In the Pokrovsk direction, Ukrainian soldiers destroyed the North Korean self-propelled artillery unit "Koksan" with the help of drones. The corresponding video is published on its Telegram channel by the operational-strategic group of troops "Khortytsia", reports UNN.
Details
It is noted that the operators of the "Muramasa" unit struck a rare North Korean self-propelled artillery unit with a 170-mm cannon with drones, which the occupiers hid in a forest belt.
However, our aerial reconnaissance found it, and the drone hit the artillery unit with a precise strike
The military reported that cars and a motorcycle of the invaders were also hit and destroyed by drones of this unit.
For reference
The M-1978 "Koksan" self-propelled gun manufactured in the DPRK is equipped with a 170-mm cannon. The firing range with a high-explosive fragmentation projectile reaches 43 km, and with an active-rocket projectile - 54-60 km, which makes it one of the most long-range barrel artillery systems used by the Russian Armed Forces. Rate of fire: 2 shots within 5 minutes, and this machine is serviced by 8 people (driver-mechanic, commander, gunner and 5 loaders/carriers).
