Russian Ural rolling stock factory stated in official media that the factory has delivered a batch of upgraded 2S7M Marka heavy self-propelled artillery to Russian Ministry of Defense in advance. According to the official description, this heavy artillery is currently the world's strongest artillery , no one. Against the backdrop of Russia's upcoming winter offensive and the Ukrainian army fiercely counterattack, the delivery of this artillery is believed to alleviate Russia's military pressure to a certain extent.
2S7 self-propelled artillery was developed during the Soviet period and officially entered service in 1975. So far, the 2S7 is still the largest caliber self-propelled artillery in mass production in the world, with a total output of about 1,000 units. Based on the 2S7, Russia has continuously improved and launched the latest "Marka" heavy self-propelled artillery. The communication equipment, ammunition load capacity and range of the gun have been greatly improved, thus ensuring the superiority of the gun in terms of mobility, flexibility and operability. It is reported that the total combat weight of this type of artillery is about 45 tons, can carry 6 people, carry 8 rounds of ammunition, and the preparation time for launch can be shortened to 7 minutes. The conventional high-explosive bomb can be used within a range of 35 kilometers, and powered rockets can be used at a distance of 50 kilometers. It is worth mentioning that as the world's largest artillery, "Marka" theoretically has the ability to fire tactical nuclear shells. From this perspective, "Marca" is indeed the most powerful artillery in the world today.
After the Ukrainian army successfully launched a series of counterattacks, it forced the Russian army to enter a passive defense state for a time. As a result, Russia and Ukraine officially entered a critical stage of strategic stalemate. For the Russian army, due to the serious strategic misjudgment of the Russian top leaders before, the strategic goals are unclear, the front line is too long, and the shortage of troop and logistics supplies are also given opportunities for Western countries and Kiev . With the support of Western precise intelligence systems, the Ukrainian army was as if they had entered an unmanned territory in the Russian-controlled war zone in southern Ukraine, and in a short period of time it regained more than 8,000 square kilometers of lost land. After losing the military important military location Liman, the leader of Chechnya Kadyrov even directly bombarded the commander of the Russian Central Military Region, and demanded strict accountability. Under many unfavorable factors, Russian President Putin set his tone and promised to use all means to end the Russian-Ukrainian conflict as soon as possible.
In terms of response methods, on the one hand, it requires the Russian military industry to work at full capacity and increase the production of weapons and equipment. In addition to speeding up delivery of advanced main battle tanks such as T-90M and T-14, the military industry department even plans to renovate thousands of T-62 tanks . Including the "Marka" heavy artillery delivered this upgrade, it is also one of the preparations of the Russian military. On the other hand, a mobilization of 300,000 reserves was announced. To date, the Russian-Ukrainian conflict has been conservatively estimated that at least 10,000 officers and soldiers have been killed in the Russian army, with a total casualties of about 80,000. In fact, Russia currently has only about 200,000 ground combat forces. In addition to front-line combat, it also has to divide its troops to garrison the controlled areas. When Ukraine, which claims to have a million troops, launched a counterattack, Russia actually no longer has combat advantages. In addition, Putin is also frequently replacing senior command officers on the front line, and senior generals, including La Tai, have been replaced by a group of generals with more radical combat methods.
Donbas Battle , the Russian army once used the advantage of artillery to segment and encircle the Ukrainian army. However, with the launch of advanced long-range artillery assisted by Western aid on the battlefield, the Russian army's artillery advantage was gradually weakened. Especially after the Ukrainian army's high-mobile artillery was put into the battlefield, the Russian army fell into a passive situation. Therefore, the Russian army currently lacks the large-caliber artillery of in order to once again form firepower suppression on the Ukrainian army. In addition, in terms of satellite communication, the defects of the Russian army have gradually been exposed. Judging from the Russian army's guidance attack on Kiev, the landing point error is quite large, and some of them have fallen to unrelated targets. To this end, Russia urgently launched a navigation satellite to make up for the shortcomings in satellite communications.
