Among the losses of the Syrian units are self-propelled mortars "Sani"

About a year ago, the Syrian army began to use 120-mm self-propelled mortars made by army craftsmen with battles, writes Messenger of Mordovia.

For the first time such a technique was seen in the area aviation Syrian Air Force Base Tiyas (T4), located between Homs and Palmyra.

“The experts highly appreciated the Syrian home-made product: on the basis of the DongFeng 1065 car, the craftsmen installed the Russian 2B11“ Sani ”mortar, which is in the transport position in the body, says Lev Romanov.

The mass of high-explosive mines -16 kg. The minimum range of fire - 480 m, and the maximum - more than 7 km. Rate of fire: from 10 to 15 shots per minute. Calculation - 4 person.

On a cargo platform of the car containers for transportation of ammunition are mounted. For shooting with a special device, the mortar is mounted on the ground.

In total, there were several such self-propelled units.

“Unfortunately, during the recent battles, the militants managed to seize a couple of such vehicles. True, the cars were damaged and, apparently, the equipment was destroyed on the spot, ”the author notes.

It’s bad that they give technique to capture! So, leave the position! That is, they didn’t really learn how to fight, or they don’t want to fight!

In the Syrian war, losses often later go back as trophies, etc.

Yeah. Fighting and they rushing .. Throw all at the slightest sneeze ..

Duc of all those who knew how to fight, and was motivated, had probably been killed, only the commanders of the tank corps were left alone. As in a joke, the tower was stolen, the engine was drunk, the hull remained. Notice how they are fighting, from the trench, from behind the walls, the machine gun above their heads and shoot in the white light. That's how they fight. ((((

They write -

True, cars got damaged

We were not there, we cannot judge the ATS, as it seems to me

I think the problem of loss of equipment among the Arabs is explained by only one gouging!
They don’t call their tongues cowards, there are enough crazy people with proper handling to sit in a car with full explosives and go to the enemy. Or instead of body armor, put on a suicide belt and go on the attack.
Each ideology has its pros and cons. The minus of the Islamic ideology of warfare is that some people just want to become a martyr. Sometimes this desire is stronger than hatred of the enemy and especially the execution of a military order. When fathers are proud that their sons died, sometimes not even knowing how .
Leave the ideology and move on to what you notice among the Arabs. Lack of discipline at all, nothing we are used to. There is some fear of the officers, but when there is no officer in the vicinity, complete decay, arbitrariness.
This is probably the result of the absence of commanders at the level of the platoon level, the squad replacing them with the oldest, oldest command. And there is arbitrariness, every shepherd is the owner of his convoy. When I see posts where, sitting and lying, smoke a hookah. the officer asks the Chukhman something like a group commander (platoon). "Where are your fighters?" “and they are there in the village” I would ask what the hell are you here? But no one asks the officer why you yourself are not there, of course he does not ask the group commanders.
After watching the videos Anna Nevs, you understand there is a war for a long time.

It all depends on the teachers or methodology, or maybe both of them combined. The Arab Legion, for example, fought very worthily. In flight was not seen.

Well, looking at the Assad fighters, I have big doubts about what is there, at least some kind of training manual.
I don’t particularly follow the IG, for example, you notice in Yemenites how ambushes are set up, the terrain that selects where the machine gunner is located, the ATGM operator moves like arrows to the damaged equipment. Although some preparation is noticed, although they look worse than the Asadovskys, many young, sometimes children.
Sometimes I look at the same Kurds, I saw one operation at a Turkish checkpoint. We approached tightly, even ideally tightly to a hill. The shooting distance was 10 meters in places, there were misses. But the fact itself speaks at least for something.
But the Asad fighters do not leave any impression.
I’m not a supporter of the categorical nature of the war, to take it at all costs or stand to die. I don’t understand this, sometimes it’s better to retreat to give another fight. But you always need to leave ways for a competent retreat so that even flight does not turn into slaughter. Personally, in my humble opinion, competent commanders should take into account all possible confluences. The commander should be an example, show it.
When they were preparing me, companies were running a march with us, a dozen kilometers. The man is not young, but try to refuse contract officers. He said he didn’t give a damn about how much I pull myself, he put 15 easily.
The general at the training ground who came to the test after the shootings. The general said who fulfills the standard perfectly in part returns by car. The remaining march is thrown and continues classes already in the part without rest.
I was a good shooter, the company commander boarded and said. I do not care what the general said, do you agree to go when your comrades run with all the ammunition?
He led the convoy and the whole company in full force, proudly went to the unit. You can go to any ashes for such officers. When he was removed, we refused to carry out the orders of the staff major for three days, then the colonel and then the unit commander.
He was removed and they wanted to punish us, did not sleep and did not leave the parade ground, but stood until they returned our commander.
The army does not rely on generals and staff colonels. The infantry follows captains, lieutenants, etc. IMHO

began to apply with battles

apply in battles ..

[Strashila]

Here’s actually a ready-made technical solution ... without frills ... tested in battle.

[Normal ok]

became the Russian mortar 2Б11 "Sani

Actually, not Russian but Soviet. In my second year I shot from this. And that was at the beginning of the 80's.

[HEATHER]

Apparently, the equipment was destroyed on the spot. Double thinking. I doubt it.

[rumpeljschtizhen]

Our idea with a system for installing a mortar from a body onto the ground (mechanical) ..... (it’s not new) ... of course DO NOT realize!
