HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
The SVU was developed as a response to the specific needs of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs during the First Chechen War. Originally intended to be a minor update to the SVD, the project quickly evolved as the designers recognized the need for a completely redesigned weapon to suit modern tactical requirements. The result is the SVU, a versatile, compact sniper rifle that can still deliver the same high-level performance as its predecessor, the SVD, while offering enhanced mobility and ease of operation.
