The newest self-propelled gun 2С42 will replace the Air Force "Nona" and "Waxman"

Model of the newest self-propelled gun 2С42, created for the Airborne Forces as part of the experimental design work (R & D) “Lotus” was presented at the Army-2017 forum held in the Moscow Region, reports Messenger of Mordovia.

Specialists of the Main Missile-Artillery Directorate of the Russian Ministry of Defense familiarized visitors with this development of the exhibition.

According to the report, "120-mm SAO is designed to equip artillery battalions of parachute (assault) regiments and brigades." Also, the machine will come into service artillery regiments of the amphibious divisions.

The main characteristics of the "Lotus":

- Maximum firing range -13 km.
- The minimum firing range - 1 km.
- Aimed rate of fire - 6-8 shots / min.

Tool pointing angles:
- horizontally - 360 hail.
- vertically - from -4 to + 80 hail.

Transfer time from the traveling position and back - 30 seconds.
Mass SAO - 18 t.

Maximum speed:
- on the highway - 70 km / h.
- on the ground - 40 km / h.

Power reserve -500 km

Crew - 4 people.

T / e in the Russian Army are still considering the possibility of mass parachute landing?
PS. So good?

[210ox]

Not in the RA .. And in the Russian Army .., PSVZH you can put it on the "Israel Defense Forces" This is a topic of respect.

Does the RA still consider the possibilities of mass parachute landing?

Don’t swear, Uncle ... I, too, צבא הגנה לישראל do not always capitalize ... This is not out of disrespect ... But Aron singled out ..........

Alex, excuse me .. But why do you have an Orenburger (I hope you are from there .. and with a capital letter) the flag is not from here? Yes, and in principle, let's article .. A good car I hope. Octopus will be a rival ..

Dim, why didn’t you recognize Brother Kolya? Lyokha, IPC 105 ... And come on you, I’m so used to talking with people ... If you can ... Sorry mua, musi-savsem pazabyl-on the banner do not pay any attention, I have a Putin hacker put a few programs ...

What does it have to do with massive parachute landing? There is a planned rearmament art. Airborne brigades.

Really so replace? So far, there is only her model at the exhibition, what will happen to her (and whether it will work at all) - it is not known whether she will like the Moscow Region - all the more, but already - will replace it! Magazines, modest would be necessary! Do not advertise laying!

[Lord of the Sith]

And not only! These art systems are still in the Marine Corps and in the border troops.

[Topotun]

A large country requires mobile units to provide defense for its territories. Try to quickly transfer the aircraft to 6500 km (from Moscow somewhere to the Vladivostok region) .... If you are worried about a possible mass landing on Israel, in vain. Nafik is not necessary ....

massive parachute landing

I will not say about the mass and "landing" after all, nanotechnology but I don’t understand how this tractor can replace the same “Nona”, it’s twice as heavy if you believe “Mordva”

[VAZ2106]

similar to "vein"

[Lopatov]

But it seems not her. With a range finder, a "bucket", in theory, there should be more

[Nicholas C.]

Vienna has a six-wheeled chassis. This one has seven rinks. Like Kurganets. But Kurganets’s larger rollers.

[Lopatov]

The base does not really matter. Opportunities are important. "Vienna" is able to work effectively with a closed OP, and as a direct fire fire support vehicle. Because it is intended for battalion artillery. Here, apparently, a self-propelled gun

[Nicholas C.]

Tool pointing angles:
- vertically - from -4 to + 80 hail.

He looked at the chassis to make sure it was not Vienna.
And the angles of guidance like Vienna. In theory, and should be applied as Vienna.

[Lopatov]

Quote: Nikolai S.

And the angles of guidance like Vienna.

The gun is the same, like ammunition. Large hover angles are more likely for 120 mm min. I don’t see much need to use expensive 122-mm shells with ready-made protrusions for rifling for mortar shooting, when there are mines

[Nicholas C.]

By the way, something else is curious from the picture. Hatches of three crew members not from the tower.
Those. in the AZ tower? Then why the crew - 4 people.
Or now the commander and gunner are sitting with the driver. Is there one loader in BO?

[tchoni]

Honestly: the logic of the designers is horrifying: since it’s self-propelled guns, we make it a tank and tank patterns ((((. Again, the tightness of the fighting compartment. It would be nice if it were compensated by any serious armor ... And so - armor made of plywood and beat in half? Meaning? I don’t see ....

[JD1979]

Ummm ... the meaning of your statement? I don’t see ... They didn’t sit inside, but we condemn. Serious armor on sau? What is this? Combined multilayer plus VDZ and KAZ? So, according to your terrifying logic, you get a tank. It seems to everyone it is known that mortars and howitzers do not work direct fire and that no one and no where doesn’t make anti-ballistic reservations. As well as not putting equipment for quick response units and landing units on heavy tank chassis. And for your ass to be whole, use a pillow.

[Grach-25sm]

The fire support tool is just for the Airborne Forces, the Marine Corps, the Border Guards, as well as for light brigades. It would be interesting to see how self-propelled guns or SAO? The Lotus would interact with that pickup truck with an automated Zushka in the back. Samum, it seems? ..
The only range is small - only 13 kilometers. Such an installation would be about twenty km reactive-reactive, with satellite guidance, and with an expanded nomenclature (cumulative, armor-piercing, concrete-fragmentation high-explosive, actively reactive long-range, shrapnel and cluster with programmable trajectory detonation, volume-detonating). That would be nice. Another question - do they want to make Lotus airborne / floating ?.
