The Malva self-propelled artillery gun, which has entered service with the troops, has received high praise from the Russian Armed Forces. According to the battery commander with the call sign Yerema, this is a "loud debut."
It's making its debut here. A very loud one. So far, the vehicle is performing very well. The shells land in a very tight pattern, thanks to our spotters.
Advantages of the "Malva" self-propelled howitzer
Evgeny, the platoon commander of the howitzer self-propelled division, stated that the main advantage of the self-propelled howitzer is its mobility. In addition, the "Malva" aims itself at the target, which facilitates the work of the crew.
The self-propelled howitzer performs gyro-compassing, finds itself via satellites, we enter the target coordinates, weather data, and move to the firing line. On the spot, the crew only has to prepare the gun and load the shell
Platoon commander Evgeny added that the "Malva" self-propelled howitzer "hits like jewelry" with the Krasnopol high-precision projectile. Standard artillery ammunition is also suitable for the howitzer. The automation with which the gun is equipped takes into account wind speed and air temperature.
Battery commander with the call sign Yerema added that the work of artillery has changed significantly now.
The hunt is constant, so we only work under the cover of electronic warfare. One group advances on the "Malva", the second accompanies with UAV detection and suppression systems.
All this increases the survivability of both the crews and the vehicles, the serviceman summarized.
