Revision as of 18:42, 15 April 2012
An AN-94 with the GP34 undermounted in reality.
The AN-94 (Russian: Avtomat Nikonova 1994; English: Automatic Nikonov model 1994), also known as the Abakan or 6P33, is an advanced Russian assault rifle designed by Gennadiy Nikonov from 1980-1994. The AN-94 Abakan fires the 5.45x39mm round which is a lighter and more accurate version of the powerful 7.62x39mm round. It uses some of the features of the AK-74, such as the 30 round magazine and the pistol grip, but is otherwise a completely new gun. It has a special 2 round burst setting, utilizing a system known to Russians as "blowback shifted pulse," that negates the recoil until after the second round has fired, so that accuracy isn't compromised, and also allows each burst to fire accurately at the rate of 1800 rounds per minute.
Battlefield: Bad Company
In Battlefield: Bad Company's singleplayer, the AN94 can be found on the mission Crossing Over as a collectable. At the very beginning, at Russo-Serdaristani border, it is in one of the houses. It can also be found off of dead Serdaristani soldiers during Air Force One.
In multiplayer, the AN94 is issued to the Assault kit. The AN-94 is unlocked by either buying the Gold Edition of Battlefield: Bad Company or by reaching the highest rank (Rank 25, General of the Army). It has a 50 round magazine and 150 rounds in reserve, and an attached GP-30. It is fully automatic and has the second highest rate of fire of the assault rifles, second to the F2000, which is balanced by lower damage. It takes around 12-15 shots to kill an enemy. It is a generally poor choice for long range, as its high rate of fire can easily cause a player to overshoot, and its awkward iron sights can be difficult to use, especially with the guns muzzle flash. However, it's a great choice for close quarters, where a spray and pray tactic can be quite effective.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2
— In-game description.
In singleplayer, the AN-94 is very common in the early parts of the campaign, and comes with a Red Dot Sight, but they can also be found with a 4X Rifle Scope.
In multiplayer, the AN-94 Abakan requires 28000 points for the Assault class to unlock. In-game, the AN-94 fires in a two-round burst. Although it fires in two-round bursts, it is possible to fire the weapon as though it were automatic.
Like the M60, the AN-94 was originally much more powerful than it became through patches. Its close range damage was about 20, making it more powerful than most other assault rifles. However, its damage was reduced to that of the AUG, XM8 and M416, making it the assault rifle with the lowest damage per period of time due to its slow rate of fire, coupled with the longest reload and second highest recoil.

Battlefield 3
— Battlelog description
The AN-94 returns in Battlefield 3.
Singleplayer
In the singleplayer aspect of the game, it is only found amongst the VDV troops during Rock and a Hard Place.
Multiplayer
In multiplayer, it is an all-faction weapon unlocked for the Assault kit once the player has reached 166,000 Assault score. It features burst and full-auto firemodes; however, unlike the other weapons with the same feature, the AN-94 is set by default to burst mode, and fires a two-round-burst as opposed to the three-round-burst common amongst the other weapons. The AN-94 is unique in that its burst fire mode is significantly faster than its fully-automatic firemode: whereas the two round burst fires at 1200 rounds per minute, the automatic firemode fires at half that, at 600 rounds per minute.
The AN-94 also has the second highest upward kick of the assault-kit weapons, just after the G3A3, at 0.45. But what makes the AN-94 particularly effective is that it's first shot recoil multiplier is less than 1, meaning that the first shot's kick is the lowest of all weapons, but the second shot will have a strong kick; note that the kick from the second shot is of no consequence, since by the time a followup burst is fired, the weapon will have settled. This makes the 2-shot burst very effective, but fully automatic will have very pronounced recoil. Also its good to note that the M320 is the only underslung attachment it is able to use.
