Self-propelled gunners of the Southern Military District received the latest modification of self-propelled guns - 2С19М2 "Msta-S"

More than 35 modernized 152-mm self-propelled howitzers 2С19М2 "Msta-S" were the first to receive the gunners of the motorized rifle brigade of the Southern Military District (SOR), stationed in the Stavropol Territory.

According to the Press Service of the Southern Military District, all commanders of howitzer self-propelled artillery batteries of the compound in order to improve their skills and professional training were retrained to this artillery system at the factory.

New artillery system 2C19М2 "Msta-S" has significant design differences from the previous modification. The upgraded self-propelled howitzers installed a new automated fire control system, increased target rate of fire, and also has the ability to use digital electronic maps, which significantly speeds up the orientation of the terrain in difficult physiographic conditions and allows you to perform fire tasks more quickly and more efficiently.

Also, to reduce the visibility of self-propelled artillery on the battlefield, the Cape kit is used, which, in combination with heat shields, allows you to simultaneously increase protection from radar, thermal and optical detection by more than 1,5 times, resulting in a decrease in the effectiveness of high-precision weapons.

The MSTA-S highly mobile armored self-propelled artillery installation is designed to destroy openly located and protected targets (manpower, armored and unarmored combat equipment, field fortifications, anti-aircraft and anti-missile defenses, enemy control points and rear facilities).

Great news. Only why it is impossible to specify exact numbers, otherwise it can be 50 pieces and 350

[Vladimirets]

The work of the loader, of course, is hellish.

Batteries always took guys strong, hardy ...

[Wedmak]

Can't an automated combat pack be pushed in there?

[kind]

She is there, just in peacetime they charge from the ground.

[Lopatov]

Always charge from the ground. Even with full conveyors.
Ammunition is fired only when it is impossible to quickly deliver ammunition and lay them on the ground. For example, when receiving fire missions on the march. Or when the enemy is engaged in an active counter-battery fight.

[Wedmak]

I’ve seen it from the ground, but what’s manually loading from the ammunition rack has caused confusion. Yes, even so famously throws a meter down a charge.
So, it turns out save the resource of the automatic loader?

[Lopatov]

Rather, the coordinator was covered (yellow unit on 3.06 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jL12giMvhn4).
The system is quite old and not always maintained as it should. Some of the two wars reeled off with all the consequences

[leon-iv]

yes xs at these units M2 which everything should work normally it seems direct from the factory.

[Lopatov]

Then another thought came to me: most likely the coordinator was turned off due to a woodpecker with a large camera sitting inside

[Wedmak]

Optionally, modern compact cameras can be fastened with tape anywhere. The size of these cameras is slightly larger than the fist, and the quality is quite acceptable - HD, FULL HD.
Z.Y. An ordinary photo mirror in HD takes pictures.

[Lopatov]

It is possible, but I am inclined to believe that the "star" operator got there with a large

[leon-iv]

HD is the quality of the matrix
But the laws of optics can not be redone. Good cameras are still rather big.

[Wedmak]

But the laws of optics can not be redone. Good cameras are still rather big.

I do not argue. And most of the volume of these cameras falls on bulky and heavy optics from drop dead expensively illuminated glass.
But the same "Zvezda" mounts small cameras on combat aircraft, and the image quality is very good.

[leon-iv]

it should not be confused, they use it there type GOOPro. there, although a good matrix, but optics is generally shit else.

[Joker]

Picture seen with GOuPro? Better than on those cameras (professional) that our television people use. The only thing where I saw really great cameras was the dock filming. the film is called Special Forces, the rest of the camera is fuzzy.

and why? Does he, a woodpecker with a camera, interfere with his work physically? Or can’t his work be shown to the media?

[Lopatov]

Coordinator is a conventional manipulator with one degree of freedom. There is nothing secret in him. But it can catch a robust

[Lopatov]

She is. Just doesn't seem to work. Manually manually charge only the charge.

[ramsi]

and several shells at once in one target - can it?

[Lopatov]

It depends on the range and fitness of the loader.

Such shooting is a fashionable thing, it is used in all foreign videos. But no one says that this is possible only when shooting at long ranges

[Wedmak]

But no one says that this is possible only when shooting at long ranges

A person using his brain for its intended purpose will understand. And the agitprom zombies will do anything for anything.

[Lopatov]

Physics in the volume of eight years old must be known.

[ramsi]

that is, the calculation of charges, trajectories and aiming the barrel are possible, but everything depends on the agility of the loader?

[Lopatov]

If such a task had been set, this type of shooting would have been possible even from the Soviet unmodified 2C19.

[Wedmak]

What about the effectiveness of this type of shooting? It looks beautiful of course ...

[Lopatov]

There are many nuances.
If you try to reduce the number of guns firing at a target in this way, then not really. Probability cannot be fooled. 4 out of 4 guns is more accurate than 4 out of one.
If the whole battery or division shoots like this, then it’s effective: less time to hit the target is safer for the gunners themselves, you can quickly take off the fire. And the effect itself from the simultaneous detonation of a large number of shells is higher.

[Wedmak]

everything rests on the agility of the loader

and range of the affected object, i.e. flight time.

[ramsi]

guys, do not talk about "if only, range, and brains with physics" - say "yes" or "no" ...

[Wedmak]

And you were told yes. But it is still worth clarifying the terms of this "Yes".

[ramsi]

Judging by the place of work of the loader, most likely "no"

[Lopatov]

I agree, modular charges are better. But for now, there is what is. "Coalition" does not know when else will go to the troops

[ramsi]

Thank you, I guess that without a full automatic loader, such a trick is possible, rather, theoretically, and then with 2-3 shells. And how did it happen that, having such a practice of designing automatic loaders, they didn’t master it here (if only because the caliber is large and the shells are heavy)?

[Lopatov]

The problem is that we do not have modular charges

[ramsi]

so, does the soldier put his bags of gunpowder into the shells with his hands, or is there some kind of fixed charge?

[Lopatov]

The fighter takes out the lid and pulls out extra tufts of gunpowder, then inserts the lid into place

[ramsi]

Well, of course, although loading the projectile itself could be mechanized

[Lopatov]

The loading of the projectile itself is fully mechanized. Moreover, the loading mechanism remembers the type of projectile, and casts exactly what is required.

But here, not everything is simple. So you can shoot only at the factory settings. If otherwise required, it takes time to manually spec. made shell keys. So, electronic fuses and remote input devices are needed. We have both, but so far it’s not going to the army

[ramsi]

Tell me, here’s another theoretical question: if the charge in the sleeve is maximum, can this be compensated by the elevation angle of the gun, or does the board (in the sense of resource) become excessive?

[Lopatov]

Not just a resource. Higher trajectory - less accuracy. Plus the impossibility of firing ricochets. So the board is really excessive.

[ramsi]

sorry, less accuracy - is it because the projectile is longer in the air? (I mean, longer - how next)

[Lopatov]

And from what is longer, and from what is higher.
For example, the error due to the unaccounted deviation of the projectile weight will be the greater, the longer it flies.
But the same errors in determining the correction for wind not only last longer. The higher the trajectory, the greater the likelihood of error in determining the effect of wind on the projectile
This is so, in a simple way. Without going into the jungle of probability theory and error theory.

A decrease in accuracy in artillery is "cured" simply by increasing the consumption of shells on the target.

[ramsi]

is shooting on ricochets for such a system not too "exotic"?

[Lopatov]

Shooting on ricochets is used by all of our barrel art. systems other than mortars. If conditions allow. Effective air blast with a contact fuse, much cheaper than a remote or radio fuse

[ramsi]

thanks, got it. It’s just me that directing such artillery systems to direct fire ... Or didn’t I understand something?

[Lopatov]

Artillery applies ricocheting to fire only with closed fire.

[ramsi]

then I don’t understand. And then what are the angles of encounter with the earth? From closed, yes mounted? ..

[Lopatov]

I honestly don't remember. In artillery it is simpler - in the firing tables for each charge, the range of ranges at which a ricochet is possible is indicated. Big P in the margin.

[Basilevs]

To get a rebound, you need a meeting angle of up to 20 degrees on ground targets, and up to 10 - on surface targets. There will be more - there will be no rebound.

[cdrt]

There is, but I don’t actually go to the troops - this is not.
More accurately describes the real life in the army.
And then ... like K. Prutkov - a collection of unfinished.

[Lopatov]

Quote: cdrt

A little goes. How many "Tornado-G" were there in the troops of the Southern Military District? They have an induction data entry system.

[Basilevs]

Forgive me generously, gentlemen, if suddenly someone does not like my opinion. And its essence is as follows. On the video - a NEW (albeit not very) 2C19 M1 with the ASUNO 1V168 system. Ammunition on it (as in all previous 2C19) is automated. The shooting time is not long ago, the calculation in pixel form is dressed. And the conclusion from here is this. The new car was killed, and the calculation carries out charging in duplication mode. ASUNO does not work, half of the buttons have already fallen out and the doorway .. oh, lost. They mock the machine and ruin the materiel by dropping shells weighing 43 kg onto the cartridge case.
The work of the loader is not at all hellish if the commander and crew have enough brains and a desire to keep the car in order. 2S19 rate of fire in short-term series (up to 10 shots) - 5 seconds a shot, or 12 shots per minute. I declare this with full responsibility, I shot personally and repeatedly. It is quite capable of hanging several shells on a trajectory, but at this level of ASUNO such a task is absent in its software. Maybe in 2S19M2 there is, I don’t know this. I know one thing - if the control system is disabled, and even without buttons, if the loading mechanism does not work as usual - you can shoot only as in this video. Personally, I would be ashamed to spread such a shame at all.

This conclusion is made because this ASUNO is placed precisely on 2C19M1, which, in particular, came into the unit in July - August last year, and which no further than last November I thoughtfully climbed and studied. quote = Lopatov] And what does the work of the coordinator have to do with ASUNO?

If it stands, then the system is new. If the coordinator does not work, then it means a fault. [

[runway]

Bravo! It's nice to listen to reasoned explanations.

[_CAMOBAP_]

Calculations, it, of course, is an important matter. It is only necessary to take into account that the projectile flies to a long range for quite a long time - several tens of seconds, depending on the range, the charge used and the chosen trajectory. And atmospheric factors alone - which are constant. albeit insignificantly, the changes ultimately make a rather significant contribution to the deviation from the calculated point.

[awerkiev]

Such news is very nice to read! There is confidence in tomorrow!

There are no "heavy" ones yet. So it's more like three divisions. Due to the low traffic capacity of the roads in the mountains, the divisions in the very south of Russia are twelve-gun.
And rather, such a technique will be put into the art there. brigade. New "Chrysanthemums" went there. And they have experience in mastering new technology.

Interesting news. How much does Msta hit now? And 35 cars are almost two divisions, if they have 18 pieces each.

[Lopatov]

The shells are old, so most likely at the same range. The update primarily concerns informatization.

[Flooding]

Modernization to the level of 2S19M2 by ORK "Dilemma-2" also provides for the installation of new 2A64M2 howitzers with higher tactical and technical data. In particular, the rate of fire should increase to 10 rounds per minute (in any case, Khlopotov names such a figure). If this is the same version with a 52 caliber barrel length, then the range will definitely increase. But there is already no intelligible information.
So it's not just about electronic stuffing ...

[Lopatov]

Rate of fire can be significantly increased by automatic recovery of aiming both vertically and horizontally. And that means it is in electronics.

About 2S19M2 a lot of things were written, up to the use of modular charges. We will see.

[Flooding]

Quote: Spade

Good, Shovels.

And he did not claim that electronics is not able to increase the effectiveness of fire.
But I just repeat that upgrading to 2S19M2 provides for the installation of a new howitzer. So understandable?

Quote: Flood

- Is 2A64M2 worth it?

And since when does the rate of fire depend on the trunk? Are you hinting at its survivability? So an increase from 8 to 10 will not affect

Previously, they restored the aiming horizontally manually (the gunner looked into the panorama and guided the crosshair to the aiming point with the horizontal aiming mechanism), now it’s automatic. Feel the difference.

It's about practical rate of fire. The technical can only be increased with a new loading mechanism.

[Basilevs]

Automatic recovery of the vertical aiming was on all 2C19 from the earliest who entered the troops. Horizontal-already on the latest samples.

[Basilevs]

And who set such a smart minus ?? I honestly do not care, but is it not true ??

Oh, and I was tormented with this thing. Yes, and I don’t have faith that ASUNO will work in this team. In my memory, only two organizations were able to master this system a little (99 at Korolkov and 385 at Petrov) Everyone who doesn’t like my thought - try to find out how many divisions with ASUNO are in the Armed Forces of our country, how many were there, how many worked and are working now. When you are horrified - then appreciate my post. In general, the information is positive.

Crews will never learn in the current term of service ... Officers do not need this, because they will never be released from this organization for good knowledge ... The software is raw ...

just do not need such loud phrases and generalizations. I don’t remember anything like that. Technical condition 2C19, which came to the unit in 1993, was excellent; Most of the breakdowns and malfunctions are due to insufficient preparation of calculations. Objectively, there were technical flaws, what do you want from the new system. But even in the second campaign, non-new cars by that time did not have such a percentage of breakdowns.

Well, that's all ... after replacing a pair of "leather" jackets, they eliminated a lot themselves, the main thing is to know the materiel and have hands from the right place.

But this, sorry, kink, and, more simply, nonsense. I have been closely communicating with it for eight years since the system arrived at the armament of the regiment, I personally shot more than one ammunition and repaired it with my own hands, so no need to la. Without denying the flaws, I will never bite the MH.

[Constantine]

I wonder who will be the first to begin to speak seriously that 35 is small, 350 is needed. Are the polymers lost, etc.? )))

Good news. However, I believe that it is time to come to grips with new ammunition for all types of equipment. I saw somewhere an article about the excellent high-precision cannon shells of our development. The weapon is certainly good, but what it shoots with is also not unimportant. Author +, cheered up :)

I will say. Artillery is being updated at a snail's pace. And only in Southeast Russia.

[Constantine]

Then I will repeat what I said not so long ago. After the economy destroyed in the 90s, as well as with our present capabilities, the amount for rearmament was allocated almost limit. Much needs to be restored, and in some areas the calculation is aimed at promising weapons, which will be relevant for a long time and will exceed the total mass of standard weapons, such as the T-50 and Armata. I don’t think that we know about all the developments and the stage of their readiness, and therefore, I would not criticize the calculation of the Ministry of Defense in terms of quantity since we do not have enough information to fully analyze the situation and prospects.

South-West Military District is arming, primarily because it is an explosive region.

[Lopatov]

Do you know that in our troops there are weapons of 1937 for adoption? Name at least one kind or type of troops where the situation is similar. Even the traditionally technologically backward infantry has the oldest model - BMP-1

[Constantine]

Everything needs to be done consistently and carefully.
Regarding the BMP, a promising machine, which, as far as I know, is planned to replace the BMP - Kurganets-25. You can read about it here - http://topwar.ru/29165-kurganmashzavod-uzhe-etoy-osenyu-vypustit-novuyu-boevuyu-
mashinu-pehoty-kurganec-25.html

Regarding the fact that our infantry is riding a BMP-1, you forgot to mention that in addition to the BMP-1 in service, in 2012, there were 720 BMP-3s, as well as 5000 BMP-2s, of which up to 2000 thousand. in storage. This is a land military. Another about 150 BMP-2 from the Marines and some in the explosives.

As for BMP-1, there were 2012 of them in 8000, of which 7000 were in storage. Hence the conclusion that, despite the presence of BMP-1 in the ranks, the basis of the active fleet of such vehicles is BMP-2, and the number of BMP-3s that are in operation does not reach the number of BMP-1s in the same state.

About 1937 did not hear. I would appreciate examples. Interesting to read.

[Lopatov]

And what does Kurganets have to do with it?

But about artillery, the oldest model is the ML-20 model of 1937. And not in storage, in the troops. About a hundred pieces.

[Constantine]

Kurganets - promising BMP. As I said, emphasis, in my opinion, needs to be done on promising technology. The same BMP-3 - technology of the late XX century. The Russian army, given the fact that in terms of military technology we are at the forefront, should be equipped with the best that the genius of our design idea can offer. Many say that you need BMP-3, T-90 and more. Of course it is necessary, but it will become obsolete much earlier than what we can get in 3-4 years. Why, in 3-4 years, put your army in a known worse situation, if the most advanced equipment is already on the way and is in the metal. Given the approach to the Rogozin case, the cars will arrive, with a high degree of probability, at the appointed time. If you spend money now on the same BMP-3, then for Kurganets, for example, there will be no money left, and then after a couple of years, you will say that he is Kurganets, and our infantry is using the backward BMP-3 technology.

As for the ML-20, this is a gun, which, against the background of the same self-propelled guns, is as simple as a stool and can be transported by trailer to the same Urals. The same art installations, which are simple and mobile, are present not only with us. If it is able to fulfill the goals for which it is intended, effectively, then why should it be written off? Only in order to replace with a similar unit, but with a more pathos look? Army is not a fashion show. This is where practicality and fault tolerance are important. The ML-20 battery, which is capable of breaking through armor up to 30 mm with fragments, is quite capable of cooling the enemy’s ardor, and its portability, simplicity and reliability give it the right to serve properly in the 21st century. Cheap and cheerful, in many ways.

Sorry if it's rude, but is it worth it to look at the situation from a neutral position?

[Lopatov]

Quote: Constantine

The same art installations that are simple and mobile.

ML-20 is simple and mobile? She has a transfer time from traveling to combat - 7 minutes 45 seconds for five points. And for "the same artillery mounts" of probable friends, and even for the late Soviet ones - 2-3 minutes.
Mobility? The 155-mm towed М777 weighs 4.3 tons - it can be transferred by a medium helicopter on an external sling. Our analogue, 2A65 Msta-B - 7 tons. Only "Cow" Mi-26

Quote: Constantine

Right This is war. During which the fire must be removed no more than one and a half to two minutes. And so ML-20 is a one-time thing.

I read the comments of "experts". Thanks for the fun. The most interesting thing is that those who are simply interested in the problem of automatic loading of this weapon ask the correct question: "why is this fighter puffing up and loading manually when a machine gun is provided?" And the casket just opened - the crew was not prepared. Officers do anything but their own business. For automatic loading, you need to distribute the shells and charges in the ammunition rack and enter these data into the on-board computer. This is not something they do in this unit, but just like a hundred years ago they charge from the ground with modern technology ...
On practice shooting, when one shot is fired in half an hour, this can still work, but in other conditions, when it is necessary to maintain a given rate of fire, any "pumped up" loader on the second dozen shells is blown away ... Draw conclusions.
And getting new equipment in the troops is a holiday. With which I congratulate the brothers in arms.

If the crew, with the non-working coordinator and the absence of shells (for which the gun commander works, bending backward), began sending shells and charges manually with a doselik, then yes, one could speak of unpreparedness.

And here is a wonderful work in emergency mode. It seems that you do not understand anything in the self-propelled guns that you have on the icon.

On practice shooting, when one shot is fired in half an hour, this can still work, but in other conditions, when it is necessary to maintain a given rate of fire, any "pumped up" loader in the second dozen shells is blown away ...

Something did not inspire and delight me. The dimensions are large, the loading is "semi-automatic", the firing range is not great, the accuracy is cold. General assessment: Outdated "Samovar", WWII times, and up to the 60s.
