The X95, previously known as the Micro-Tavor or the MTAR-21, is an Israeli bullpup carbine standalone derivative of the original IWI Tavor assault rifle, produced by Israel Weapon Industries (IWI).
In 2009, the X95 was selected by the IDF to gradually replace the M16 rifle variants as the standard issued weapon of the Israeli infantry by the end of 2018.
Variants[]
The X95 is offered in both 5.56×45mm NATO and .300 BLK, as well as 5.45×39mm. It has 2 configurations: 330mm(12.9") and 419mm(16.4"). A 380mm(15") was offered, however it was discontinued. There are also 3 variants:
- X95-L: Also known as Kalah, this is a marksman variant with a 16.5" barrel and pre-equipped with a bipod, however only semi-automatic fire is available.[1]
- X95-R: Another variant chambered in 5.45x39mm.
- X95 SMG: A 9×19mm Parabellum variant, has a barrel length of 280mm(11").
- X95-S SMG: An integrally suppressed variant of the X95 SMG.
Licensed Variants
- Fort-224: Licensed Version of the X95-R, only produced in small arms.[2]
- Zittara: A proposed 5.56x30mm MINSAS version of the X95 SMG; 12,000 were ordered, however, this variant seems to have been canceled.[2][3]
