MOSCOW, November 11. /TASS/. Russia’s Kalashnikov Group is showcasing its latest small arms and drones used in the special military operation for the first time at the International Collective Security Forum, the company’s press service told TASS.

"The Kalashnikov Group is exhibiting its latest developments in the segments of combat small arms, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and guided munitions, as well as equipment, at the International Collective Security Forum, which is taking place on November 10-11 in Moscow," the company said.

Official representatives of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) member states attending the event, as well as the exhibition visitors, are paying close attention to Kalashnikov’s weapons and military equipment, which have proven effective in combat operations.

The exhibits include the Kalashnikov AK-12K and the compact AK-12SK assault rifles, the 2023-model Kalashnikov AK-12, as well as compact versions of the 7.62-mm AK-15K and AK-15SK. The exhibition also features a full-size 5.56-mm AK-19, AK assault rifles from the 200 series, 7.62-mm SV-98, SVCh and SVD sniper rifles, as well as the 9-mm Kalashnikov PPK-20 submachine gun and a range of 9-mm Lebedev pistols.

In the unmanned aerial vehicle segment, the company is exhibiting the all-weather high-altitude reconnaissance drone SKAT 350 M, as well as optical navigation systems capable of operating under continuous electronic warfare (EW) jamming, in the absence of GPS signals, and under spoofing conditions.

The Triada-TKO company is presenting the Strelok combat gear at the forum. Military personnel from CSTO member states note its increased area of fragmentation protection--more than 135 square decimeters, its enhanced level of fragmentation resistance--at least 630 m/s--its ability to reliably protect areas where first aid is difficult to administer, as well as its ballistic protection against rifle armor-piercing rounds with a steel heat-treated core.
