What a horrific record!
"The single shot hit and killed two Russian soldiers in the Pokrovsk sector, a feat made possible by the range of Ukraine’s domestically produced rifle and the proficiency of its snipers – with the help of artificial intelligence (AI) and drone guidance. ...
The “Alligator” is a Ukrainian-made rifle produced by Kharkiv-based XADO-Holding. It is magazine-fed, with a 14.5 mm caliber, a 1,200 mm barrel, and a muzzle velocity of 980–1,000 meters per second (3,215–3,281 feet per second).
The rifle weighs 25 kilograms (55 pounds), which is considered normal for its caliber. ...
The outlet added that 4 kilometers (about 4,374 yards) is by no means the limit for this rifle. A bullet fired from it can travel up to 7 kilometers (about 7,655 yards). However, accuracy is the main limiting factor: At a distance of 1.5 kilometers (about 1,640 yards), the deviation can already form a circle roughly one meter in diameter. Therefore, at a distance of 4 kilometers, the sniper most likely had to fire a series of shots to achieve the successful hit. ..."
