Rostec will show the Chukavin sniper rifle (SHF) in the Middle East for the first time. This is reported by the state corporation.

It is noted that the microwave "is designed to defeat the most important targets on the battlefield, including those located outside the effective fire range of automatic small arms."

“The design of the rifle was developed taking into account modern requirements for the ergonomics of weapons of this class, which allows taking into account the individual characteristics of shooters, as well as the possibility of using a wide range of combat equipment,” Rostec assures.

In addition, during the exhibition of the international arms exhibition International Defense Exhibition & Conference (IDEX) 2023, which will be held in Abu Dhabi (UAE) from February 20 to 24, the Russian state corporation will show the Izdeliye 305E guided missile, the Tablet-A complex and a small-sized jet flamethrower MPO-A.

Also during the exhibition will be presented, in particular, a 30-mm high-explosive fragmentation incendiary projectile - ammunition ZUOF23, which "many times exceeds the efficiency of a regular shot and is a qualitative step in the development of such projectiles through the use of remote controlled detonation."

In February, Rostec spoke about the development of guided munitions with almost 100% hit accuracy.
