The SVD is a 7.62 mm sniper rifle used by several REDFOR and INDFOR factions in ArmA 3. It was added with the release of the Global Mobilization - Cold War Germany Creator DLC.
Overview[]
- This section is a stub. You can help Armed Assault Wiki by expanding it.
The SVD is a semi-automatic, gas-operated sniper/marksman rifle with a short-stroke gas-piston system. It is chambered to fire the 7.62×54 mmR round.
It loads exclusively from 10-round curved magazines, and can attain a fire rate of up to 600 rounds per minute with a muzzle velocity of 715 m/s.
The SVD's side mount allows for all Dovetail-compatible optics to be mounted. The user can also attach a dedicated 7.62 mm sound suppressor or a bayonet onto the muzzle. However, it should be noted that it is not possible to have both attachments mounted at the same time.
Ironsights[]
The SVD's ironsights can be manually zeroed starting at a minimum of 100 metres up to a maximum of 400 metres (100, 200, 300, 400). By default, it uses a zeroing of 200 metres.
If an optical sight with a zeroing limit greater than 400 metres is fitted, the SVD will permit a maximum zeroing of 1,000 metres.
Ammunition[]
| Round name | Base damage value | Aerodynamic friction | Initial velocity (m/s) | Penetration depth (mm) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7N1 | 12.76 | -0.0009043 | 830 | 14.94 |
| 7BZ3 | 13.26 | -0.000979 | 830 | 10.5825 |
| 7T2 | 10.76 | -0.000979 | 830 | 6.5985 |
The SVD supports three types of magazines. All of them share the same weight of 12 "mass" units:
7.62 mm 10Rnd SVD AP 7N1 Black Mag[]
Standard 10-round magazine loaded 7N1 armour-piercing ammunition. The bullets have a tiny spill radius of 0.2 metres upon impact.
Does not contain any visible tracer rounds.
7.62 mm 10Rnd SVD API 7BZ3 Black Mag[]
Armour-piercing incendiary ammunition. These bullets also retain a tiny spill radius of 0.2 metres upon contact with any hard surface.
This magazine also does not contain any visible tracers.
7.62 mm 10Rnd SVD Ball-T 7T2 Black Mag[]
Magazine with a mixed ball/tracer load of 9/1 rounds.
Note that only the last round of the magazine will emit a visible green tracer.
Trivia[]
- The SVD was not initially available upon Global Mobilization's release and was only added after Patch 1.1.[1]
- Prior to Update 1.5, it was not possible to attach anything other than bayonets and the PSO-1 (for optics). This was changed with the patch's release, granting it access to all Dovetail optics as well as the option to mount a suppressor.[2]
