The defence, military and air attachés accredited to Hungary recently paid a visit to the MoD ARZENÁL Electromechanical Co. in Nyírtelek, where they were briefed in detail about the activities of the company.

On April 17 the members of the Budapest Military Attaché Corps (BMAC) visited Nyírtelek, a town situated some 10 kilometers from Nyíregyháza. CEO Gábor Varga and Technical Director Tibor Takács introduced the guests to the activities of the MoD ARZENÁL Co. In their presentation, they talked about the modernization of the AK–63F assault rifle. They noted that the modification of the weapon ensures the mounting of state-of-the-art sights and other accessories which enable quick and accurate firing day and night and under extreme environmental conditions (at temperatures of -30 and +50 degrees Celsius).
