FN – the iconic brand of FN Browning Group’s Defence & Security division, which includes FN Herstal, FN UK and FN America – is proud to introduce the FN ARKA®, a next-generation rifle platform that leverages AR-15 ergonomics to meet the demands of modern military and law enforcement professionals.
Backed by over 135 years of expertise in small arms design and manufacturing, and inheriting the unique rifle development legacy of the iconic FN® FAL and FN SCAR®, the FN ARKA® provides great versatility for armed forces, police, and security services, delivering highly performant, intuitive, and mission-ready technology.
The FN ARKA® retains the accurate, durable and reliable mechanical systems of the FN SCAR® while replacing its standard architecture with the ergonomics of the AR-15 with enhanced ambidextrous controls. This provides a powerful synergy of the best features of both platforms.
