system, with the possibility of adding an additional aiming system via a designated spot on the top. The ammunition magazine is designed with two rows to reduce its length, which can be adjusted to conceal it during covert missions when necessary.
According to the site, the bullets used by this submachine gun can penetrate the protective gear worn by soldiers from a distance of 100 meters and can also be used against vehicles from a distance of 200 meters.
