[VK] Rostec handed over to the Russian Ministry of Defense the final batch of modernized 2S19M2 Msta-S self-propelled guns, as well as 2S4 Tyulpan self-propelled mortars, which will be completed in 2023, after a major overhaul, the press service of the state corporation reported.
Msta-S howitzers in the 2S19M2 version began to enter service with the troops back in 2013. This modification differs from the basic 2S19 in the more durable and accurate 2A64M2 gun, increased rate of fire (up to 10 rounds per minute) and the presence of an automated fire control system. The self-propelled gun is protected from enemy surveillance devices by the “Cape” kit, which reduces its visibility in the radar and thermal ranges.
Earlier in December, it became known that the first samples of the newest Russian self-propelled gun "Coalition-SV" were sent to the Northern Military District zone. Its serial production began this year. The firing range of a self-propelled gun with a high-explosive fragmentation projectile is 70 kilometers, which significantly exceeds its Western counterparts.
