Hit the first shot: the Armed Forces fighters about the difference between FH-70 and Soviet D-30 (photo)

Ukrainian fighters note the excellent accuracy of the gun, which is able to destroy the target with two or three shots, unlike the howitzers of the Soviet production. The self -propelled Howitzer FH70 in the service of defense forces has already established itself on the front line as a fairly accurate weapon.

The 155-mm cannon enables Ukrainian fighters to strike at the enemy at a distance of 7 to 30 km, while there were cases when they lined up the equipment on the move literally from the first shot. The benefits of FH70 in the battlefields were told by fighters of the combat calculation of a separate mechanized brigade in an interview with the correspondent of the ArmyInform. First of all, Ukrainian artillerymen noted the intensity of the fighting and the load they carry on the line of fighting.

According to the senior officer with the call sign "Georgievich", the soldiers have to constantly restrain the enemy's storms. "They used to work more in the morning and in the evening, but now high intensity persists throughout the day," the officer said. He added that there are cases where aero-intelligence transmits several goals in a row, and it is in such situations that the advantage of FH70 over the Soviet systems D-20 and D-30, on which they worked earlier, is manifested.

"Western artillery is distinguished by its accuracy. There have been times when we were trapped from one projectile in a tank that was moving and others were achieved. That is, this gun from two or three shots is quite realistic to destroy the target, unlike D-20 B for one goal of the enemy more than 10 ammunition, " - said" Georgievich ". Of course, the cannon needs careful attitude, care and cleaning after each combat work.

Then the cannon will behave without fail and aptly fire, the officer emphasized. Now the artillery calculation is fighting in the Donetsk direction. They are fighting, destroying armored vehicles and living enemy power. Recently, the calculation managed to stop the enemy column of equipment and completely defeat the dugout, which recorded the accumulation of infantry of the enemy.

"Today is clearly our day! When senior commanders or aero -intelligence officers thank us for our work and tell us about successful development for purposes, then it is certainly motivating and we are ready to work even more and better!" Said the gun commander.
