ALPHA VIMPEL DOLPHIN SPETSNAZ

APS, Underwater Assault Rifle


APS Underwater Assault Rifle is intended for combat actions and self-defence from dangerous sea predators. It can be installed on special underwater vehicles and used against mini submarines. The rifle ensures delivery of aimed fire from any position of the swimmer including firing on the move. Additionally, the rifle can be successfully used for self-defence on the ground.
The rifle is loaded with MPS cartridge to hit underwater targets from the above-water position and vice versa.
At limit ranges in water the rifle ensures defeat of an enemy wearing a water suit with porolone padding and protected with a 5 mm thick organic glass.
The limit ranges of effective fire in water at different depths essentially exceed the visibility limits in most transparent waters of the world ocean.
