The Russian defense complex is ready for mass production of the SPG 'Coalition-SV', which has technical characteristics that will help domestic artillery surpass the Western one.
Earlier, military analysts noted that the Russian barrel artillery is inferior to the guns used by NATO countries. An officer of the 1st Army Corps claimed that Russian servicemen do not have many guns that can compete with 155 mm Western howitzers. Among them, he called SPG 'Malka'.
However, the 'Coalition-SV' is pinned with great hopes. The thing is that the rate of fire of the weapon is more than 10 shots per minute, which is a record for self-propelled guns. The firing range is up to 70 km. Besides, the system is automated, it is compared to a combat robot in Rostec. The shooting is controlled by a crew of 3 people, they are in a separate armored capsule.
The turret of the SPG carries a full round of 70 rounds. A special ammunition has been developed for the self-propelled gun, with which this high firing range is achieved. It is known that the Russian defense industry needs to promptly set up the production of shells for the 'Coalition-SV'. Information about when the serial production of the SPG itself will begin is kept secret.
