Why Only Ukraine Special Forces Use This Strange Rifle



Imagine if you could make your weapon half the size while doubling its max effective range. This is the promise of a bullpup rifle …

  1. Convection doesn't need to be liquid. Air convection is a very common cooling method. Possibly the vents and if they have some fins or fluting of some type would be this "feature". Its a pretty cool gun really. The thing both sides seem to need in the war is optics. Both sides seem to mostly be running around with iron sights.

  2. Ukraine also makes a licensed copy of IWI tavor called Fort 221 in 5.45 and uses AK 74 mags. Seems to be many different small arms in use with AK 74 being more prevalent. I wonder what they will settle on if they win

  3. Stop with the old bs about the Azov. Yes, there was a controversy at the start, when the battalion just formed. Regardless of their reputation at the time they formed when the country needed them the most and became heroes who defended our land. Bravely, against all odds. It's so easy to judge when your country isn't being invaded, additionally considering that the army at the time was nearly in ruins by the hands of pro-russian lobbists. But in the current time, the battalion matured and there is no more controversy. The "neo-nazi" bs is a russian propaganda that was created as an artificial reason to start the war.

    Surviving the Mariupol defence, sacrificing their lives and health to protect civilians, never giving up the order or retreating, surviving the russian tortures in captivity, returning to Ukraine and wanting to continue to defend their country – should at least be enough of a reason to learn more about them, instead of reading the old flashy articles.

    In this video the points about the Azov seems to be made to "sting". You bring up the "controversy" and "reputation" a few times for at most a second and then immediately change topic. Without any context on why. At least explain your point or don't bring it up in this format at the first place.

    Not trying to be toxic, I just hope my prospective is understandable.

  4. Top to bottom, the country is TOTALLY RANSACKED BY CORRUPTION. 😂😂😂 BTW, Azov is NOT controversial. Just plain regular NAZI. 😁😁😁😡😡😡

  5. Convection is highly important for guns. Because convection is relevant for the surface area, Malyak can be good for heat management. the lifetime of the barrel is linked to the temperature, but there are more of mechanical wear of course. With good thermals gun are more reliable, accurate and shooters can see much better because heat forms "heat waves" wich distort view thru scope or metals. Easy example for convection heat radiator in hause, there are Convection and radiant heat, but convection is significantly more effective.

  6. In appearance, this weapon reminds me of the current variant of the Steyr AUG used by the Australian Armed Forces. In Oz military parlance, I think it's called the F-88. But it differs significantly. Not sure which one I'd rather use. Actually yes I am. The F-88 for sure.

  7. it's a shit design. the mag is too close to the pistol grip. this is worsened by the fact that unlike ar mags, you have to rock ak mags in, which leaves even less room.

  8. That serb were lied (Sako TRG that he lied he bought from Ukrainians were take off him and tracked . It wasimported to russia and civilian in Gun store in Moscow bought it ). Russians still claims that ukrainians sell them the weapon.By the way any civilian were be able to buy "malyuk" before the war for about $3500-4500. Malyuk were chosen as main SOF assault rifle before the full scale invasion, but when it began all stocks of malyuk were distributed to soldiers

  9. Strictly speaking, convection is just heat transfer via fluid flow, which could include, for example, (relatively) cool gas flowing past a hot metal plate and "sucking" heat out as it leaves the system.
