The machine gun is designed to defeat various targets, transport means and airborne targets.

- It possesses an improved closely-grouped fire, as compared to the existing analogs, which is greater by more than 2.5 fold on bipod shooting and more than 1.5 fold on rest shooting.

- The machine gun provides shooting away ammunition load that comprises no less than 400 cartridges with long bursts of 20-50 rounds without worsening the efficiency of shooting.

- The barrel life cycle makes up 30 thousand rounds on firing with intense modes, which does not require the application of a replaceable barrel during operation.
