interesting you talked about the HMMWV (Which I agree that by the time it reached the M1114 it was already uber under-powered). I was talking to an officer friend about the M2 brad by the time it reached the A3 how fragile the electronic system was. THAT SAID, I think upgrading the existing AKs74 and AK74 would have been a far superior move here. I'd say that our next parallel to the AK12 is the XM7/M7 project, which will be memed on this channel when it gets to reviewing that rifle.

2023-09-14 16:14:10 +0000 UTCThis is not dissimilar to what the US went through in the early days of GWOT. Russia just has 20 years of catch up to make due to it’s near complete economic collapse in the Boris Yeltsin years. The problems and subsequent evolution of the AK12 reminds me especially of the problems and subsequent evolution of the Humvee in Iraq. A good base product slowly ruined by the changing demands of the modern battlefield. Eventually this train has to lead Russia into a complete rework of the AK platform much like the new Serbian M19 rifle.
