hey, check out the translation of the video into English (THANKS TO Otacon237):
"Host: This box contains 4 different firearms: a battle rifle, and assault rifle, an grenade launcher, and a sniper rifle. The platform upon which the system is built is the well known Kalashnikov design: AKSU, although it is highly modernized.
Narrator: The Modular Assault Rifle System, Groza (Thunder), first appeared in the late '80s. Prior to this, our military did not produce any such weapons, not because it couldn't, but rather because they were simply not needed. All weapons were created with the intent for global warfare, so production was focused on pistols, submachineguns and rifles that were simple, reliable, and mass-produceable. The Kalashnikov family of rifles more than met these requirements. But times have changed. Within the soviet military, special units and divisions were being created. Although the missions assigned to them were greatly varied, Spetsnaz operatives lacked specialized weapons. Kalashnikovs were adequate, but not well suited to the task at hand. Clearly, something better was needed, but what? The foundation chosen for the new system was the AKSU, for it's compact size, although many changes were made to both the ergonomics and functions of the weapon. The grenade launcher was affixed to the rifle, and the new bullpup design, although not very well known at that time, made for a weapon that was lighter, more balanced, and allowed for better recoil control. The new concept rifle was first developed at the Tula Weapons Plant. As with most new weapons, it was designed to be used with an already established cartridge; in this case, the 5.45x39mm standard infantry round. Although this seemed adequate at first, later research showed that the decision wasn't the best one, especially in urban combat environments, common to Spetsnaz Operatives. The modular design allows for four weapons: the rifle itself is typically fitted with lighter, more compact 20 round magazines. It has iron sights for firing at distances up to 200 meters, a flip-up ladder sight for use with the grenade launcher, and a mount for optical sights. Another feature of this variant is the single trigger for firing both the rifle and the grenade launcher. The grenade launcher fires standard 40mm munitions, along with a new tear gas grenade called the Gvost (Nail).
Host: The weapon can be converted to a sniper rifle with relative ease, all one needs to do is affix the scope and the PBS (suppressor). But even with these additions, practical range is limited to about 200 meters.
Narrator: The Modular Assault Weapon, OC-14, has yet to be widely distributed, but it played a very important role in the development of new close combat fighting tactics. Prior to the Groza, Russia had no weapons with the Bullpup layout. Currently, such weapons are not uncommon, but the Groza is Russia's first attempt at a universal counter-terror weapons system. "

  • @PvMikhail , if you believe China has self criticism then you are so gravely mistaken. When your country:

    1) Has a forced sterilization and abortion program in which if you do not comply, you are beaten and then dragged by government agents to a clinic.

    2) Openly commit violence on the pacifistic Buddhist monks (and anyone else, might I add) who criticize their policy.

    3) Committed the atrocities of Tiananmen Square,

    need I say more? China literally says "fuck the world" whereas the United

  • @BabsControl are you mentally challenged? Where did I ever say, that I am Chinese? I HAVE ALREADY TOLD TO SELF-ALLEGED WEAPON-MASTER MORON THAT I AM HUNGARIAN BY FUCKING NATIONALITY. ahhhh you americans are really so stupid... un-fucking-beliveable

    I don't care what China does or not does. Even with that they have more credibility than US, because they don't want to encroach everywhere and control through media and NGOs what the people think. Chinese do their own shit in their own country.

  • @PvMikhail I meant your as in a general sense, referring to the Chinese. I saw your Hungarian comment. Do not get your panties in a wad over that, Sjanalom.

    But you are indeed seriously FUBAR if you believe China is at all credible. That is ridiculous.

  • @BabsControl sorry for the insults, man. I was just out of my mind. You know, I just hate it when people with 0 knowledge come talk shit like that mrsentry guy. Anger pointed at wrong person. I just heard your arguments too many times in mainstream media. You know... I wasn't always like that. US foreign policy, US backing bias in mainstream media and 5 years of experience on Youtube gave me a conclusion I told about american over-confidence and outright US supremacism.

  • @BabsControl it is not like I love China, I am rather neutral towards it. But my opinion stands, that China may (or may not) lead the world in 20 years in therms of economic output. This is an objective observation. This is what I usually tell to over-confident yankees to keep in mind. And to tell the truth, I didn't said China is credible... I said it is MORE CREDIBLE than US. I hate when SoS H. Clinton tries to influence the INTERNAL policies of my state, and in fact ANY state in the World.

  • @PvMikhail lol! Your lack of grammar kills me little inside ha ha! I'm a libertarian strictly a ronpaul supporter. It'd be wise of you for your country sake to not pick fights with Americans don't you know that we currently have a dangerous president with dangerous foreign policies... Hush hush now if someone were to blow the whistle on you and accuse you of being a terrorist you could be put on a hit list & be assassinated via drone just saying... Fact! America the leader of the free world!!!!!

  • @mrsentry08 In 20 years America will not lead anything. The base of real power nowadays is economy, where there are states far healthier than US. Maybe China will lead the World, free or not. Will it be better? Maybe. Will it be worse? Maybe. At least Chinese has some self-criticism and not so loud mouth. They also focus on education and at least they have an idea what happens in the World beyond their borders. Neither can be alleged about you guys, sorry, but these are facts. Again, you wanted.

  • good weapon to hunt snorks:D

  • @cyckarz the two weapons have different roles they are not comparable.

    For example if you want to penetrate something, the 9x39 is suits better than 5.45x39, thats for sure. The range and accuracy with silencer is enough, just like in the case of VSS Vintorez.

  • @PvMikhail Part II of II, I understand your views, but look at what China does to get there: They float their currency artificially (causing outsourcing nations' currency to fall) so that manufacturing is outsourced to them, which strengthens them economically. That, coupled with a below minimum wage/child workforce allows them to reap nearly 90% of the net revenue generated from the production. It works, but just for China. They have many problems however, one being their dystopian government.

  • @PvMikhail No worries moy droog, I'm more of an isolationist at times of peace when it comes to standings with foreign countries, but you do have to admit that when a threat arises, it's best to have a foothold on the problem. That being said, I am terrified of Iran getting nuclear weapons, especially since their government is headed by someone who was a part of the conservative Islamic revolution. It is because of this that it's important to have allies, and a "beachhead" of sorts. Part I of II

  • @mrsentry08 attack on grammar... ~yawn~

    I would like to point out your grammar mistakes in Hungarian or any other European languages, but you probably don't even speak/write correctly your own. "Ron Paul" is a proper noun, should be spelled with capital letters - just for one)

    America is the leader of the uneducated World... Shame, because with so much money and resources, I would have done something to help my countrymen to get proper knowledge... But your government wants you to stay this way.
