[Question] Will AKM's and AKMS's be used by Polish Faction?

[GeorgRavioli]

I've noticed in many pictures that a lot of Polish Army units still use the old AKM and AKMS (locally known as 7.62mm Karabinek AKM and 7.62mm Karabinek AKMS respectively). I was wondering if these will be used by Poland in Project Reality.

Evidence:







These are just some of many pictures I've found on this. I hope you will consider this, maybe if you make a rear-echelon, these could be used (like the Norwegian Home Guard in the Norwegian Faction). Perhaps you could even use the AK-47 and AKS-47 as placeholders.

the designplan is your friend.

perhaps our polish comrades will make work of your suggestion, however it looks to me like the soldiers in above posts are exercising or generally still in training, perhaps that explains the use of older AK versions?

AKM and AKMS are used for training and reserves, generally every front line soldier will be issued a Beryl.
If you look at the pictures you will notice that all soldiers are recruits. It's easier to issue a cheap, old weapon for training than a brand new Beryl. If you look at all the pictures from Chad or Afghanistan, or even joint Polish-<insert nation here> exercices you will notice all rifleman carry Beryls.

Dang it. Ah well. I'll have to annoy the DEVs about getting the AKM's in somewhere, if not Polish Forces.

What im more interested in is if there will be female soldiers... jokes


AKM's are already go to the Taliban, the Insurgants, and the Milita, do they not?
