In the Russian Federation crossed BTR-82 and "Schilka": the car has to fight with drones (photo)

The armored personnel carrier was equipped with two 23 mm guns and optical-electronic equipment to knock out objects in the air. At one of the exhibitions of weapons in the Russian Federation showed a sample of anti-aircraft self-propelled installation, which was built on the basis of BTR-82. About it reports Defense Express. On the BTR-82 chassis, two anti-aircraft guns 2A7 were installed from the AFS-23-4 "Schilka". Such a machine should help the occupiers fight drones.

It will be possible to control the fire on the anti-aircraft installation with the help of optical-electronic equipment of the NTC "Elinsa", which is based in the Moscow region. Most characteristics are not revealed, so it is unknown: so the authors suggest that the standard "sail" shooting range is 2. 5 km. Therefore, given the 2A7 trunks resource, the range will hardly be increased.

BTR-82 in the performance of anti-aircraft self-propelled article can mean two points: in the Russian Federation they still cannot bring to the production of "derivation-PPO", which has been in the research stage for 6 years. Homemade UAV machines, type MT-LB with 2m-3 ships, will try to replace with a factory BTR-82 with guns from "Shilka". We will remind, on June 25 the media wrote that Germany will hand over 45 to the Armed Forces of Ukraine by the end of the year.
