The RPK-74 is a squad automatic weapon developed from the Kalashnikov platform and designed for sustained automatic fire. It uses the 5.45×39 mm cartridge, resulting in reduced recoil and improved control during burst fire.

The extended barrel and reinforced construction provide enhanced accuracy and stability during prolonged engagements. The RPK-74 can utilize high-capacity drum magazines, significantly increasing the squad’s firepower. It retains the reliability of the Kalashnikov family and performs effectively in harsh field conditions.

In the simulator, the RPK-74 is recreated with realistic barrel-heating behavior, burst patterns, and recoil dynamics. This enables operators to practice weapon stabilization, suppressive fire techniques, and efficient handling of various magazine types.
