Ukrainian Artillerists Battle For Control Of Key Luhansk Highway 

Bravo Soldier!!!... Real-Manness!... 👏👏👏 ... ✊

his satisfied smile that they hit all targets is just great

"Today we hit all the targets" . . . LOVE hearing that and seeing that smile of bravery and confidence!

I'm in my late fifties and have followed many conflicts throughout my adult life. But ive never known anything like what we are seeing in Ukraine especially with the amount of information available on the internet these days. To witness the immovable resolve of the Ukrainian people and the astounding bravery of their military is extremely humbling. The Ukrainians are so dedicated and so tenacious in their fight to defend their homeland and their families and despite the setbacks and casualties they never waver. Slava Ukraini your golden fields, the brightest sun.

"Today we hit all our targets." (Little grin appears on his face) Priceless!

I like these guys. They are professional and motivated with no BS and no false bravado. Just get the job done.

"Today we hit all the targets" ... followed by a big smile...😊

Stay safe lads & good luck in getting your Country back 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Glad to see them on the offens

Love that little smile after he says "Today we hit all our targets." Slava Ukraine! Heroyam slava!

Unbelievably proud I think Ukrainian men women all the civilians. It is a honor to watch you it is an honor to know you, it is a honor to support you God bless you crainia

HUGE respect for these boys, from an old man in the US! Keep fighting! Keep winning! Slava Ukraini! Heroiam slava! 🇺🇦

God Give you belessings and a true aim boys! Slava Ukraine

Every day it amazes me that Ukraine is not only still-standing but counter-attacking the Orcs. Mad respect.

Keep up the good work.

Onward! To victory!

"Today we hit all the targets" Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦

Noting but respect and Honor and love for all of them 💗

Thank you for your service not to just Ukraine, But to the whole world. Your steadfast holding the lines and supporting other branches of the military. In a way your the tip of the spear. Or at least like "AT&T you can reach out and touch someone:".

Glory, Victory and Peace to Ukraine 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 ✨️

What professionals! These guys know their jobs and know the importance of their work. Much respect to the Ukraine service members

Impressive machinery and coordination. I wonder what is the range of V-46 with a 110KG shell. Slava Ukraini

Cầu chúc cho các bạn bình an và Chiến Thắng

God bless you Boys, the whole Free World supports you

The self-propelled howitzer is the soviet 1970's 2S7 "Pion" or "Malka", with a range of 37km-plus depending on the 203mm ammunition used. In comparison, most western systems are on the 155mm caliber size. Everything they said is pretty much textbook, traditional self-propelled artillery tactics. Key points are, drones for reconnaissance (to find the enemy as early as possible and locate their guns), spotting (to correct the artillery fires), weapons' mobility (to quickly move in and out after the fire missions) and range (for counter-battery action). The relatively casual appearance of everyone (like this civilian car in 0:27) surely makes management of manpower and materiel a bit easier to maintain and obtain. Oddly, they're acting as a single piece and look excessively calm despite mentioning counter-battery missions. I believe that drone dominance as "eyes and ears" - a field that the russians surely failed to conquer -, range and the overall war's situation give them some sort of aggressive assurance of safety.

Slava Ukrani! 👊 🇺🇦🌍❤️☮️ #StopRussia

These guys seem very professional, and proficient in their work, may glory come to Ukraine, 🇬🇧 🇺🇦

My humble thanks to the brave heroes defending democracy and freedom. There's nothing in this war quite like this 203mm gun firing 110kg shells. What a beast. Edinburgh Castle fires a gun at 13:00 every day. It was done to provide ships with accurate time. The tradition persists to this day. When Ukraine pushes the Russians out of their territory they should do something similar with this beast. I think it could drive tourism all by itself :)

Brave, honorable, courageous and handsome. How did Ukraine corner that market? Slava Ukraini ❤️🇺🇦❤️🌻🌻🌻🌻🌹

Good luck guys. Good is with you in this battle against terrorism

Wonderful soldiers with wonderful minds !!! Glory to Ukraine !

Artillery sweat saves infantry blood 👍🏻 Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦

Love the fact they've named their gun "Punisher" :-) "Destroying the Russians - in style!". But I'm not convinced about what one of the guys says about the range and accuracy being superior to Western counterparts. In fact, the range is pretty much the same on the German Pzh2000 and the Polish Krab, and I'm pretty sure they are more accurate. But the 203 mm has a more destructive shell, of course.

Total legends!! SLAVA Ukraine 🇺🇦

The SPG these men use reminds me of the old American M-110A1/ A2 8 inch Self Propelled Gun of the 1980s. I think the track of the M-110 was smaller though and we had a single dozer blade like spade. From 13 January 1980 to 31 December 1985 I served in a firing battery of the Kansas Army National Guard. In January 1986 I was transferred from C 2BN 130th FA to B 1BN 635th Armor as part of a reorganization. I went from being a Cannon Crewman to being an Armored Vehicle Crewman.

💪🏼🇺🇦✌🏼 Thank you interviewing these Ukrainian soldiers.

I pray for you guys safety ❤

Go Ukraine!! Take back your territory. All of it💙💛

Sad times! SLAVA UKRAINI 🇺🇦🇺🇦 "Don't give them one inch!" 💪🏻💙💛

Interesting and impressive - these people are doing a fine job!

They sound cool, calm, collected, experienced & professional. I bet the Ukrainian infantry are pleased to have these men on their team.

“Today, we hit all the targets” … enuf said 🇺🇦💪🏼🇺🇦

You all are doing amazing GLORY to Ukraine 🌻💪🙏

Stay safe. Stay strong. The world needs you. Slava Ukraini

Wow...this machine is amazing.

I never expected drones to become such an efficient element in warfare

OUR ALMIGHTY GOD THE FATHER, Please Bless, Save, and Protect all the UKRAINE Leaders, Soldiers, Warriors to their DIVINE VICTORY ... AMEN. 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇲🇺🇲

I hope we take Kremina soon too! That’s key to securing Lymanske region!

Great story glory to God and Ukraine.

Respect 🇺🇦

Ukrainian language is so beautiful, like singing, it’s very lyrical. It’s becoming one of my favorite languages. 🇺🇦💙🇺🇸

Can't lose with Howitzer Field Artillery The King of Battle...

"Time to work" they know what time it is... Destroy Russian aggressors time.. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦🇺🇲

Bravo Ukrainian soldiers 🇺🇦👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Goosebumps when he says "we hit all the target" damn

Great channel,always trust what is said/seen. Keep up the good work and Slava Ukraine, love from England

Congrats Ukraine, Kee it on

2S7 Pion is a big gun. 203mm shell is giving a bigger punch, but not as precise as Western made self-propelled artillery.

God speed, gentlemen! You're doing great so far.

Ukrainian military willl go down in history of one of the BEST, way to go guys give them hell!

This older USSR arty is very good piece good range solid accuracy more than enough explosives. You can even dig a trench behind it and if enemy counter-arty you, you can save the crew.

These guys are no nonsense professionals!

Happy Hunting! Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 ♥️!

Klasse. 🫡 🇺🇦 ✨

Our ANG armory here in town has those 155mm self propelled howitzers.....my brother used to train NG soldiers how to use them.

SLAVA Ukraine💙💛🙏👍🇺🇦

Take back your freedom almighty Ukraine 🇺🇦 🙏 Love a prayers from Detroit USA 🇺🇸

Ukrainians are amazing! Great respect for their fight against the brutal ruZZki invaders. Ukrainians are defending their land, and they defend European countries as well. Thank you, Ukraine 🇺🇦 🇺🇦🇺🇦

Good work.

God Bless the Ukrainian People and Military! 🙏🇺🇦Slava Ukraini!

It is about time the west give the champion soldiers Ukraine every thing that they needed, put my question is why the Russian soldiers can strike every where in Ukraine and what are we going to do about this situation please

My hope is you'll push the invaders out and they will forever stay out. Slava Ukrajini!

'' Now we hit all of the targets''. Now that' s what I like to hear!

Very encouraging. They seem to be very thoughtful. My neighbor spends time in Ukraine and says that he is treated well, the country is beautiful and he has fun. All the best regards to you 🙏 Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦👍

🇺🇦🙏💙💛

Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦

May Ukrainian forces succeed in every effort.

Many kudos to crews and very well done indeed! USA

Very good boys!❤❤❤👍

Are the shells heavy, he says.... no if you are super-men. Which these guys pretty much are as far as I can tell. Ukraine has an amazing army, how an army can become so good so fast during what passed for peace-time since 2014, is astounding.

Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦🇨🇦💙💛💙💛💙💛🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻

Glory to Ukraine.

These guys need to stay active, alive, continued good morale with plenty of shells.Hopefully their leadership values them and they stay motivated. Ukraine should decide when they want peace with Russia. Ukraine is doing NATO a big service so please don`t bail on these people.

untrained fresh recruits against battle-hardened veterans like these Russia has no chance whatsoever.

Heros! Best regards from Sweden

Slava i peremoha Ukrayini!!! 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

Pound em!! RELENTLESSLY!!!! Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 💪 ✌️

These are great videos. Commanders and troops on the ground give the most realistic information on what is happening spin/propaganda free*.

Wow! 110 Kg a shell. It's definitely not a one-man's job.

Like the way the Ukraine soldier smiled when he said that he hit all targets

Бог благословить Україну! Слава Україні! Я китайця. 上帝保佑烏克蘭！榮耀歸於烏克蘭！我是中國人。God bless Ukraine! Glory to Ukraine! I am Chinese.

Godspeed to these brave Ukrainian soldiers 🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦 some of them are so young, their whole lives are ahead, I pray they are safe and that Ukraine is soon deoccupied, so they can return to their families and peaceful lives. Slava Ukraini 💛💙💛💙

If i am not mistaken, they are using the old soviet self propelled artillery system "Pion".

HEROJI 🙏🙏🙏🙏💙💛🇭🇷

They need to be given more counter battery radars as well.

Love you guys! God bless to the armed forces of Ukraine! For the winner day! Glory to Ukraine ❤🇺🇦

It’s so inspiring to see those brave Ukrainians defending us all from Russian fascism.
