well hello... airstrikes, fighter planes/napalm and helicopter gunships strafing everything that moves, artillery, carpet bombing etc etc etc.
i am not a weapons specialist... not even sure what that means. my tiger style is quite strong though and my crane technique is unbeatable however.
when M16s were first introduced in vietnam they were killing more US soldiers than AK-47s were by constant jamming and failing. only after changing powders in the ammunition, and learning they had to constantly clean the gun all day everyday, did a lot of that stop.
other than that, no one that knows anything about weapons is going to argue that the M16 is better in combat conditions than the AK.
