The Armed Forces have been captured by this anti -aircraft gun in Balaklius and have been used against the Russian army. The CS-19 anti-aircraft gun was created immediately after the end of World War II. It was used in the Korean and Vietnamese wars, and now it is doing its work in the war against Russia. It is served by five people: a gunner, two charging and drivers. It beats a vintage gun for 15 km, but Ukrainian soldiers say they hit the target even at a distance of 20 km.

Well, I think, in three years we have earned something from the state.
