Polish Krab and Soviet 2S3 Akatsiya in Bakhmut Region. Artillery on the Frontline

Winter brings new challenges to the Ukrainian Armed Forces, as Russia started to advance from multiple directions. The Bakhmut region remains one of the toughest, as Russians are trying to reclaim the territories they lost this summer. We visited two artillery units to learn what Winter warfare is like, what makes the Polish-made AHS Krab so good, and why Ukraine needs more modern Western equipment.

Polish AHS Krab self-propelled howitzers are characterized by extraordinary speed, mobility, comfort and precision of the guidance system. It is a house for the crew, there is heating and air conditioning. Each AHS Krab is equipped with a VHF radio, you can listen to music and news, and even a kettle, stove and microwave.
The software relieved the physical burden of gunmen who tirelessly destroy Russian equipment.

Thank you Poland ! Brothers in arms .

I know that far away countries like Portugal might not get why... But us here in Poland where I'm from and countries around Scandinavia, Germany, Czech rep. We have to do more.
Otherwise certain European countries may face extinction event. Let's be honest Eastern Finland, Northern Japan, Koningsberg, Transnistria etc... are lost, speak Russian or die policy is still in place.

AHS Krab: "What do you have there? Indian shells? These will keel!"
Pzh 2000: "Om noe! My autoloader is dirty and was supposed to be maintained yesterday. I won't fire anything!"

the 2nd gun is NOT 2S3 Akacja - it is 2S1 Gwozdika

I’m surprised that troops and equipment do not have winter camouflage.

Krab is a monster but need active protection. At the beginning, many Krabs were damaged/destroyed due to the fault of the Ukrainians, because they were standing in the middle of the field or ammunition wagons were standing next to Krabs when there was no loading and then they were easily spotted by the Lancets

Como Veterano he de decir que estoy muy orgulloso del esfuerzo y la pericia alcanzada por el Ejército de Ucrania en el uso del material que les hemos enviado desde Occidente. Pese a las dudas con las que nos martillearon "los de siempre" según les enviábamos nuevos materiales, el Soldado Ucraniano ha demostrado su capacidad de aprendizaje y adaptación sin ninguna duda. El ejemplo, entre otros, es que han alcanzado un nivel de uso, incluso de maestría a la hora de emplear ese material como demuestran numerosos vídeos que existen en la red donde por ejemplo vemos impactos de Artillería con una precisión que no se consigue de casualidad. sino a través del entrenamiento y la práctica. En definitiva, esperemos que nuestros Gobiernos sigan comprometidos con la Causa de la Libertad y la Independencia de Ucrania apoyando y equipando a sus soldados con todo lo que necesiten, porque es lo justo y están pagando con lo mas valioso, con su sangre.
Un abrazo a los Hermanos del Ejército Ucraniano desde España. Hasta la Victoria!!! Gloria a Ucrania.

That's not a 152mm 2S3 Akatsiya but rather a 122mm 2S1 Gvozdika.

Боже Милостивий і Милосердний захисти Україну і її захисників.

It sounds funny when everywhere they say „self propelled” instead just say Howitzer 😅 I don’t think that it’s necessary to distinguish that when we can see the unit on the video.

If you look at the Roof HMG NSV 12.7x99 NATO version HMG is on the AHS Krab the 2S3 lacks one although it can be fitted to use one Ukrainian-made part but needs a Polish 12.7x99 NATO Bolt and barrel
