"In early 2020, a number of Russian special forces units were supplied with the DXL-4 sniper rifle — the "army" version of the longest-range rifle in the world produced by Lobaev Arms (link to Sumrak article). This weapon was created not just to destroy the enemy on the battlefield, but for targeted attacks on low-observable targets at ultra-long sniper range from 1.5 to 2.5 km…" Main page

A 2.5 km range is impressive….!

True enough but I would point out that the longest ranged sniper kill was 3.5 km, in Iraq in 2017 by a Canadian Special Forces sniper using a McMillan TAC-50 |
