The SP-81 ("Signal pistol model 1981") is a Soviet/Russian flare gun, developed in 1980 and adopted in 1981, produced by Kovrov plant/ZiD. Created as a replacement for the SPSh-44, it actually represents its more compact version. It can be equipped by holster with a cartridge belt for ten charges.
Like its predecessor, the SP-81 also exists in the AL-1 line-thrower configuration.
It is also worth noting that the SP-81 was one of the few flare guns that had a combat version. In 1994, by special permission of the MAI, for truckers transporting especially valuable cargo, a version with an elongated heavy barrel, adapted for KS-23 charges, was released. The regular cartridge was the "Volna-R". The order was for 10,000, it is not known how much was actually produced.
