A distant relative of the Kalashnikov rifles developed by the Zastava Arms company in 2004, Zastava M21 is the current standard issue service rifle for the Serbian Army, production of the M21 began even before the splitting of Yugoslavia.
 
The Zastava M21 a conventional layout, gas operated assault rifle with a rotating bolt locking system. Chambering the 5.56x45mm NATO, M21 is fed by a 30-round magazine, able to achieve a rate of fire of 680 rounds per minute, covering an effective firing range up to 600 metres. Having many similar design features to a Kalashnikov rifle, right side charging handle, behind the well magazine release, even able to utilize a Kalashnikov style clamp mount for optics. Just like most other modern modular assault rifle designs, M21 can attach specific combat accessories based on sortie needs. To improve compatibility with NATO arsenal, M21 can undergo modifications and mount Picatinny rails.
 
Other notable features of the M21 include the foldable stock, compatibility with underslung 40mm grenade launchers (Typically a derived model of the Soviet GP-25) and the 22mm rifle grenade compatible flash hider. Zastava Arms have experimented with different barrel forging processes, other than the conventional rifling barrel, M21 also have access to polygonal barrels, barrels made for Zas M21 are hard chrome plated to achieve a longer service lifespan. Other than the main battle rifle variant, M21 have two shorter variants labelled as M21 S (Shorter barrel assault rifle) and M21 C (Carbine).

=== Design ===
The second T-doll nineo contributed to Girls Frontline, The game already have a {{doll name|M21|RF|3}}, so nineo addresses Zastava M21 simply as Zas to avoid confusions, Zas is a very eye catching T-doll with peculiar features. <del>Mushroom head</del> Odd hair style and colour, very visible nail polish of different colours, mismatching stockings and an odd earring piece on her left ear. General colour theme of Zas is black white and cyan added with a bit of orange. The colour combination of cyan and orange does give Zas a little bit of SciFi look.
 
There is a triangle marking on her orange goggles, same markings can be found above her hips and on her tongue. No possible suggestions towards the meaning of these markings from neither MICA team nor nineo(yet).
 
=== Personality ===
Official character description states that she is a rationalized surrealist, rational actions are essentially her faith. She does have interesting hobbies that are not quite rational, one of which is finger nail painting, apparently each one of her finger nails all have a different fragrance. (She even offers to paint the Commander's nails)
 
This [https://weibo.com/1869856223/FDK3ks9ev?type=comment#_rnd1518275491974 weibo post] from nineo is an unofficial character sheet for Zas, shown several features of Zas' character design and some character personality settings, though note that the character setting part are not official description from MICA team, but purely from nineo.
 
=== In-game ===
Zas features a very fast 4 second initial cool down grenade launching skill, which is the same as the SMG units with Molotov skill while having a larger area of effect. Zas' skill have two possible effects depending on how many units she hits with the grenade:
*More than 3 units hit by the skill, the grenade itself will do more damage.
*Less than 3 units hit by the skill, Zas herself will do more damage per shot for a duration.
 
With the short initial cool down and the large area of effect, Zas' grenade skill is very effective against large crowd of enemy units, namely Dinergates.
