AK-47 is an all-purpose automatic assault rifle, that is effective from distances although it is not scoped. It is usable for close-quarter battles, since like a submachine weapon, it has a good reload-rate.
Project IGI[]
It is the most common weapon used by enemies; each dropped AK-47 contains 32 rounds.
At long distances, it has somewhat mediocre accuracy and is usable at 150 meters or less, compensate by firing many three-round bursts. Enemies won't spot the shooter, and won't retaliate.
At short distances, it is very accurate and powerful. It could work as a great replacement to the deadly Jackhammer shotgun.
Despite this gun's commonness, there is no ammo box for it, even though a 7.62mm ammo box exists in game data files.
AK-47 that appears in game is actually a Zastava M70 B1, which can be distinguished by the three-holed handguard.
The AK-47 is one of the only weapons which can be found infinitely in certain missions.
IGI 2: Covert Strike[]
AK 47 is again the most common weapon used by enemies, containing 30 rounds. At medium and hard difficulty, the dropped AK-47's have partially loaded magazines, which is the same to nearly all firearms in the game. It is typically wielded by Russian and Libyan guards, and Chinese base defense and strike teams.
Rate of fire of AK-47 is reduced to 600 RPM, but still it is useful at long and short ranges. The sound of the weapon is changed.
It has better accuracy then the AK in IGI-1. Its the most powerful assault rifle in the game. At short distances, AK-47 is very accurate and deadly being able to kill in 1-2 rounds. But the at ranges more than 500m the hit probability and damage is quite low almost none existent. However, it is a noisy weapon and has a huge muzzle flash immediately alerts guards to the player's presence, and causes a commotion that eventually brings enemy reinforcements to the scene. But, it is effective if the player can fire quickly and accurately at moving targets, since the enemy will never stand still with the player in sight.
AK-47 in-game is a Norinco Type 56-1, as evidenced by its hooded sight and folding stock.
