The Chinese media highly appreciated the new AK-12 assault rifle, which entered service with the Russian army. "Everyone is talking about hypersonic missiles, but few people remember that Russian infantrymen have an AK-12 assault rifle. And this is a significant update, " writes Sohu.

The new machine gun is a full-fledged update of the Russian small arms line, a noticeable step forward both in the field of technology and in terms of ergonomics. The AK-12 received a pistol grip, an adjustable buttstock and Picatinny bars for installing additional equipment.

It is also important that the machine has many options - including a 5. 56x45 mm cartridge of the NATO standard. This makes it possible not only to use captured ammunition in combat, but also to supply weapons to countries where AK has not been used before.

The AK-12 is constantly being improved, including taking into account the experience gained during its combat use in Syria. And the fact that the machine is supplied to both ordinary motorized rifle units and special forces, speaks of its versatility.

It is also important that the new AK has become noticeably more accurate. In the classic AK-74, the emphasis was placed on reliability, now accuracy of shooting has also joined it.
