In Syria, the Russian GAZ-3308 has become the base for the MLRS "Vulkan"

The Russian truck GAZ-3308 "Sadko" became a real "workhorse" in the Syrian army: it transports people and weapons, installed an 57-mm cannon on it, the UR-83P (Zmey Gorynych) demining system, and now it has become the base for the MLRS "Vulkan".

“About the fact that from the" Sadko "you can make such a MLRS, probably, did not even suggest the designers of this machine. Although, there is nothing surprising in this, the predecessors - GAZ-63 and GAZ-66 - coped well with such a role. So, the 63-mm 140-8 BM-32-14 system launcher was mounted on the GAZ-17, later the MLRS was transferred to the GAZ-66, ”writes Roman Katkov in his article for Messenger of Mordovia.

According to him, the Syrians have been making shells for Vulcan for a long time. In these munitions significantly increased the weight of explosives, which greatly enhances the possibility of hitting targets.

The article notes that the MLRS "Vulkan" have a firing range of just a few kilometers, so they work on targets, as a rule, in the line of sight.

Ay Syrians! Ah yes Kulibiny and Left-handed Middle Eastern bottling!
Do not cease to amaze. Although the incentive is understandable - war!

And remember how much the Soviet Union made new weapons in the 5 years of the war — count!
The war will force!

[Andrey Yuryevich]

how much more will there be such information, accompanied by admiring sobs ... we'll see two or three months ago: the same photos, and the same sobs ... (I am not a liberal, and not a witch of the people ... I want to be adequately ... .)

[Pereira]

I agree, chewing yesterday's chewing gum is unaesthetic. But one cannot but admit, in comparison with the banderloosh shushpanzer, this looks more adequate.

[Siny]

The warring parties are full of improvised and artisanal weapons, in a couple of years of armed conflict, Syria will become one big ruin, and who will restore it all? Russia? At the expense of state employees and pensioners?

[Alexander 3]

Any war ends in peace. peace would come, and there we’ll figure it out., Syria has a lot of oil.

[vkl.47]

"swamp" vostonovit.tvoy sidekick for example)))

[Siny]

most likely Syria will be restored at the expense of ordinary Russians i.e. at the expense of you and me including.

[vkl.47]

Do not worry, the Chinese will restore everything for Syrian oil

[Siberian]

What, so free? The West also howls that they won’t see the contracts for restoration like their ears if Assad wins. Syria may well pay for the restoration of the war.

Well, from you as not a comment, so continuous sobs. There is also no question of recovery, and you are already counting the money in your pocket.

[nickname7]

As a rule, in this tone, gentlemen liberals show concern for poor pensioners and ordinary Russians, the wolf regretted a goat, as they say.
Syria will provide profitable contracts to grow the business and pay off petrodolars. Retirees will not suffer.

Although, this is not surprising, the predecessors - GAZ-63 and GAZ-66 - quite coped with such a role. So a 63-mm launcher of the 140U8 BM-32-14 system was mounted on the GAZ-17, later this MLRS was transferred to the GAZ-66 "

In fact, BM-14-17 refers to a turbojet. And MLRS installations for this type of shells are even installed on quadrics. So this is not an indicator at all.

[x.andvlad]

I think that this is an indicator that this car has found its widespread use in this war, and its reliability allows you to do all kinds of experiments with it. And this, most likely, allows our engineers and designers to take into account the experience gained.

I do not want to belittle the quality of a Russian-made car, but I do not think that the Syrians have a great choice.

[aszzz888]

Well, the car is good, passable. The base allows you to experiment. It turns out pretty well. It’s possible and necessary to beat barmaley out of everything.

[padded jacket]

For the first time (in any case, I saw) the car appeared in the shots from Damascus and apparently there are not two or three of them. And earlier we saw the MLRS based on the BMP-1, which speaks of the "flight" of design ideas in Syria In fact, it would be time for them to deal with this especially with the release of any armored cars, otherwise the war in Tayota is not very frank.

Video with them:

[padded jacket]

Missiles of this MLRS, although their range is said to be five kilometers, but the warhead is significant.

[Voenoboz]

And there, apparently, a large range and is not needed.

[The leader of the Redskins]

"Sadko" is a worthy successor of "shishiga"! For a long time he will still help out those who adopt him)))

But you, Anika the warrior, were not taught to do what should and be, what will be?
Or do you think that those 12 thousand crocodiles that are now there, and who are weeping, would fight at your side, would be better?
Yes, with such, bl .... be "defenders", they could not fight off either Mamai, or Napoleon, or everyone else.

When this is done in (in) Ukraine, GG is written here from couch experts, there is no end to laughter and gloating. And here, over 2 years of zombies on TV, the Syrians became brothers and best friends (99% of them cannot show where Russia is on the map) and we praise them for their ingenuity and courage on GAZ 3308

[Siberia 9444]

In Syria, the war has been going on for 5 years! The enemy is very serious, it is arming Western countries. The warrior goes to the extermination of people in the most terrible way. And the country under the name of ukroin practically profiled all its enterprises and makes every slag in order to kill its citizens under the squeal of a Bandera hero.

[bald]

Our Lawnmen --- this is strength, without jokes.

[DM51]

Sadko is the same "shishiga" with several types of turbodiesels, the ergonomics are better, and the drive and transmission are the same
