Invisible for UAVs: Armed Forces Months showed the use of special fortifications (video)

To spread: the Ukrainian military demonstrated the work of an 82mm mortar from a specially equipped closed fire position with sliding shelter. Such an engineering solution was the result of the transition of the Russian-Ukrainian war to a positional nature. The network appeared on the network of combat work of Ukrainian mortars on the front line. The published video shows how the calculation prepares the mortar for shooting, opening the roof of the shelter, which goes back along the guides.

The design is equipped with wheels and requires manual support during operation. The calculation makes only a few shots, then quickly closes the roof, reducing the risk of fire in response. According to Analytics, Defense Express, the footage shows a well -prepared position that provides protection and masking, which are especially important in the conditions of mass use of UAVs, which allow you to quickly detect targets and fire.

Although the shelter is unlikely to withstand the direct hit of the artillery projectile, its main task is to hide mortar from detection. Experts also point out that earlier mobility was considered a key factor in the survival of mortar calculations, which stimulated the development of self -propelled systems. However, with the growing role of drones and fixing the front, this approach has become too dangerous.

Similar trends are observed in artillery, where high -mobile tools are increasingly replaced by work from prepared closed positions. Closed shelters have been used by both parties to the conflict for a long time, and analysts have been added. In these circumstances, the ghoul howitzers were given preference, which is easier to place in such positions, which explains the phenomenon known as the "paradox of the CAU".

Recall that in May, the 92nd Separate assault brigade of the Armed Forces showed the work of the trophy artillery system "Non-K" on the positions of Russian troops. These 120 mm caliber guns were captured by the Ukrainian forces in the enemy in the first months of a full -scale invasion of the Russian Federation in 2022. In March, the press service of the third assault brigade of the Armed Forces posted a video that filmed shooting with a rare Soviet 240 mm mortar M-240.
