The PA-64 (Slavic: ПА-64), is a Bullpup Assault Rifle designed and manufactured by Plamya Building Plant. Introduced in 1964 to the military as the main infantry assault rifle, it proved effective in the battlefield during the War of The Three States. However, due to its lowering efficiency and aging design, it was later replaced by the PA-93. Despite ceasing production and no longer in service in the main infantry, it has seen several revisions during 2005 - 2010 where it's been refitted to be attached with grenade launchers, suppressors, various optical and night vision sights, and a new caliber in which it's still in use by the Zloveshchiyian Special Forces, specifically, the Black Wolves for anti-terrorism purposes.
