Kalashnikov to Start Production of Upgraded 7.62mm AK-308 Assault Rifle After Qualification Tests
Specialists from the Design and Technology Center (DTC) of Kalashnikov Concern JSC have improved the 7.62mm AK-308 assault rifle of the 2018 model. Production of the upgraded AK-308 of the 2025 model will begin after the product passes qualification tests.
Initially, the AK-308 was developed on the basis of the AK-12 of the 2018 model for delivery to countries whose armies use the 7.62x51 NATO (.308 Win) cartridge as the main ammunition for infantry small arms. However, when the AK-12 was used in a special operation, significant changes were made to its design. Therefore, on an initiative basis, the employees of the Kalashnikov DTC unified the designs of circuit solutions in the AK-308.
