"The SVD is a lightweight rifle used for mid-range sharp shooting. It's slightly less accurate than its American counterpart but shoots significantly faster"

— In-game description

The SVD is a weapon featured in Battlefield 2 for the Middle Eastern Coalition Sniper kit. Like the Type 88, the SVD is a semi-automatic sniper rifle with a ten-round magazine and a fairly high firecap. Its spread values are identical to the other sniper rifles, but as with the Type 88 its damage is only 45, whereas the bolt-action rifles have a damage value of 95. It can thereby, depending on shot placement, take as many as four rounds to kill an enemy, although a single headshot is an instant kill.

In Battlefield 2: Special Forces, it is the default sniper rifle for the MEC Special Forces, Russian Spetsnaz, Rebels and Insurgent Forces. It remains the same from base game. However, its reticle has been colored red to help contrast to the night maps.
