From Otvaga.

A modernized AN-94? It'd be interesting if the modernization is more than just a picattiny rail.

It's not simply the rail, Fab-Def buustock, new lower (ZID/Magpul), new fixed rail dustcover. Everything else should be the same.

it is already one of the most modern rifles in the world, and the focus of that upgrade is clearly the ergonomics.

buttstock, pistol grip and of course a picatinny rail.

"Admiral Essen"in Baltiysk. It's no Gorshkov class but I gotta say it looks pretty nice, glad they stuck with order for 6 vessels.

They need some radomes for all those antennas tho, i remember hating to clean/protect/paint antennas on our equipment i cant even imagine how much worse it is on open sea with all that salt and water.

6E4 watch


2250x1500

This watch seems made to be worn on the right arm...

Any military reason for that? (Or is it because Putin wears his watch on the right arm? )

Who is the manufacturer anyway?
I know that in the USSR, the official watch was the Komandirskiye.
Is this the new official manufacturer?

Watch Maker.

The knob is on the left side. Normally it's on the right so you dont have to twist your wrist around to work the dials.
