The SVD (Snayperskaya Vintovka Dragunova) is a Soviet semi-automatic sniper rifle designed by Yevgeny Dragunov in the late 1950s and adopted by the Soviet Army in 1963. The rifle is known for its reliability, accuracy, and semi-automatic capability, which allows for quick follow-up shots. During the Vietnam War, the SVD became significant due to its use by North Vietnamese forces and Viet Cong guerrillas, often supplied through Soviet military aid. Its presence in the conflict exemplified the widespread influence of Soviet weaponry and tactics, contributing to the challenges faced by U.S. and South Vietnamese forces who had to counter these well-equipped adversaries.
