In Syria, the "Mustang" installed 57-mm anti-aircraft gun

According to "Messenger of Mordovia”, In the composition of the government forces of Syria, the KamAZ-5350 of the Mustang family, equipped with the 57-mm C-60 anti-aircraft gun, was recorded. Machines of this type had previously been encountered in the Arab Republic only as a freight vehicle used for the purpose of delivering personnel, transporting ammunition and military equipment, and towing artillery systems due to their high maneuverability.

The C-60, which has a range of fire up to 4 km, showed itself positively during the civil war in Syria. There are cases when a projectile fired from a given gun and having an initial velocity in 1000 m / s, when hit in a side projection, disrupted the medium T-55 tank. The BMP-1 suffered critical damage. In addition, the high-explosive fragmentation projectile weighing 2,8 kg used by the weapon is able to effectively destroy the enemy's manpower.

Prior to this, the C-60 was mounted on the chassis of all-terrain vehicles "Ural", commercial trucks "Mercedes", combat vehicles GM-578 of the anti-aircraft missile complex "Kvadrat". After installing the guns on the KamAZ, perhaps their location on the ZIL-131, which began to flow into the Syrian army.

The development of unified army all-wheel drive vehicles of the multi-purpose Mustang family - KAMAZ-4350 (4 × 4), KAMAZ-5350 (6 × 6) and KAMAZ-6350 (8 × 8) - began at the Kamz plant, by a resolution of a resolution. 721 from 161 June 24 of the year. In 1987, the modified models of the Mustang family - KamAZ-2002, KamAZ-4350 and KamAZ-5350 with improved technical and operational characteristics passed certification tests and were ordered to supply the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation No. 6350 from 340 August 28.

It is possible to shoot only from the spot, because in motion the gun will swing the truck strongly, you can forget about the accuracy of the fire.

[Orionvit]

Maybe on the contrary, the accuracy of the fire is affected by the fact that the truck swings the gun during movement.

[Azim77]

Both judgments are true, because both the firing gun and the moving truck are sources of shaking. CEP Nevertheless, such a symbiosis is already a formidable and serious weapon, in comparison with any jihadomobiles.

[Orionvit]

Yes, the truck like a drum, whether they shoot from it while driving, or not, especially since the recoil is from 47mm. guns for KAMAZ is not significant. But it affects the accuracy of shooting, that's for sure. Try to shoot on the go at least from a rifle, and look at the result.

And so ..... "neither yours, nor ours ..." During the movement, the truck swings the cannon, and the cannon swings the truck during the fire ... in the end, it’s full "naturlich"!

Video of cars and trucks firing from a place = 1000, in motion = 10 (?) (I have not seen a single one, really).
Therefore, the issue of firing in motion is not worth the trouble.

So after all, if the gun hits the flank, then it will easily lie on the recoil and on its side ...

07.49. Boyhanter! Pasha! The loaf is vigorous! I don’t know what they did there. But I think people did not stupid. To prevent the machine from turning over, there are retractable stops on truck cranes. If they put the gun on the platform of a truck crane or a television tower, then that means there are stops. I drive the trucks myself, I drive myself. They do not turn over during loading and unloading.

[bouncyhunter]

This is clear . But only in the photo I’m not focusing something!

[34 region]

08.11/XNUMX. Boyhanter! Pash! Similarly! Maybe someone else will post the photo in more detail. And of course it's unclear.

[Pajamas]

With a target range of 3 to 10 km, why shoot from the side, why not from the stern, but from the side, in principle, there are no problems, but the short bursts of 2-3 shells also depend on tactics.

We don’t even have any primitive home-made armored protection !!!

Yes, I don’t remember that the anti-aircraft gunners would ever have at least some normal protection ... Of course, if we talk about machine-gun (from the Great Patriotic War) and cannon systems.
Yes, and they should not fight alone. They taught us SO ...

[Nix1986]

Wow news, just a sensation !!! And the other day I pulled the covers on the seats, maybe post the news too! :))

[Mountain shooter]

No wonder. S-60 is, in fact, anti-tank ZIS-2 during WWII. The Tigers stopped. And KAMAZ all-wheel drive is also a car, even where. Here is the synergistic effect of their combination

[Zaurbek]

They did not stop the tigers ...

[Orionvit]

They stopped, and the T-4 used to be flashed to take off. It was after the Kursk Bulge that the production of 57mm anti-tank tanks was restored. guns whose production was previously suspended due to "excessive penetration".

[Zaurbek]

The tiger did not pierce either the PT-76mm or the PT-85mm in the forehead. The PT-85mm from the T-34-85 took the tiger aboard up to 600m. 100mm, 122mm and 152mm guns were dangerous for the Tiger from all sides. I agree with T-3 and T-4.

[Orionvit]

Stop the tank, this does not mean that it must be pierced in the frontal projection. Although this is an indicator.

[Zaurbek]

Then why talk about 57mm. PT gun to help you -14mm.

[Barakuda]

For visual entertainment, the S-60 stood next to the boxes (Wasps, Buki, Torah ..). Twist-rejoice. They could not even imagine that after so many years they were still in service ...

[iliitchitch]

Accuracy is inaccuracy. And the rate of fire, yes in terms of square-nesting method? Normally, just fill in the solarium, and in tank schools you do not need to teach drugs, again.

[Zaurbek]

where haven’t you put a 57mm gun yet?

[Gray brother]

This is a common practice there.

[quote = Gray brother] It's a common practice there.

This is not a 57mm anti-aircraft gun, some kind of ZIS-2.

Let it be your way. But then the main question of philosophy remains. Do you need a truck in order to carry a gun, or do you need a gun to shoot from a truck.

[nivander]

I’d put the jacks in order to beat a pretty penny from 1,5 km (I’m not kidding myself I saw at the Khabarovsk test site)

[bald]

Goal for the invention of cunning (linear). Well done guys - the head works.

[Vladimir Postnikov]

With such equipment, Syria is turning into a bottomless barrel, where shells made in USSR disappear. It’s good if you ordered a new 57mm shell production line. I wonder how they resumed their production?
If the shooting comes from automobile springs (without beds, openers, supports, outriggers), then this is what is called the "bottomless barrel". The fact that the Syrians are so entertained is understandable, they use a freebie. If Russia delivered long-missed shells there, then it’s also not a pity. More recently, problematic articles were published regarding the shell industry. Are the problems overcome? I doubt it. The shells require big money, but you won’t put them on Red Square, i.e. You won’t make any PR.

[commbatant]

The S-60 is a Soviet anti-aircraft artillery system using the AZP-57 anti-aircraft guns of 57 mm caliber, developed in the mid-1940s and widely used in the world.

Good gun And if you shoot BR at 50 rounds per minute ....

judging by your post and especially by a tearful note, do you pay for ammunition from your pocket?
no? do not pay?
and now about the entertainment you describe.
The Syrian army is not on the boardwalk in Cannes, but on its land is fighting for its land.
We are not having fun either.
It’s good to smear snot along the sleeve, Vladimir.
