The Armed Forces fighters for the first time destroyed the Coxan Exotic Sau from North Korea (video) on the front

The video shows how the Ukrainian drone noticed and identified the target, after which the enemy self -propelled gun was attacked. "We accept the next gunfire of hostile MIC," - the signature under the video. The defeat of the SAU with the DPRK is indicated by the barrel fixation system and the barrel of the system with variable thickness and a characteristic muzzle brake, noted in Defense Express.

In addition, the M-1989 Koksan is inherent in the commander and the driver's mechanic in the frontal part of the SAU Corps. In the thermal imaging they look dark squares. The defeat of the SAU came to the area where the motor-transmission compartment is located, so perhaps Koksan received a lesion of the power plant. In addition, the damage could be obtained by the 170 mm trunk of the system.

This episode, as noted by the authors of Defense Express, reveals a number of disadvantages of the artillery system. Since Coxan cannot be closed traditional for the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation "Brand", it has a convenient to defeat the drones of the zone. In addition, Coxans from the chassis on the basis of Chinese copy of the T-54-Type 59 tank, have relatively low mobility. Coxan is the most long -range barrier artillery system of the Korean People's Army.

The range of firing with a conventional fragmentation projectile is 40 km, and an active-reactive projectile-up to 60 km at a speed of 1-2 shots for 5 minutes. They serve the driver-driver, commander, gunner and five sub-carriers, that is, only 8 people. We will remind, for the first time the CAU "Coxan" on Russian weapons was spotted in October 2024. In December, Focus wrote that in Russia, a train was filmed with dozens of "Coxanov".
