This is coolbert:
Avtomat Kalashnikov as issued to the common Ukrainian soldier effective, reliable and adequate.
Ukrainian special operations elite units however prefer their own indigenous firearm.
From "THE WAR ZONE" BY JOSEPH TREVITHICK MARCH 11, 2022 and thanks to same.
"Foreign weapons may be getting most of the attention, but the domestically-designed Malyuk is seeing major use by [Ukrainian] elite units, among others."
"The conflict in Ukraine is rapidly becoming a showcase of sorts for foreign infantry weapons, especially various shoulder-fired anti-aircraft and anti-armor systems, as you can read more about here. Subsequent discussions about these military aid shipments have largely overshadowed Ukrainian forces' use of domestically developed weapons, many of which are relatively obscure outside of the country. This includes a rifle known commonly as the Malyuk, a so-called 'bullpup' design that is being heavily used by Ukrainian special operations forces units, among others."
Read previous blog entry the advantages and disadvantages of the bullpup design assault rifle.
BUT MALYUK DOESN'T HAVE A BAYONET LUG!!
