The Pentagon has placed a request for a batch of full-size models of some Soviet weapons for the Fort Benning military base.
“This proposal is currently unfunded, but funds are expected to be received for its implementation”, – the application says.
The Pentagon is interested in mock-ups of Kalashnikov grenade launchers, submachine guns and machine guns, Dragunov sniper rifle, as well as grenades that must be made of heavy-duty urethane to “withstand years of training”.
The agency’s request states that the products will be used for training purposes, including the development of “enemy weapon skills”.
