A Ukrainian artillery strike destroyed four Russian howitzers after drones from the 44th Brigade located the targets. Three D-20s and one D-30 were eliminated, with the strike confirmed by released video.
Ukrainian artillery strike guided by drones despite jamming
The 44th Separate Artillery Brigade used reconnaissance drones to adjust fire on Russian artillery positions, according to Militarnyi. Russian electronic warfare systems failed to jam the UAVs.
The brigade said its gunners “give the enemy no chance” and that recent days showed “firing points turned into scrap metal.”
The targeted guns included three D-20s, 152 mm howitzers with a 17 km range, and one D-30, a 122 mm system with a 15 km range. Both D-20 and D-30 are the Soviet-era towed artillery pieces.
Destroying these artillery pieces reduces enemy firepower on the frontline and increases the safety of Ukrainian positions.
Earlier this year, the 44th Brigade received an upgraded version of the domestic Bohdana self-propelled howitzer with a new armored cabin.
