Come Back Alive Foundation Arms First Group of ‘Pure Anger’ Snipers
Come Back Alive CF Infantry armament Sniping Ukraine
The first group of Ukrainian snipers who completed their training
received 14 Cadex CDX-40 CBA Shadow rifles from the Come Back Alive
Foundation.
This news was announced by the Foundation.
The Foundation’s specialists have already contracted, purchased, and
even supplied some of the weapons to be used by the sniper teams formed
under the “Pure Anger” project.
“In February, we jointly raised UAH 11,171,486 instead of the planned
UAH 10 million. Accordingly, instead of 45 rifles for snipers of the
Ukrainian Defense Forces, we purchased 50 units,” the Foundation said.
Cadex CDX-40 CBA Shadow rifles purchased by the Come Back Alive Foundation These rifles were developed by the Foundation’s sniper instructors,
based on ten years of experience in the Russian-Ukrainian war and on the
wishes and recommendations of professional shooters.
At the Foundation’s request, the Canadian company Cadex produced a rifle model named in honor of the Come Back Alive Foundation – Cadex CDX-40
CBA Shadow, where CBA stands for Come Back Alive.
The first 14 .375 CheyTAC rifles have already been delivered to the
first group of snipers to complete their training. The rifles will be
equipped with Schmidt & Bender sights and an Andres-Industries thermal
imaging attachment.
The .375 CheyTAC (9.5×77mm) caliber is not commonly used by the
Ukrainian Defense Forces and is currently used by a handful of units due
to the high cost of the ammunition and its purpose for
ultra-long-distance firing. Therefore, the Foundation also purchases
special high-precision ammunition.
The ammunition of this caliber is characterized by good ballistics and
high accuracy, allowing for hitting a tall target at a distance of 2000
meters with a deviation of less than 1 angular minute.

In total, under the project with a total budget of UAH 220 million, the Foundation plans to equip 25 sniper groups consisting of 4 shooters
each. The equipment will be purchased for them:
100 .375 CheyTAC sniper rifles with daytime optics, thermal imaging
pre-biased nozzle, bipod and silencer;
100,000 high-precision rounds of ammunition, which will last for 2 years;
50 specially prepared off-road vehicles;
50 laser rangefinders;
50 PVS14 night vision devices;
50 remote monitoring systems;
50 telescopes for observation and correction;
50 weather stations with a built-in Applied Ballistics calculator;
25 Labradar Doppler radars;
50 Mavic Thermal Pro quadcopters.
Militarnyi filmed a series of reports with the project developers and
the military, in which they examined the sniper system and other
equipment in detail.
Last week, Come Back Alive Foundation also purchased FN Minimi machine
guns for the soldiers of the 47th “Magura” Mechanized Brigade.
