A photo of the modernized PTH-130 mod.2025 self-propelled artillery unit in service with the Vietnamese army has gone viral on social networks. The system is installed on the chassis of a four-axle KamAZ-6560 all-terrain vehicle of Russian production.
As is clear from the name, the combat vehicle is armed with a long-range 130-mm M-46 gun of the 1953 model. The cab of the all-terrain vehicle has been reinforced and additionally protected with armor from shrapnel and bullets.
