The F2000 modular system was developed by Fabrique Nationale Herstal and was first presented to the public in 2001, and the beginning of development dates back to the first half of the 1990s. The main features of the F2000 are, in addition to the now traditional bullpup design and modular design, the complete “double-sidedness” of the weapon, achieved not only by the location of the controls so that they can be reached with either hand, but also by the ejection spent cartridges not sideways, but forward, which allows you to shoot the rifle from any shoulder without the need for any changes in the mechanism of the weapon.
Currently, F2000 series weapons are being intensively promoted on the global arms market, but there has been no information about any serious purchases yet.



The basis of the system is assault rifle F2000. It is built according to a traditional automatic system with a gas drive and locking the barrel by turning the bolt. The bolt is also of a completely traditional design, with 7 lugs, and is locked behind the breech of the barrel. Key Feature mechanism - in the absence of a traditional ejector, which throws the spent cartridge outside receiver. Instead, on the breech of the barrel there is a swinging plastic part - a guide, and in the body of the weapon to the right of the barrel there is a tubular channel for removing the cartridges with their subsequent ejection from the weapon in the area of ​​​​the muzzle of the barrel.
After the shot, the bolt, holding the spent cartridge case on its mirror with the help of an extractor tooth, moves back. At the same time, the plastic guide for spent cartridges turns back, blocking the path of the empty cartridge back into the chamber. On the way forward, the lower protrusions of the bolt pick up a new cartridge from the magazine, and the spent cartridge case, still held on the jam mirror by the extractor, runs over the swinging guide and is retracted to the right of the bore line, into the cartridge removal tube. In this case, when the bolt moves forward, the guide rotates, moving the bottom of the spent cartridge case away from the bolt and freeing up space for the new cartridge on the bolt mirror and the path into the chamber. The spent cartridges are removed from the tube through the hole in the front of the weapon forward, under their own weight or by displacing them with the next cartridges. The special design of the entrance to the cartridge ejection tube prevents cartridges from falling back into the receiver.



Fire modes - single shots and automatic. The fire mode selector is located inside the trigger guard, and the safety is located directly below it. The F2000 body is made of polymer in a bullpup design. The charging handle is on the left side of the weapon.
The F2000 handguard is also made of plastic and is easily removable. Instead, the following can be installed: a handguard with a built-in laser designator; handguard with built-in flashlight; ; under-barrel “non-lethal” module XM303, which fires capsules with paint or tear gas using compressed gas stored in a small cylinder. In addition, in the future it is possible to install other modules developed in accordance with the requirements of a specific customer.

On top surface The F2000 body has a Picatinny rail for installation sighting devices. The F2000 comes standard with optical sight with a 1.6X magnification and a wide field of view, however, it can be quickly replaced with any other sight (including night sight) that has the appropriate mounts. On the upper surface of the standard optical sight there are open reserve front and rear sights.



Instead of a sight, the F2000 can be equipped with a special computerized fire control module, which includes a laser range finder and a ballistic computer. Based on data on the range to the target obtained using a laser rangefinder, the computer provides data for aiming the weapon according to the elevation angle in the field of view of the sight, while using the simplest indication system of two LEDs - red and green. The shooter, changing the position of the weapon in the vertical plane, monitors the LEDs: red is on - you need to continue aiming vertically, green is on - the barrel has been given the elevation required for shooting and you can shoot at the target. The grenade launcher is aimed in azimuth (in the horizontal plane) in the usual way, according to the marks of the optical sight. Such a system significantly increases the accuracy of firing 40 mm grenades at medium and long ranges, while the guidance module has a relatively simple design and, as a result, high reliability at a reasonable price.

FN F2000 is a Belgian assault rifle developed by Fabrique Nationale de Herstal. The FN F2000 was first introduced in 2001. This weapon is designed to perform combat missions in modern local military conflicts. Developed in the late 90s, mass-produced since 2001-2002.

The F2000 automatic system operates by removing powder gases; the barrel is locked by turning the bolt. Layout - bullpup. Thanks to the patented frontal extraction scheme for spent cartridges (the cartridges fall out almost at the muzzle), the main problem of weapons of this type is solved - the impossibility of using the weapon by a left-handed shooter due to spent cartridges getting into the face. Moreover, the weapon can be used by both left- and right-handed people without modifications, unlike the Steyr AUG or FAMAS. Location of the double-sided fuse/fire mode selector under trigger guard also ensures the “two-way” nature of the system. IN this moment A modification for a special under-barrel shotgun is being developed.

Polymers are used as body materials, the forend is plastic, easily removable, in place of which various additional modules: laser pointer, flashlight, 40-mm grenade launcher, “non-lethal” M303 module, designed to fire capsules containing paint or tear gas. In the future, upon customer request, it is possible to install other modules.

The standard sight is a 1.6X optical sight with a wide field of view. It can be quickly replaced with any other sight that has the appropriate mounts, for example, a special computerized fire control module. This module includes a laser rangefinder and a ballistic computer that sets the aiming mark of the sight both for firing from the machine gun itself and from an under-barrel grenade launcher (if installed), based on data on the range to the target. With such a module, F2000 can be considered as a cheaper analogue American system OICW.

In the mid-1990s. presenters design bureaus Western countries led the development of new universal type small arms for arming soldiers of the 21st century. The customer was the joint command of NATO countries. One of the most promising samples was considered the OICW (Objective Individual Combat Weapon) system. military weapon"), first introduced in 2000.

Its developer was the American company Alliant Techsystem. The OICW consisted of three modules: an assault rifle (a modification of the German G36), a self-loading 20-mm magazine-fed grenade launcher, and a command module in the form of an optical sight with a thermal imager, a laser rangefinder and a ballistic computer.

A similar system was developed by the Belgian company Fabrique Nationale Herstal. However, she made all systems as unified as possible - suitable for self-use or for replacement on other types of small arms: a rifle of its own design was developed separately, a grenade launcher was developed separately, and a ballistic computer with optics was developed separately. They could be combined into one module, or they could be used individually.

This approach turned out to be much more effective. But the OICW system failed: all three modules as part of a single weapon were too heavy. Moreover, outside the OICW system, none of the modules had any particular value, in contrast to the already developed Fabrique Nationale system.

The story began in the late 1990s, when the Belgian concern Fabrik National (FN) decided to throw dust in everyone’s eyes, and even bring down the slot machine market.

Then they tried to make something with the most futuristic design and, at the same time, accurate, convenient and reliable. As a basis appearance a P-90 submachine gun was taken, but over time the appearance changed slightly. In 2001, the Belgians introduced the F-2000, an automatic rifle of the third millennium, to the world market. The rather large-looking case turns out to be very convenient and very light, since it consists entirely of polymer materials.

The bullpup design with the magazine located in the butt made it possible to reduce the length of the weapon, but increase the length of the barrel. Special mechanism with cartridge cases extending forward, as well as the bolt handle and fire selector on both sides allows the same efficient use weapons for both right-handers and left-handers.

Bullpup (English bullpup) - a diagram of the layout of the mechanisms of rifles and machine guns, in which the trigger is moved forward and located in front of the magazine and impact mechanism. Thanks to this arrangement, the overall length of the weapon is significantly reduced without changing the length of the barrel and, accordingly, without loss in accuracy and shooting accuracy, as well as in the effective firing range. The first experiments in using this scheme date back to the pre-war period (see PzB M.SS.41), but it became widely known and widespread with the introduction of the AUG rifle in 1977.

In addition, the F-2000 was designed so that a soldier could perform all actions with it with only one hand (when the second one is wounded or absent altogether). A special under-barrel grenade launcher, slightly large, but very ergonomic FN GL-1, is installed on the bottom of the weapon. A computerized sighting and computing system with a built-in thermal mode and target motion detector is installed on top of the weapon. The F2000 automatic system operates by removing powder gases; the barrel is locked by turning the bolt.

There is also a variant of the FN F-2000 Tactical, where instead of a grenade launcher, a sight and on the sides there are picatinny rails, on which you can install almost anything that comes to mind. The weapon is very well protected from dirt, although it has a rather complex mechanism inside. Fire modes - single and automatic (in the latter, by the way, the rate of fire reaches 900 rounds per minute, which is quite a lot for an assault rifle). However, despite all this, there are also disadvantages - the weapon is very difficult for idiot soldiers, which makes it unsuitable in conscript armies, and the price is so unreasonable that even large states Only elite units can equip this machine gun.

Despite the almost sealed case, if dirt can still get inside, then the shooter is guaranteed hemorrhoids. Thus, the F-2000 was ultimately considered commercially unsuccessful and its production would soon be suspended in favor of the SCAR system. Now the F-2000 is with: Belgian special forces, Chilean special forces, Battalion special operations Croatia, Indian Special Forces, Libyan Armed Forces, Pakistani Special Forces, Peruvian Special Forces, Army Saudi Arabia, Elite unit of the Slovenian army.

In 2001, one of the components of the new single weapon, the F2000 assault rifle, was presented as an independent development, ready for adoption and serial production.

The F2000 has all the features of a modular design weapon, adapted for the construction of shooting systems of several configurations. The forend is equipped with guides for installing an under-barrel 40-mm grenade launcher developed by Fabrique Nationale. Instead, the M303 module can be used - a specialized police grenade launcher for firing paint capsules or tear gas grenades.

The standard modification FS 2000 Standard is equipped with a standard optical sight with a magnification of 1.6X. The F2000 Tactical modification lacks this sight; instead, there is a universal guide on the body cover for installing sighting devices of any type. The F2000 can be equipped with a special computerized fire control module.

Currently, the F2000 series rifles are very popular. They are already in service with the armies of Slovakia, Croatia, as well as the army and special operations forces of Belgium. Among the recipients of FN F2000 are: special units Chile, India, Peru, Pakistan, Poland, National Guard Saudi Arabia. The FN F2000 rifle has already been tested in combat conditions in Afghanistan by Belgian, Slovenian and Polish units from the NATO contingent.

DESIGN FEATURES

The F2000 rifle is built according to the bullpup design; the body is made almost entirely of polymer and has an unusual, even somewhat innovative design. A reliable bolt locks the breech of the barrel with seven lugs. You can eliminate delays when firing or inspect the weapon’s automatics with one press of a button: above the breech of the barrel there is a cover that provides access to the internal automatics. The ejection of spent cartridges is carried out not to the side, like all other types of small arms, but forward, which allows you to shoot from the rifle with any hand without any changes in the mechanism. F2000 does it unique weapon, because in all other samples when optimizing for left hand minimal, but alterations are required.

Why do people go to the Chernobyl Zone? For artifacts? But the artifacts are sold to traders for next to nothing. To get rich? It seems that none of the stalkers ever got rich. But in the Zone you can cover for a friend and punish an enemy, in the Zone everything is serious - both life and death - and they are tightly intertwined. Stalkers are free from the rest of the world, apparently that’s how it is, this one external world, that in the radioactive wasteland of Chernobyl it is easier to breathe than in its expanses spat upon by lies. There is love, friendship, hatred, fear, and, of course, music. Music that can't be played anywhere else. Music of free stalkers, because “The Zone outside is better than the Zone inside”

Condor was a very experienced and skilled stalker - almost seven years in the Zone - no joke! But now all the experience and instinct of a free tramp clearly told him that the limit of luck had already been exhausted and it was time to leave if life was dear. The upcoming campaign for the Perimeter was to be the last - the pinnacle of his career - he undertook to lead to Big Earth damsel in distress. If only he knew what he had gotten himself into, what forbidden things he had touched and what watchmen he had awakened! The Storm gang, one of the most dangerous and merciless in the Zone, has already been sent on his trail by unknown enemies. And much more powerful forces are already ready to move and grind the Condor like a grain between a millstone. What other obstacles will he encounter on his way and how will he pay for touching the most dark secrets Zones?

A strange tourist arrived in the Zone - a rich old man with a retinue and bodyguards, whom sharp-tongued stalkers immediately nicknamed Sheikh. His team is also strange - the eternal loser Khromoy, the cruel Fache, the curious Norris, who was expelled from the Seeker group for her amateur activities, and the gloomy Deserter who came from nowhere - the owner of the worst reputation in the stalker environment. They have to go to the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. But the further it goes, the stranger things happen to the expedition. A mysterious ring of anomalies, suspiciously similar to a perimeter defense, is only the first of what awaits those who were foolish enough to accept the Sheikh’s offer...

Programmer Oleg Garin led a measured lifestyle and had no plans to enter the Zone. But then the courier fell ill, and the authorities from the Institute asked Garin to fly to the research post. There and back, just a matter of minutes! Who knew how this short business trip would turn out... Above the Zone, a helicopter crashes, in which everyone dies except Garin and a criminal nicknamed Stone. To survive, they will have to obtain the unique psionic artifact Crown and go through the entire Zone. This is a long path, full of lies and betrayal, through an invisible psi-war, in which the heroes became unwitting participants even before they got into the Zone.


IN Lately due to fierce competition, stalkers began to die more often not from deadly anomalies and mutants, but from the bullets of their greedy colleagues. For the sake of personal Happiness, walkers, without hesitation, commit betrayals and murders. In their harsh environment, their own laws of survival were formed: “If you don’t shoot, they shoot at you!”, “Kill or die!”, “Shot first - stay alive!”... However, among artifact seekers there are still “fools” who did not comply with local regulations. They neglect the brutal laws, because they believe that in order to achieve human Happiness, first of all, it is necessary to always and everywhere remain a real Man... And they deeply do not care what the Zone thinks about this...
