AK-74

NOTE: This article is about AK-74s in the main ArmA games. For East German AK-74s in ArmA 3's Global Mobilization - Cold War Germany Creator DLC, see AK-74 (Global Mobilization).

The AK-74 is a 5.45 mm assault rifle that has been featured in all of the ArmA games to date, beginning with ArmA: Cold War Assault and all the way to ARMA Reforger.

ArmA: Cold War Assault

«

The AK-74 assault rifle was manufactured in 1979 by Avtomat Kalashnikova, to replace the aging AK-47. The Kalashnikov sub-machineguns are well known for their reliability. The AK-74 was designed for army personnel and law and order forces. Weapon Description

The AK-74 is used by both Soviet military forces and Nogovan Partisans in ArmA: Cold War Assault.

Overview

The AK-74 is a selective fire assault rifle that is chambered to fire the ubiquitous 5.45×39 mm round.

It loads from 30-round plastic magazines, is capable of attaining a fire rate of up to 650 rounds per minute, and has a muzzle velocity of 900 m/s. The AK-74 is accurate at distances of up to 400 metres.

Replacing the long-outdated AK-47, the AK-74 is the latest model in the Kalashnikov assault rifle family. It is primarily used by the Soviet Armed Forces, though stocks of AK-74s have also fallen into the hands of anti-Soviet resistance groups.

Unlike the older AK-47, the AK-74 fires the smaller but lighter 5.45 mm round. Though it has reduced stopping power compared to the AK-47's 7.62 mm, the AK-74 makes up for it by being far more accurate at distances of beyond 250 metres. In addition, it has much less recoil which renders it easier to control when firing on full auto.

In some respects, the AK-74 is slightly superior to its American counterpart in close quarters. Whereas the M16A2 is limited to a 3-round burst fire mode only, the AK-74 has access to all three modes (semi-auto, burst, full auto) and does not leave its user vulnerable should they miss their initial shots.

The AK-74 GL is a modified variant of the baseline AK-74 rifle fitted with an underbarrel 40 mm grenade launcher.

The AK-74's GP-25 grenade launcher is accurate at distances of up to 250 metres, and can launch either high-explosive (HE) or flare rounds. There are no other differences with regards to performance or functionality.

AK-74 SU

«

The version was developed from the AK-74, but radically differs from it in terms of the design of separate units and combat characteristics. The AK-74 SU features a short barrel, lesser muzzle velocity, high rate of fire, but more lower consistency of fire, compared to thet of AK-74. The AK-74 SU is intended for special subunits of airborne troops, combat engineers and drivers of combat vehicles. Weapon Description

The AK-74 SU is a carbine variant of the baseline AK-74 rifle. It is the primary weapon of Soviet ground vehicle and aircraft crewmen along with some Spetsnaz operatives.

Aside from its shorter barrel, it is barely any different (statistically) to regular AK-74s as it fires the same 5.45 mm round as its parent.

The main difference is that it is much less accurate when firing on burst. However, this is barely noticeable in close quarters and will not become apparent unless the user intends to attack targets standing 200 metres or more away from their position.

Trivia

The real-world AK-74, together with all of its variants, does not actually have the ability to make use of a three-round burst fire mode. They exclusively use only two firing modes: semi-automatic, and fully-automatic. Oddly enough, the AK-74 seems to use the same model as the AK-47 with only slight adjustments made to the AK-74's stock, muzzle brake and magazine (both weapons are mechanically different in real-life). The in-game AK-74 features a more angled gas tube, has an angled stock instead of straight (exactly like the AK-47), and also features a visibly more curved magazine. This erroneous appearance can be somewhat attributed to the fact that Soviet military forces were originally intended to wield AK-47s in lieu of the AK-74 (as seen in several early pre-release versions of the game) before finally being patched to use the appearance of the AK-74 in beta versions starting with Patch 0.36 (then-known as Operation Flashpoint DEMO). However, the developers did not actually create a new model specifically for the AK-74, but rather used the existing AK-47 with only a different texture applied to the magazine (depicting plastic wood-imitation, instead of black metallic) along with the distinctive muzzle brake/flash hider added at the barrel end (which essentially turns it into a hybrid of the AK-47 and AK-74). The so-called "AK-74 SU" on the other hand, retained the ribbed steel magazine rather than plastic which was used exclusively for 7.62 mm ammunition despite the fact that the weapon itself is chambered to fire 5.45 mm. This is because the "AK-74 SU" is actually not modelled after real AKS-74U carbines but is actually modelled after a fictional airsoft replica known as the "AK Beta Spetsnaz", which would explain the origins of its unusual all-out silver finish as well as a non-standard handguard (featuring only a single cooling slot) combined with a side-folding stock from Czech-made vz. 58 assault rifles. The fact that the "AK-74 SU" is modelled after a fictional replica rather than a real AK-74 may be explained by the artists obviously thinking that the replica represented a real Soviet-era AKS-74U carbine and thus, decided to create the in-game model based on it. The information below details unused, pre-release or removed content. The AK-74 originally used a completely different set of sounds and featured a distinctive, blunt firing sound effect. The original sounds were used in all of the game's versions - including both the baseline Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis and Codemasters' unofficial Red Hammer addon, up until the addition of the Operation Flashpoint: Resistance expansion pack. Because Resistance was treated as a separate expansion rather than being integrated into the base game as in the current version of Cold War Assault (pre-Patch 1.99), it was still possible to hear the original AK-74's firing sounds. For obvious reasons, this is no longer possible in the official re-release version of CWA.

The AK-74 is the successor to the famous AK-47, resizing its caliber to 5.45mm, probably as reaction to the ubiquitous 5.56mm NATO. The most visible modification is the muzzle brake.

The AK-74 is a 5.45 mm assault rifle used exclusively by the SLA in ArmA: Armed Assault.

The AK-74 returns from Cold War Assault and is the service weapon of all SLA infantry. It continues to load from 30-round plastic magazines and can achieve a fire rate of up to 600 RPM. The AK-74 is not available in any variants fitted with optical sights or muzzle attachments.

The AK-74 is a general-purpose weapon that is accurate out to a range of approximately 400-500 metres.

However, because the baseline weapon lacks optical sights and has hard-to-use tangential ironsights, it can be somewhat difficult to reliably land shots at these distances. Which in practice, limits its actual effective range to just 300-350 metres or less.

The AK-74 + GP-25 is a 5.45 mm assault rifle used exclusively by the SLA in ArmA: Armed Assault.

The AK-74 + GP-25 is simply a modified AK-74 that has been fitted with an underbarrel grenade launcher.

The underbarrel GP-25 can load either 40 mm high-explosive (HE) or illumination flare rounds. Its 40 mm grenades are not interchangeable with those used by the M4 carbine or the M16A4's M203 (and vice versa).

The AKS-74 PSO is a 5.45 mm assault rifle used exclusively by the SLA in ArmA: Armed Assault.

The AKS-74 PSO is a slightly modified variant of the baseline rifle. Aesthetically, it uses a metallic stock rather than a fixed wooden one.

The AKS-74 PSO's primary advantage lies in its telescopic sight, which is always attached to it by default. The scope effectively extends its range to just over 400 metres and makes aiming at those distances easier.

However, it is slightly more cumbersome to wield, and remains statistically identical to its parent weapon when it comes to accuracy, fire rate and recoil.

The AKS-74U is a personal defense weapon for vehicles and helicopter crews, and for the special operations forces, who require a compact and relatively powerful weapon in a single package. While the AKS-74U is the size a typical submachine gun, it has the advantage of using the standard assault rifle ammunition and magazines. Library Description

The AK-74 is a 5.45 mm assault rifle used by several BLUFOR, REDFOR and INDFOR factions in ArmA 2.

Returning from Armed Assault, the AK-74 has largely remained unchanged aside from the addition of a few more variants.

Once again, it still loads from 30-round plastic magazines and has an identical rate of fire. The AK-74 is now available in a variety of models with various optical sights and muzzle attachments fitted.

Compared to its antiquated counterpart, the AK-74 fires a smaller and slightly less powerful round but is lighter to carry and is more accurate at longer ranges.

However, when compared to the M16A4 and Mk16 rifles, the AK-74 is vastly inferior in terms of accuracy. It has almost 25% increased dispersion against targets located beyond ~ 460 metres, making the AK-74 almost as inaccurate as carbines but with none of the advantages of the latter.

This is an asset which partially requires the Operation Arrowhead expansion pack.

The underbarrel GP-25 can load a variety of 40 mm high-explosive (HE), smoke or flare grenades. Note that its 40 mm grenades are not interchangeable with those used by the M4A1/M16A4's M203, nor those of the EGLM used by the SCAR series of assault/battle rifles (and vice versa).

There is also an additional variant of the AK-74 GP-25 that has a Kobra collimator sight mounted on top by default, and is designated as the AK-74 GP-25 Kobra. It was added with the release of the Operation Arrowhead expansion.

The AKS-74 is a 5.45 mm assault rifle used by several BLUFOR, REDFOR and INDFOR factions in ArmA 2.

The AKS-74 is a modified variant of the baseline rifle that has a folding stock. It is virtually identical to the baseline rifle aside from the stock. The AKS-74 is notable for being the only variant of the AK-74 that has the most options when it comes to accessories.

These choices range from the Kobra collimator to the PSO-1 telescopic sight, and the NSPU night vision sight. However unlike with the AKS-74U, there are no variants of the AKS-74 that have suppressors attached by default.

There is also an additional variant that has a GOSHAWK thermal scope mounted on top, and is designated as the AKS-74 GOSHAWK. It was added with the release of the Operation Arrowhead expansion.

The AKS-74U is a 5.45 mm carbine used by several BLUFOR, REDFOR and INDFOR factions in ArmA 2.

The AKS-74U is a carbine variant of the baseline weapon. Normally carried by tank crews, pilots and team leaders, it is virtually identical in all other aspects aside from having a smaller effective range compared to its rifle counterpart due to its shorter barrel (and being slightly less accurate as a result).

There is also an additional variant of the AKS-74U that has a Kobra optic mounted on top and a suppressor attached to the muzzle. This specific variant is designated as the AKS-74UN Kobra and is exclusively used by the Takistani Army's elite troops.

This variant is also chambered to fire the same 5.45×39 mm round but uses special subsonic ammunition that can only be loaded by the AKS-74UN (the magazines themselves are not interchangeable).

The AKS-74U is basically a shortened AK-74, which enabled significant production savings. Like the AK-74, this variant is also chambered in 5.45x39 mm, but its compact dimensions make it suitable for special forces, vehicle crews, police patrols, etcetera. However, the lower muzzle velocity makes the AKS-74U effective up to around 400 meters only. Field Manual

The AKS-74U is used by several BLUFOR, REDFOR and INDFOR factions in ArmA 3. It was added with the release of the Apex DLC.

Overview

This is a premium asset that requires ownership of the Apex expansion pack.

Favoured by both criminals and insurgents alike, the AKS-74U continues to remain as a compact and reliable carbine in ArmA 3.

It still loads from 30-round plastic magazines but now has a fire rate that can reach up to 705 RPM. The AKS-74U has a muzzle velocity of 735 m/s but unlike its ArmA 2 counterpart, the ArmA 3 AKS-74U lacks the ability to mount accessories and cannot be fitted with muzzle attachments.

The AKS-74U is best suited for close quarters combat thanks to its compact dimensions, light weight and minimal inertia penality. It has a maximum zeroing range of 600 metres but given its shortened barrel length and increased dispersion, the AKS-74U is mostly useless for targets beyond 300 metres.

Due to its low muzzle velocity and below average fire rate (only the MXC's fire rate is less than that of the AKS-74U's), the AKS-74U is quite a niche carbine that has too few upsides and plenty of disadvantages. Unless there are no alternatives to be had, the AKS-74U should always be discarded in favour of better carbines in its class.

Ammunition

Base damage value	Aerodynamic friction	Initial velocity (m/s)	Penetration depth (mm)

The AKS-74U supports four types of magazines. They all have identical weights of 8 "mass" apiece:

5.45 mm 30Rnd Reload Tracer (Yellow) Mag

30-round plastic magazine. The last four rounds will always consist of yellow tracers.

5.45 mm 30Rnd Reload Tracer (Green) Mag

Identical to regular 30-rounders, but the last four tracers are coloured in green instead.

5.45 mm 30Rnd Tracer (Yellow) Mag

Contains 30 rounds worth of visible yellow tracers.

5.45 mm 30Rnd Tracer (Green) Mag

Identical to yellow tracer magazines but consists of 30 green-coloured tracers instead.

---

Trivia

• It is one of the few weapons in ArmA 3 that uses its real-world manufacturer name.
• Prior to the release of the Tac-Ops DLC, the AKS-74U was exclusively portrayed as a Syndikat-only weapon. It was later changed with the release of the DLC's first scenario, Beyond Hope, which showed the weapon in use by Altian government loyalists (the predecessors of the modern-day FIA).
  • The Old Man mini-campaign/scenario also depicts Tanoan Gendarmerie officers wielding the AKS-74U, though only some tactical units utilise it in lieu of the Protector SMG.

The AK-74 is used by both Soviet military forces and FIA guerillas in ARMA Reforger.

Overview

This section is a stub. You can help Armed Assault Wiki by expanding it.

Reforger's AK-74 remains as a selective-fire assault rifle chambered for the 5.45×39 mm cartridge.

Unlike ArmA 3's AKS-74U carbine, Reforger's AK-74 has a fire rate of 650 RPM and a muzzle velocity of 890 m/s. It still cannot be fitted with optical sights nor muzzle suppressors, though the user can now opt to mount the GP-25 grenade launcher onto the underbarrel slot.

It can share its magazines with the RPK-74 light support weapon or alternately feed from the latter's unique 45-round curved magazines.

The weapon's zeroing can be manually set starting at a minimum of 100 m up to a maximum of 1,000 m, with adjustments being made in increments/decrements of 100 m. By default, the AK-74 will always use a zeroing of 440 m.

The AK-74 is able to load up to four types of magazines. Its default 30-rounder magazines are fully interchangeable with the RPK-74 light support weapon (and vice versa with the latter's 45-round curved magazines):

5.45×39mm 30rnd AK Mag

Standard 30-round plastic magazine loaded with a mix of 7N6 ball and 7T3 tracer ammunition (with a 25/5 split). Only the last five rounds of the magazine actually consist of tracers.

It has a weight of 0.230 kg and occupies 1x1 inventory slots with a volume of 200 cm3.

5.45×39mm 30rnd AK Tracer Mag

Tracer magazine loaded with 7T3 ammunition. All thirty rounds of the magazine will comprise of visible tracers.

It shares the same weight, inventory slot layout, and volume space requirements of the AK-74's stock 30-round magazines.

5.45×39mm 45rnd RPK-74 Mag

45-round curved magazine intended for use on the RPK-74. It features a mixed load that combines both 7N6 and 7T3 ammunition.

Every fifth round fired consists of a visible tracer. However, the last six rounds of the magazine will consist entirely of visible tracers.

It has a weight of 0.300 kg, occupies 1x1 inventory slots, and has a volume of 300 cm3.

5.45×39mm 45rnd RPK-74 Tracer Mag

Dedicated tracer magazine. All loaded rounds comprise of 7T3 tracers.

It weighs the same as the standard mixed load 45-rounder magazine.
