    The F2000 modular system was developed by Fabrique Nationale Herstal and was first presented to the public in 2001, and the beginning of development dates back to the first half of the 1990s. The main features of the F2000 are, in addition to the now traditional bullpup design and modular design, the complete “double-sidedness” of the weapon, achieved not only by the location of the controls so that they can be reached with either hand, but also by the ejection of spent cartridges not to the side, but forward, which allows you to shoot a rifle from any shoulder without the need for any changes in the mechanism of the weapon. Currently (early 2007), the F2000 series weapons are being intensively promoted on the global arms market; these rifles are already in service with the Slovak army and the Belgian special operations forces.

    The basis of the system is the F2000 assault rifle. It is built according to a traditional automatic system with a gas drive and locking the barrel by turning the bolt. The bolt is also of a completely traditional design, with 7 lugs, and is locked behind the breech of the barrel. The key feature of the mechanism is the absence of a traditional ejector, which ejects the spent cartridge case outside the receiver. Instead, at the breech of the barrel there is a swinging plastic part - a guide, and in the body of the weapon to the right of the barrel there is a tubular channel for removing the cartridges with their subsequent ejection from the weapon in the area of ​​​​the muzzle of the barrel. After the shot, the bolt, holding the spent cartridge case on its mirror with the help of an extractor tooth, moves back. At the same time, the plastic guide for spent cartridges turns back, blocking the path of the empty cartridge back into the chamber. On the way forward, the lower protrusions of the bolt pick up a new cartridge from the magazine, and the spent cartridge case, still held on the jam mirror by the extractor, runs over the swinging guide and is moved upward from the line of the barrel bore into the cartridge removal tube. In this case, when the bolt moves forward, the guide rotates, moving the bottom of the spent cartridge case away from the bolt and freeing up space for the new cartridge on the bolt mirror and the path into the chamber. The spent cartridges are removed from the tube through the hole in the front of the weapon forward, under their own weight or by displacing them with the next cartridges. The special design of the entrance to the cartridge ejection tube prevents cartridges from falling back into the receiver. To eliminate delays when firing and to inspect the weapon, there is a hinged spring-loaded cover above the breech of the barrel. Fire modes - single shots and automatic. The fire mode selector is located inside the trigger guard, and the safety is located directly below it. The F2000 body is made of polymer in a bullpup design. The charging handle is on the left side of the weapon. The F2000 handguard is also made of plastic and is easily removable. Instead, the following can be installed: a handguard with a built-in laser designator; handguard with built-in flashlight; underbarrel 40-mm grenade launcher developed by FN Herstal; M303 under-barrel “non-lethal” module, which fires capsules of paint or tear gas using compressed gas stored in a small cylinder. In addition, in the future it is possible to install other modules developed in accordance with the requirements of a specific customer. On the upper surface of the F2000 body there is a Picatinny rail type guide for installing sighting devices. As standard, the F2000 is equipped with an optical sight with 1.6X magnification and a wide field of view, but it can be quickly replaced with any other sight (including night sight) that has the appropriate mounts. On the upper surface of the standard optical sight there are open reserve front and rear sights. Instead of a sight, the F2000 can be equipped with a special computerized fire control module, which includes a laser range finder and a ballistic computer. Based on data on the range to the target obtained using a laser rangefinder, the computer provides data for aiming the weapon according to the elevation angle in the field of view of the sight, using a simple indication system of two LEDs - red and green. The shooter, changing the position of the weapon in the vertical plane, monitors the LEDs: red is on - you need to continue aiming vertically, green is on - the barrel has been given the elevation required for shooting and you can shoot at the target. The grenade launcher is aimed in azimuth (in the horizontal plane) in the usual way, according to the marks of the optical sight. Such a system significantly increases the accuracy of firing 40-mm grenades at medium and long ranges, while the guidance module has a relatively simple design and, as a result, high reliability at a reasonable price.
