10 self-propelled guns "Hyacinth-S" received military air defense

More than 10 self-propelled artillery mounts (SAU) "Giatsint-S" replenished the fleet of artillery armament of the military association of the Eastern Military District (VVO), stationed in the Amur region. In the near future, even more 20 installations are expected here, the press service of the military district reports.

152-millimeter SAU "Hyacinth-S" is a long-range gun capable of hitting targets at a distance of up to 33 km. ACS "Hyacinth-S" on a tracked chassis has light armor protection, high maneuverability and powerful weapons, can shoot, both from closed positions, and direct fire. The gun has a unique muzzle brake, which absorbs more than 50% recoil energy when firing.

SAU "Giatsint-S" is designed to destroy open and sheltered personnel, weapons and military equipment of the enemy.

Mass production began in the year 1976. Self-propelled gun made by reckless scheme. The welded armored hull provides anti-bullet and splinter protection for the crew and internal equipment. The bulldozer equipment for self-digging and a folding base plate are hung on the case. The power plant is a multi-fuel diesel with water cooling.

you give "genocide" (that's what the troops call them) to all the districts and more!
news +

[Lopatov]

But who needs this junk?

Give 2S19M2 to the level of motorized rifle brigades and "Coalition-SV" to the artillery brigades!

[Tambov we ...]

Yes, it seems, and not a special junk, as you put it. A normal tool for front-line confrontations, which no one has yet canceled, despite the fashionable high-precision local operations.

[Lopatov]

It is precisely for modern "front-line confrontations" that it is not suitable. However, for local wars, too, not particularly in the mountains and settlements, it can be used with great restrictions.

I think Geocynth has replaced even older systems. So the news is positive. And soon you will see that the new technique "will catch up ...

[Lopatov]

And it was replaced by a much more efficient 2C19. Which, by the way, is constantly being modernized. Unlike "Genocide", which was stuck in its time.

[Fortnite]

GIVE !!! Power!

[Lopatov]

You are using outdated data. "Coalition-SV" has one barrel. The double-barreled was an experimental vehicle, which was abandoned.

Yes there photo! what a welcome news! By May 9, a present, so to speak!

10 self-propelled guns from a warehouse, Russian Ground Forces - 950 2С5 units, of which 800 are in storage, now means 790

[waisson]

a gift so a gift more often and more and a variety of such gifts

[Lopatov]

If such "gifts" are included in the system, then this is not good. It is necessary to re-equip the artillery in service with the 2S19 to bring it to the level of M2, and not capitalize and send outdated weapons to the troops.

Hyacinth-S taming guns.

I myself shot from Hyacinth-b, generally super.

[rennim]

The 2S5 self-propelled guns, of course, is already morally obsolete more than 10 years ago. I served in such a place in 1998 and even then it was considered obsolete. The artillery unit itself is quite good and easy to operate. Chassis arr. 1946 from an experienced self-propelled guns is also very outdated and quite capricious in operation. Repairing the engine and systems in the field is rather difficult, but possible (a leaky engine oil tank is replaced only by removing the engine itself) In case of hydraulic problems (oil pump failure, etc.) firing a gun from closed positions is not possible. Because the base plate must not be lowered. In general, the machine corresponds to T.T.H. for the 70s. It is interesting in that it is capable of shooting tactical YaB. Delivery in parts can be fully justified because of their sufficient number. Although in 1998 in the Moscow Military District there was one single artillery brigade in 2C5. Apart from the individual divisions ... Although, however, at the moment the brigade has been disbanded.

[xetai9977]

has long been outdated. it is necessary to do it already at the level of the German "Donar" and the Swedish "Archer", which ALREADY broke out on the hull forward, and the Germans and Swedes also gathered to modernize them

[Lopatov]

And what did they break out of? The only advantage over 2C19M2 is modular charges. Moreover, the advantage is temporary.

[Petergut]

Arta 20 leveled.

[Genoezec.]

Self-propelled gun made by reckless scheme.

[Don]

It is not clear why Msta-S could not be delivered.

[Don]

Why it was impossible to deliver Msta-S. Hyacinth-S is still an obsolete self-propelled gun.

[krpmlws]

Self-propelled guns are sent to the Amur region. There and it is normal. Cheap and cheerful. Although, of course, new art systems need to be developed and produced.

[Perchik]

Cheap and cheerful is the most important moment in this news :)
It’s a pity for the soldiers .... they probably simply have cast-iron after firing ....

TTX "Hyacinth-S"
The 152-mm self-propelled gun 2S5 "Hyacinth-S" is designed to destroy open and sheltered enemy personnel, weapons and military equipment. Serial production began in 1976. The self-propelled gun is made according to a reckless scheme. The welded armored hull provides anti-bullet and anti-fragmentation protection for the crew and internal equipment. Self-digging bulldozer equipment and a folding base plate are hung on the body. The power plant is a water-cooled multi-fuel diesel engine.
The semi-automatic 2A37 gun is equipped with a slotted muzzle brake. The ammunition of the gun includes shots of separate-shell loading with high-explosive shells. Sights consist of a mechanical sight D726-45 with a gun panorama PG-1M and an optical sight OP4M-91A. When firing, the gunner is outside the armored corps. A 7,62 mm PKT machine gun was installed on the commander’s cupola.

With the coalition-sv it is unclear whether it will go into series at all, but Msta-S or SAO 2S25 "Sprut" ... why they buy outdated equipment if there are good modern developments

We would compare the characteristics of art systems to begin with. Moreover, the Octopus with its 125 mm, a small elevation angle in general in this topic are not mentioned.
