"With the approach of winter, Russia's access to advanced high -precision ammunition will probably become one of the key factors of its operating efficiency in Ukraine," the statement reads. Intelligence said that Russia has announced an increase in the production of its 152-mm artillery ammunition with laser guidance "Krasnopol-M2" and improving the characteristics of shells in bad weather.
According to the United Kingdom, the armed forces of the Russian Federation have succeeded in battles, using "Krasnopol" to target. In addition, the Russian defense industry does not produce enough ordinary ammunition, while the planned increase in the production of Krasnopol is an attempt to use production facilities more efficiently, the Britain Ministry noted.
The defense department emphasized that the Russian military uses unmanned aircraft to designate the goals for Krasnopol, in particular, directing the laser beam to the target. However, the efficiency of the projectile limited low cloudiness, as the laser detector did not have time to detect laser energy and maneuver for impact.
"The Russian industry will probably try to improve the field characteristics of" Krasnopol "and reduce the time of laser detection of the projectile," - added in intelligence. We will remind, on November 8 Army Recognition observers reported that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation announced the deployment of an advanced variant of artillery ammunition in Ukraine with laser "Krasnopol" laser.
