AN-94

History
The AN-94 was born out of the need to resolve complaints by Soviet troops about the AK-47. The AK-47 and its 7.62x39mm round were no doubt rugged and reliable, but were hard to control on full-auto. They needed a smaller, low recoil high velocity round. The AN-94 is chambered in the same 5.45x39mm M74 cartridge as the AK-74, and it utilizes a rotating bolt to lock the action. The AK-74M was the Russian's first rifle chambered in this new 5.45mm round. The Russians saw, however that even though the AK-74M was successful in reducing recoil, it was due to the round, not the mechanics, of the rifle. The Russians decided to hold a competition to find a successor for the AK-74 in the late 70's. Their primary requirement was to have a hit ratio of 1.5 to 2 times better than the AK-74M.

Modern Warfare: Mobilized
The AN-94 is featured as a common weapon weapon throughout the entire game. It has not been seen in use, but is available to pick-up frequently in the SAS missions.
