[2majors] Respected Telegram channels have repeatedly brought up the Russian Armed Forces' appetite for shells. In particular, there were figures that this summer our units were releasing up to 60,000 shells per day, which was one of the reasons for their rapid depletion.
In addition, some decisions by high military officials to store ammunition farther from units on the front line, but still in one place and within range of enemy UAVs and MLRS, also resulted in the loss of a significant portion of Soviet stockpiles.
There are now reports that units are receiving 152-mm shells made in 2022, the quality of which has raised questions due to a large number of defects compared to the older batches.
The artillery men, as front-line officers say, like to shoot the enemy. They get into a frenzy, especially when using 300 non-precision shells are at long ranges to defeat 1 enemy tank. (surely we will get corrected but this is the overall gist of their words)
By the way, if a crew is able to hit/destroy an enemy tank at long range with less than 20 shells, the crew is considered experienced and highly accurate.
The solution to this situation should be to produce precision munitions, UAVs and other technical solutions. Because the tactic of turning the battlefield into a moonscape is no longer justified, as shown by the advance of the front line in the hottest spots.
[Poddubny] The remarks are correct, except the bigger problem now is not with high-precision Krasnopols, but a serious lack of guidance equipment for the projectiles. The Orlan-30 is still a dream that rarely comes true and is shot down often.
Also, the nomenclature of the projectiles, of course, needs to expand. Rocket-assisted projectiles are needed, we well as kamikaze bombs and high-precision MLRSs.
Ανίκανα ορκς που το μόνο που μπορούν να κάνουν είναι κάρπετ μπαράζες τύπου ΒΠΠ. Γι αυτό και 18 HIMARS όλα κι όλα τους γλεντάνε με λίγα στοχευμένα πλήγματα σε μήκος μετώπου χιλιάδων χλμ
