    Msta would have a cannon, so that it would hit 50-55 kilometers, and then she would not have a price ...

      Andrei - maybe we need not a super-gun, but shells with such a flight range? That is why our actively-reactive shells fly a shorter distance than NATO? Here is the problem that needs to be addressed.

        The problem is simple as the world ... we have gunpowder of worse quality than Western ones. I already wrote about this.

            They talked about this 2 years ago ... and where is this gunpowder? As well as flax-based gunpowder ... our guns, small arms, etc. are no worse than the western one, and even better by an hour, but we lose as gunpowders, which resets all the attempts of our gunsmiths.

              Do we have a problem with the quality of gunpowder? like gunpowder is the same, only ours do not take a steam bath with its molding ...
              Anyway, what for do you need an AU with a range of 50km? I don’t mind, but at such a range, the spread of shells will be greater, and in the end it will turn out to be more profitable to use MLRS ...

                We have a very serious problem regarding the quality of gunpowder. And domestic gunpowder is worse than western.

        Here is the problem that needs to be addressed.

        First of all, it is necessary to solve the problem with modern automated control systems, combat information systems that provide real-time information, etc.
        What is the use of new guns and shells when it is not clear where to shoot?

    Stop talking about the Coalition and Armata, for a very long time they will be small-scale models for parades and exhibitions.

    Extraordinary power is hidden in Mst, it was personally seen when the cantons showed their technique to foreigners. Our observation platforms were adjacent and among all the variety of equipment this self-propelled gun always stood out, in my opinion, --- from what angle you would not look at the solarium built and burning from the rubbed Russian technology, but its 152 mm powerfully directed forward surely fascinated my attention. Unfortunately, the Tarnopoles did not see how they shoot from these self-propelled guns, but sometimes, apart from tank firing, a more powerful hoot also spread around them. I believe that it was she who shot, Msta.

    I do not agree ....
    our developments are better .... another thing is that production technologies went west .... back in the 80s, the states bought AK cartridges from Afghans ... but they could not achieve such a "long-range" for their M-16s .... and now you can buy everything .... and the mattress budget is more solid, do not spare money on promotion and new developments
