The airborne Raytheon commando appeared, and the Raytheon commando held a domestic 8.6 mm high-precision sniper rifle, which made people shine. Judging from the gun type, the 8.6mm high-precision sniper rifle installed this time is similar to the domestic LR35 7.62mm high-precision sniper rifle, which may be the latter's 8.6mm caliber.
The outside world believes that this move shows that domestic sniper rifles have achieved modular development, which is also the latest development trend of modern sniper rifles. Through modular development, domestic sniper rifles can further enhance the combat capability of our army snipers and adapt to more complex battlefield environment.
The modern battlefield is becoming increasingly complex, with both traditional military combat tasks and a large number of non-traditional threats. In such a battlefield environment, one type or caliber of sniper rifle can no longer meet the needs of the troops. The development of various types of sniper rifles will increase the development cost, which is also very unfavorable to the logistics support of the troops. In this case, the modularization of sniper rifle has become a development trend.
Modularization of sniper rifle means that a sniper rifle can be replaced with barrels of different calibers and lengths, and shooters can perform different combat tasks through this conversion in wartime. Structurally speaking, the sniper rifle is also relatively modular. Sniper rifle adopts floating barrel design, and the barrel does not contact with other parts, which prevents external force from being transmitted to the barrel, reduces vibration and displacement, and improves shooting accuracy. Therefore, the caliber conversion can be completed only by replacing the barrel and corresponding parts. Take the American Remington MSR sniper rifle as an example. The whole gun is divided into upper and lower parts. Magazine seat, launching base and stock constitute a basic module. The receiver is installed on this module, and then the floating bucket is installed. On this receiver. If you want to change the caliber, just change the barrel, gun face and magazine, and you can switch different calibers. Convenient and quick, and the replacement process hardly needs any tools.
The main sniper rifle of our army is LR4 7.62mm high-precision sniper rifle and its improved version-LR4A. From the practical application experience at home and abroad, the 7.62 mm high-precision sniper rifle has good accuracy and lethality in the distance of 800 meters, but when the shooting distance exceeds 1000 meters, the combat effectiveness will drop rapidly. On the other hand, the 12.7mm high-precision sniper rifle is bulky, heavy and expensive, so it is difficult to deploy troops in large quantities. In this way, a high-precision sniper rifle is needed as a transition between the two to fill this gap in firepower. This is an 8.6 mm sniper rifle. ?
The range and power of 8.6 mm sniper rifle is obviously greater than that of 7.62 mm sniper rifle, but its volume and weight are smaller than that of 12.7 mm sniper rifle. Therefore, the 8.6 mm sniper rifle has become a development hotspot in the new century. Therefore, our army also requires the development of a new generation of 8.6 mm sniper rifles. Sniper rifle fills the fire gap of sniper combat system. On the other hand, the LR4 sniper rifle itself also needs to be upgraded. Its shooting accuracy is 1MOA, while the new generation of foreign sniper rifles has dropped to SUB? MOA, so we need another submarine? MOA class 7.62mm sniper rifle.
In order to simplify the weapon model, reduce the development cost and reduce the difficulty of logistics support, we also adopted the idea of modular development in the development of a new generation of sniper rifles. According to relevant exhibits, LR35 sniper rifle has two models, namely 7.62mm caliber and 8.6mm caliber. Shooter can change barrels with different calibers and lengths as needed. This is the same as a new generation of foreign sniper rifles. LR35 sniper rifle also uses adjustable stock, which is the first time among domestic sniper rifles. Its stock is not a whole, but a frame structure, which is a typical feature of adjustable stock. The shooter can adjust the butt of the gun according to his body shape to achieve the best shooting state.
Generally speaking, the new generation of domestic sniper rifles has achieved modular and serial development, effectively improving the combat capability of our army snipers and better adapting to the requirements of the future battlefield.
