Ukrainian Soldiers Spill Hard Truth About Western Artillery

Which Western self-propelled artillery do you think has made the biggest impact? Share your thoughts!

Archer seems to be very effective in Ukraine!

Ukraine war is become massive western weaponry advertising.

But the truth is the majority of Ukrainian artillery is still Soviet designs, same stuff as Russia is using.

Infomercial

End rusian cage tanks 2022 are also ....bla bla

Numbers. There's not enough of it (esp. ammo) to go around. That is the main problem with Western artillery in Ukraine's arsenal.

PzH2000 downtime isn't a suprise. Its the best system out there and therefore its used to its limits and above them. The ukrainians fire more rounds with a barrel than it is ment to fire from one, they just have to because of the situation. For the circumstances the PzH2000 performs incredibly well.

If you have to ask for a like? Bye.

I bet if you interviewed the Wehrmacht soldiers about their equipment in late 44, or 45, you’d see the same thoughts. It won’t change the end result. War is about logistics and production capacity.

Jeah but the problem is we german have no more our military is nearly out of ammo and weapons since many years. But our weapons are god 😢

Lots of bolock around the British turret etc. The simple fact why this SPG are doing great it's cause they are fitted with the Italian 155mm Vulcano GPS guided ammos. That's why they are so precise even kilometers away.

If systems like the Caesar works while not mass build them instead of fielding other expensive but heavily armoured system. This is wasting time and resource on system that are too heavy. Keep it cheap but in great quantity.

All these excuses for the territory they lost.

But the Russians have a 10:1 advantage.

The only way Russia is outshooting Ukraine is because they have more guns. Like way more. If they had the same amount, the Russians would lose handily. Check out how Russia ships it's ammunition. It's individually boxed in wood (per round) and the Russians have to break it open and manually load it one at a time. Even for their rocket trucks. They have to load each tube individually.

It seems that Russia and North Korea have pissed of South Korea enough that South Korea is now likely to provide direct support to Ukraine. Maybe we will see some K9 Thunders in Ukraine. South Korea also has a large capacity for production of 155mm ammunition too. The K9 is also an excellent self propelled gun.

Dude, why did you phrase the thumbnail like that? I thought you was gonna say Western weapon is crappy like Russian weapon but then it’s not come on man

4 shells hits at the same time ?
Sorry for, the Pzhb2000 hits with 6 shells !

This Vids is nothing more than polish advertising and whitewashing!
A good weapon, without a doubt, but no comparison to German SPG's... Thats's fact !

Ammunition period, is what the biggest impact is. They just are not getting it.

Yes, and Russia is fighting with no people or weapons. So our media told us. Also their economy is colapsed. That was two years ago.

Another bot channel.

Why do you deserve a like for something they build?

Trump will sell Ukraine to Putin next week, artillery is worthless against the electoral college

Tell me some thing good tell me that you like it.

Rheinmetall recently delivered first samples of their new shells with 100km of range to UA.

Ukraine innovated and used what it could but from thier decision to build the 2S22 Bohdana it would seem wheeled shoot and scoot artillery is of preference that likely was from experience of the CAESAR and later Archer systems.

The biggest problem with Western artillery is that Ukraine only has 1/10 amount of ammunition that Russia has and no-one is willing to pay for more even if there are millions of shells available on the market.

fabulous improvement. Combined with high quality optic drones and tanks, this things win the battles

I can promise you that they are not talking Miles like two countries on the whole planet do. They use metric system

I j

BUT STILL RUSSIA CONTINUES TO ADVANCE😂😂😂😂😂

The bhodana spg 25 miles to an island that ran off the Russians. Ukraine produced.

Not a single mention of towed artillery speaks volumes.

Very good material! Slava Ukraini!

The bull in this is why we are still watching hundreds of Ukrainian playing head the drone. As well as watching woman being dragged of the streets by press gangs. To the last Ukrainian was supposed to be a joke. But as long as the jobs making the weapons stay here in the west and the Ukrainian government keeps sending men and woman to there death then isn't that a price worth paying for wanting to be closer to the loving clutches of the West.

I served in an artillery unit and what I remember from the game is that being able to get the hell out of Dodge is as important as being able to deliver your payload accurately over a great distance. Having seen the impact of drones on the modern battlefield, I'd definitely NOT want to be operating an Archer. So, something armoured that can take a punch itself almost as good as throwing them. Wouldn't that leave me with the PzH2000 ? Live to fight another day. Which of the ones that you showed has the best survival rate for the machine and the crew ?

From what ive learned, artillery men on both sides are developing VERY serious brain injuries akin to some boxers and football players at the end of their lives.

The problem with Russian artillery is definition. Russian artillery is not part of infantry in Russia, but can be in the West. For instance a mortar is an infantry weapon in the West and an artillery piece in Russia.
Also Russia has had to improvise a lot which had degraded its effectiveness while increasing the numbers. For instance the tubes on MLRS have been separated into their own artillery systems. These systems can't be adjusted so nobody knows the point of aim. Another redesigned artillery pieces are the cannons from BMPs and tanks that have been separated from those vehicles. Again, those cannons cannot be adjusted.

Very short on the PzH2000 while you mention much more info about other systems. Seems biased.

The bonus shell ,with wings

Eh. Just couple things regarding Krab. One there was far more than 18 in Ukraine, likely total was around 70. Probably half of that number remains active at the moment.
Krab is also combination of AS-90 Braveheart (which was just a design for modernisation of UK AS-90's but was cut out of budget, after which license was sold to Poland, in production actually no components came from UK) with slightly modified K-9 Korean hull made on License in Poland. With Polish Topaz fire control system.

I'd say that Krab had it's time. It was mobile, accurate and reliable. And served in Ukraine for quite long time when it comes to serving in combat conditions. Topaz did help a lot. Poland handed over not only guns but modules ready to fight, with command vehicles. Krab was the gun that sort of enabled successful counteroffensive under Kharkiv.
However it was never as sophisticated as PZH-2000 or Archer. It is a simpler gun overall. And lacks the superb armor of PZH-2000.
But at the time it arrived to the front it did kick ass. And could handle... less delicate use, and any type of ammo that it was fed (Polish "invention" there was a bit more robust sealing system, which was added due to sub-standard quality of ammunition Poland used at the time - side effect was that gun ran quite well even if ammunition was out of spec, which is not really the case for PZH-2000 for example).

This video is another proof that this is another war made for weapon manufacturers.

But still can not win 😢

ai slop

The problem with the PzH2000 is, that thing was not designed to fire 20, 30, 40, 50 or more shots at a time. They are supposed to fire 3-6 shots and run, in order to avoid counter battery. Extensive use puts strain on the machine it was not designed to withstand.

They overused the PZ-2000 since the beginning of the war the practically used it as wonderweapon

not much hard truth

If Trump becomes president than the Ukrains have a big problem.
