        The result of an art duel is difficult to fix with an UAV. The batteries after the volley try to leave the position, the next volley from another place. You need to know where to take the drone. Only from satellite. But the vidocq is not the same.

          The Khmeimim airbase in Syria received a Tu-214R radio-technical and optoelectronic reconnaissance aircraft, The Aviationist blog reports citing Flightradar24 data.

          According to the blog, the plane flew on February 15 from Kazan to the Russian air base in Syrian Latakia.

          Tu-214R is a radio-technical and optoelectronic reconnaissance aircraft, created on the basis of the passenger Tu-214 to replace the Il-20. The aircraft is equipped with multi-frequency radio complex MRK-411 with radar stations of side and all-round visibility, as well as the Fraction high-resolution optical-electronic system.

          The aircraft was built by order of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the General Staff of the RF Armed Forces at the Kazan Aircraft Plant.

            Yes, and not enough art for a full-fledged art duel. When the small battery is working, the gunners will be in soap. Although they shoot at long distances, it means that the probability of an answer is less and you can shoot longer. But no one canceled the change of position.

          That's for sure! The device is proven, reliable since 1987 in production, range up to 29000m. When firing a high-explosive fragmentation shell of the latest generation, the firing range is 24000 meters, and when using OFS with a gas generator, the firing range increases to 29 meters. A new type of ammunition is a container that scatters tiny radio transmitters designed to interrupt enemy communications. In addition, from the howitzer 000A2 you can shoot an armor-piercing adjustable projectile with laser guidance "Krasnopol".
          We will see !.

            I studied the first shot to 2A65 "Krasnopol" ("Krasnopolye") 30 years ago at a military school, then served as a military officer and all this time "Krasnopol" was HE shell, never heard of armor-piercing rounds for 2A65 Krasnopol. Now I have not served for a long time, maybe I have fallen behind. I ask you to tell who knows what kind of armor-piercing projectile "Krasnopol" is, maybe they put a cumulative warhead, the steel core is useless, at such long distances the speed is not the same.

        We take a compass, draw a circle with a firing range of 24,7 km, circle it in red, it turns out - a "red line" for the attackers.

        "152-mm howitzer" Msta-B "(GRAU index - 2A65, according to NATO classification - M1987) - Russian / Soviet towed 152-mm howitzer, which is in service with the armed forces of some countries of the former USSR, is designed to destroy tactical means of nuclear attack, artillery and mortar batteries, tanks and other armored vehicles, destruction of field fortifications and other defensive structures, suppression of manpower and fire weapons, command posts, anti-aircraft and anti-missile defense.

        To ensure automated fire control of artillery divisions armed with towed Msta-B howitzers, the Falsett and Kapustnik complexes were developed.

        The howitzer is in service with the Armed Forces of Russia and several CIS countries.

        Msta-S can use several types of high-explosive and active-rocket shells, cluster munitions, as well as a number of guided and adjusted shells. You can also fire special ammunition, which is used to set communications interference. The self-propelled guns can use Krasnopol-M1 guided projectiles for firing, which are guided by a laser beam.

I understand that the appearance of GPS on cars saves our friends and partners from studying geography, but it does not get rid of lies. The headline announced that Msta howitzers had been spotted near Palmyra, and the report indicated that they had been spotted near Latakia. But these are completely different places, the distance from Palmyra to Latakia is about 500 km. So, you would have decided at least where you saw "Mstu", gentlemen, or fear has big eyes, they say, either in Palmyra, or in Latakia, what's the difference, the main thing is that you saw somewhere - Russians are coming.

    What do our intelligence systems need? - Find the sources of shelling of our positions (in Syria) and immediately "close" them. - Only!

    The same is in politics. And statements about international law and "partners" are dust in the eyes

    While the other side can not oppose anything, it’s dust, but as soon as a worthy adversary appears, then this international law again becomes in demand, and negotiations begin! soldier

    We must still arm the Kurds. Brave militant people and know what they are fighting for .. We must provide them with weapons.

    It is very short-sighted to arm anybody.

    Obviously, ours are preparing to repulse the attack of a very serious enemy. IG retreat, and the enemies decided to let the Turks into action.

    Hmm ... also, a sensation ... All the samples sought by Syria are supplied now and are intensively used by the army of this state. Now, if "Iskander-M" was in the frame or "Coalition" - then yes, it would be possible to say about the participation of our army in the ground phase of the war.

    these are the Kurds “anywhere”))) at present they are our ally against Turkey and the most important thing is that we have no contradictions with the United States regarding these same Kurds
