Significantly lighter than its previous version, the AGS-30 weighs 30 kg loaded, meaning it can be carried by one person. Using a specially designed GPD-30 [[ammunition|grenade]] (30×29mm), the AGS-30 can engage targets at 2100m.
It is usually mounted on a [[tripod]] or a [[turret]], or used as part of a remotely controlled [[weapon]] system, mounted on various [[military vehicle|combat vehicles]].
