According to Krivoruchko, the new weapon station is able to perform the most complex tasks in different conditions, including during equipment’s movement over rough terrain.

The Russia Arms Expo is scheduled to take place on September 9-12, in the city of Nizhny Tagil.

At least 10 countries, including South Korea, Italy, France and Turkey, will be exhibiting at RAE-2015.
