Just like the Five-seveN^® handgun, the P90^® submachine gun was developed around the 5.7x28mm ammunition to meet the Armies requirement in terms of efficiency.

Two versions are available:  

• P90^® Standard
• P90^® Tactical

The Tactical version incorporates most features of the Standard version plus an enlarged top rail for add-on sighting systems. Both the Standard and the Tactical versions can be fitted with an integrated visible or infrared laser.

• Stopping Power for Close Combat
  
  The FN P90^® submachine gun and the SS190 ball ammunition team up to defeat the enemy in all close combat situations.

• High Accuracy
  
  The high velocity of the 5.7x28mm ammunition guarantees a virtually flat trajectory up to 200m for outstanding accuracy.

• Fully Reliable
  
  The simple design of the mechanism, the unique feed mechanism and the materials used to manufacture the FN P90^® make it highly reliable, whatever the conditions.

• Rapid Deployment
  
  The FN P90^® is carried ready to fire. There is no need to extend any folding buttstock. Despite its shortness, the FN P90^® is designed to be fired from the shoulder, giving maximum stability.

• Easy to Carry
  
  The compactness of the FN P90^® allows easy movement in confined areas. The magazine is fully integrated in the upper part of the FN P90^® for optimized ergonomics.

• Fully Ambidextrous
  
  The cocking handle and magazine catch can be operated from both sides of the FN P90^®. The fire selector is under the trigger and can be operated in either hand. Empty cartridge cases are ejected downwards. The FN P90^® can therefore be handled by right- and left-handed operators without any modification.

• High Magazine Capacity
  
  Since the 5.7x28mm rounds are light and small, the magazine fitted above the barrel can accept up to 50 cartridges.

• Maximum Flexibility of Weapon Configuration
  
  The FN P90^® Tactical is fitted with two side rails and an enlarged top MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail that accepts the in-line assembly of a light amplifier and a red dot for night vision. The top rail comes standard with a built-in emergency iron sight adjustable in windage and elevation. A tactical light or laser can be mounted onto the side rails.
