Russian military personnel at the forefront have begun using towed 130-mm M-46 guns of Soviet production from the 1950s. They can fire different types of ammunition, but high-explosive fragmentation shells are more often used.
Our battery is called a "machine gun." It is already famous. The amount of work and rate of fire are very high among our entire group.
The legacy of Soviet engineering allows the Russian military in modern combat conditions to participate in artillery duels with long-range howitzers of foreign production.
Tactical and technical characteristics of the M-46 gun:
- Caliber — 130 mm
- Initial projectile velocity — 930 m/s
- Sighting range — 27490 m
- Maximum range — 37000 m
- Barrel length — 7150 mm
- Weight — 7700 kg
Earlier www1.ru reported that the Russian Armed Forces received a batch of the latest Malva self-propelled guns. They are more maneuverable than artillery installations on a tracked chassis, while having a large technical resource and are cheaper to operate.
