'Suppressed Small-sized Automatic Rifle') is an integrally suppressed compact assault rifle chambered in 9×39mm subsonic cartridge, developed and manufactured alongside the Kalashnikov Concern AM-17 that was based on the Yevgeny Dragunov MA prototype. Both the AM-17 and AMB-17 were unveiled by Kalashnikov Concern at the Russian Army Expo 2017.
The AMB-17 is designed for covert close quarters operations, primarily for special units of the Russian Interior Ministry and the Russian Army intended as a potential replacement for the AS Val and VSS Vintorez.
