TKB-011, along with its later variants TKB-011M and TKB-011 2M, were Soviet bullpup assault rifles capable of fully automatic fire, chambered for the 7.62x39mm round and developed by the small arms designer Nikolai M. Afanasyev between 1963 and 1965. Their internal components were made of steel while their external furniture was bakelite. These rifles, together with the related TKB-022PM, were among the first weapons to use a tunnel type ejection port, a feature later adopted on the FN F2000.
