    Not "КS-7" - someone was mistaken. Was "КS-52" - (the experimental 1949), "КМ-52" on the basis of КС-30. The designer one - Lyulev L.V.

    "autoloader model" - "A3"

    Trigger discipline implies that you only put your finger on the trigger when you aim to fire at your target. How can you tell that the guy isn't aiming to fire? 8)

    I don't think you can.

    PS: Both Putin and Medvedev have trigger discipline. And Putin is always related. 8)




    PPS: Speaking of which, is any law-enforcement agency in Russia still using Stechkin?

    Or there could be a target range there. Or a million other possibilities. You don't really know one way or the other. It might be obvious to you, but not to everyone.

    Making an inflammatory statements without real proof is called trolling. Let us all abstain from such behaviour.

    Almost all armor in 2010 for Russian army is waist of money! Even the new T-95. The type of wars they will be fighting, it is totally useless! Georgia is not likely to repeat any time soon! The only real enemy for them is USA and China. They need all their money from their extremely small military budget to develop radars that can detect stealth, scramjet powered missiles that can shoot it down and good surveillance and communication systems! Even if I am flying old Mig-21 but have mounted best radar and missiles in the world....I will feel pretty good about myself! There are couple key technologies that Russia must master if they want to be competitive! Creating outdated weapons designed 20 years ago is still considered waist of desperately needed financial resources!

    I dont think you could be more clueless if you tried. So you think that Russia should abandon all of its latest projects such as the T-95 (which you dont even know anything about yet so criticising it is pretty stupid) and pump all that money into "scramjets" and "super radars" to counter the ultra high tech Chinese military or the Americans... uhuh.
    But why research scramjets and radars, why not pump all that money into cloaking devides, anti-matter ray-guns, and energy shields? Surely that is the best use of the procurement budget.

    Probably a satellite launcher rather than ICBM, could be a converted SS-19?

    *shrug* Meanwhile, on a lighter note. 8)

    The ingenious Russian military-industrial complex has developed a Terminator, a machine soldier of the future. A prototype model can be seen here with an exhaust pipe of his powerful diesel engine sticking out of his overcoat. 8)

While seeing such an act of vandalism can you imagine feelings of vets of WWII, who were ancientors of you and me, brits, americans, french, russians etc. and gave everything they had and even more for the Day of Sacret Victory. What a shame!
    having a crazy president like Misha is not sorprise watching that kind of vandalism, he is crazy and dangerous!
    RIP all Russian vets that gave their lives to defeat Fascism

    "АPS (56-А-126) is intended for the officers accepting direct participation in operations, and also for soldiers and sergeants of some special divisions." (с)
    It also is applied by them now...
    From arms - it is not lifted.

    Putin shot, if I am not mistaken, on shooting range GRU.
