The guns began to produce in 1947 against air or land purposes. Earlier it was reported that the Armed Forces had seized at least 4 KS-19 during a counter-offensive in Kharkiv region. The CS-19 anti-aircraft guns appeared in the Ukrainian military, which appeared in 1947 in 1947. This was reported by Ukraine Weapons Tracker analysts. The network posted a video in which at least 4 KS-19 is fire.

Analysts do not rule out that anti -aircraft guns can be used against terrestrial purposes in direct cure, not just against air purposes. Defense Express notes that the CS-19 could appear in the Armed Forces as a trophy, they were captured during a counter-offensive in Kharkiv region. The Ukrainian military captured at least 4 KS-19. However, it is possible that anti -aircraft guns have been removed from Ukrainian storage warehouses.

Journalists say that despite their age KS-19 can be useful for the Armed Forces. The characteristics of the gun allow fire for land purposes up to 20 km away, and the height of the lesion of the air goals - up to 15 km. The firing rate is up to 15 shots per minute. The main question for such guns is the presence of ammunition. The publication does not rule out that Bulgaria, which also had the KS-19, could help with this.
