The SVD Dragunov Sniper Rifle, developed in the late 1950s in the Soviet Union by Yevgeny Dragunov, is a semi-automatic rifle chambered for the 7.62x54mmR cartridge.
It was adopted by the Soviet military in 1963 and served as a designated marksman rifle. The SVD gained international popularity, with various variants and adaptations, and remains in use worldwide due to its reliability and ruggedness, leaving a lasting legacy in military firearms development.
