GSH-23L gun 23 mm was originally developed for aviation. Completed by armor-piercing explosive shells with a speed of fire-500-3500 shots per minute. Ukrainian airmobile brigades have successfully used Humvee tactical armored vehicles as improvised gun trucks. The GSH-23 aviation gun was added to the Army cars of American production. The Defense Blog writes about it. Modifications demonstrate an innovative approach that allows you to improve fire support on the battlefield.

Recently, Ukrainian units have been trained in combat conditions that tested modified vehicles. The teams worked out tactical maneuvers and honed the shooting skills. The preparation involved direct firing operations and indirect fire from hidden positions, while using reconnaissance drones to adjust outside the visibility line. GSH-23L gun 23 mm was originally developed for aviation. The system is completed with armor -piercing explosive shells.

Burning-500-3500 shots per minute with queues of 8-10 shells. Effective range is 2 km, but the radius of action can be dilated twice or three times. The inaccuracy of the weapon is compensated by the density of fire and the destructive power of shells. The system lacks mechanical vision technologies, it is less protected from pollution - all this complicates the use on Earth.
