— Battlelog description
The AKS-74u is a weapon featured in Battlefield 3.
Singleplayer and Co-Op[]
The AKS-74u is one of the primary weapons of the PLR and Iranian military. It is first found in Semper Fidelis/The Great Destroyer, where the player takes one from a PLR soldier after the first quick time event of the level(s). It is also one of the player's starting weapons along with the AS Val in Comrades. It is most heavily used in the missions taking place outside of Iran—where it is largely offset by the KH2002.
Multiplayer[]
The AKS-74u is the default Russian carbine for the Engineer kit. It functions in a similar manner to its larger relative, the AK-74M, with a slower fire rate than its USMC counterpart the M4A1, but is less effective at long range and more effective at close range compared to the AK-74M. As the final unlock for the Engineer, the player will unlock the ability to use the AKS-74u while playing as the US faction, as well as being able to use the M4A1 for the RU faction.
Due to its lower fire rate, this gun is less effective at close ranges than the M4A1, but the more controlled fire rate makes its recoil slightly more predictable at medium ranges. In terms of recoil and firerate, the AKS-74u is to the AK-74M as the M4A1 is to the M16A3.
