The PK-A red dot sight is a reflex sight produced by BelOMO in Minsk, Belarus. The sight is compatible with side-mounted systems commonly found on AK, SKS, and SVD-type rifles. The sight itself is comparable to many Western red dot sights, such as the AimPoint Comp M3 and Comp M4. The sight uses a single red dot within a nitrogen-filled lens setup and has eight brightness levels.
Battlefield 3
— Battlelog description
The PK-A is a 3.4x magnification sight featured in Battlefield 3. It serves as the Russian equivalent of the American M145.
Compared to the M145, the PK-A is notably less obstructive and sports a single red chevron, rather than the actual crosshairs in the M145. The chevron is illuminated, making it the easier of the two 3.4x sights to aim in the dark without assistance from another attachment, like a Laser Sight. However, despite being a superior night-ops choice, the PK-A has no ticks or reticle markings of any kind to indicate bullet drop. The M145 does have such markings, making it superior for longer-range combat.

Battlefield 4
— Battlelog description
The PK-A (3.4X) appears in Battlefield 4 as a primary weapon optic. It is the Russian equivalent of the American M145 (3.4x) and the Chinese PRISMA (3.4x).
The PK-A now uses a circle-and-crosshair reticle similar to the Holographic Sight, instead of the chevron it had in Battlefield 3.
Singleplayer
In Singleplayer, the PK-A appears as a preset optic on the PKP Pecheneg.
Multiplayer
In the multiplayer, the PK-A is unlocked for Russian primary weapons through progression and is unlocked through Battlepacks for all other primary weapons.

Trivia
- An ACOG mounted on the MK3A1 once used a single enlarged chevron, similar to the PK-A. This has been fixed in a patch.
- Despite the description in Battlefield 4 claiming that it has "a traditional Russian chevron reticle", it is closer in resemblance to a EOTech holographic crosshair, featuring a dot and circle configuration.
