The Msta-S self-propelled howitzer is effective on the line of combat contact due to the possibility of loading the gun at any elevation angle in the 360-degree sector and the ability to overcome water obstacles up to 5 m deep and 1000 m wide. This was stated by Rosoboronexport.
The company noted that original mechanisms for feeding projectiles and charges from the ground ensure that the system can fire at a high rate without consuming the carried ammunition. The undeniable advantages are guidance and re-guidance after each shot, as well as high survivability.
Msta-S is a combat vehicle with powerful artillery weapons and excellent driving performance.
