   AK-47之父去世享年94岁


        MOSCOW, Dec. 23 (Xinhua) -- Mikhail Kalashnikov, designer of the famed Russian AK-47 assault rifle, died on Monday in his home city of Izhevsk, an industrial town 1,300 km east of Moscow, local media reported.


  "We received sad news today ... Kalashnikov died at the age of 94 after a prolonged illness," Viktor Chulkov, press secretary of the president of Russia's Udmurt Republic, was quoted as saying.
  In mid-November, Kalashnikov was admitted to an intensive care unit in Izhevsk, capital of the Udmurt Republic, in serious but stable condition. In June, Kalashnikov reportedly underwent a surgery in Moscow to have a pacemaker implanted.
  AK-47, now believed to be in use in more than 100 countries, has been listed among the "outstanding inventions" of the 20th century.
  Kalashnikov said during a visit to Germany in 2002 that he was proud of his invention, but also saddened to know that the AK-47 rifles were widely used by terrorists.
  Kalashnikov died just a few hours after Kalashnikov Concern, an enterprise named after him, announced that the company was going to modernize 1 its well-known AK assault rifle and increase its export.
  "We are currently conducting a large number of research and development projects. We hope to begin a modernization 2 of the AK- 74 for the Defense 3 Ministry," RIA Novosti news agency quoted the company's director Konstantin Busygin as saying.
  Kalashnikov Concern, employing 4,600 workers, was created this year through the acquisition of several other defense enterprises.
