The work of the mortar 2B9 "Vasilek" in a mobile version is shown

Mortar 2B9 is shown «Vasiluk» in mobile versionRussian artillery throughout the entire period of the special operation is the main means of defeating the enemy. In this regard, Western strategists, in charge of the Armed Forces, attach particular importance to equipping the Ukrainian army with counter-battery weapons.

In particular, the supply of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with AN / TPQ-36 radars was put on stream. In its latest modification, these radars are capable of detecting firing positions, located in the frontline zone. So, the position of the howitzers is determined at a depth of up to 15 km, MLRS - up to 24 km, mortar - do 18 km. Enemy drones also play a big role in detecting artillery..

The risk of falling under enemy return fire forces artillerymen to look for ways to quickly change position., especially if they work on targets from the front line. In the 110th brigade of the Donetsk Corps, the mobility of the calculation of 2B9 "Vasilyok" was increased by installing a gun on the platform of a truck.

As they approach the firing position, the gunners prepare an 82-mm mortar for firing, uncovering and bringing the weapon into combat position, setting up sighting equipment and taking out ammunition cassettes.

We work as quickly as possible, because they are after us- explains the calculation, consisting of only two people, except for the driver.

The mortar successfully worked on targets, previously detected by drones in the Nevelskoye area (West Sand), after which he left the position, avoiding, thanks to its mobility, the enemy's ability to strike back.
