"Medium range assault rifle, medium to high stopping power based on caliber. Used by Spetznaz."
— In-game description

The AK-12 is a weapon featured in Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege. It is available for use by Fuze and Ace.

Overview

The AK-12 (formerly the АK-200) is the newest derivative of the AK-pattern series of assault rifles. The AK-12 is an assault rifle manufactured by Kalashnikov Concern (formerly Izhmash) that chambers the 5.45x39mm round.

In-game, the AK-12 combines decent firepower with fast 850 rounds per minute. This makes the assault rifle capable of taking on the weaker but faster-firing submachine guns. However, it's difficult to control its harsh recoil when fired fully automatic, requiring either the use of a Vertical Grip and a Compensator to ease it.

Trivia

  • The AK-12 utilized is modeled after the original 2012 prototype, which fired at 600-650 RPM and was later canceled for the Final Production Model that was based on the well-proven AK-400 (Base Prototype).
    • The selector switch is marked the wrong way. The order of the markings АВ-3-1-ПР should follow from rear to front, instead of the model's front to rear order.
  • The AK-12's bolt locks back on the last round. Special 5.45 magazines for the AK-12 have been developed in real life that allow the weapon to have this feature.
