RESTRICTION SUMMARY: APAwire CLIENTS ONLY SHOTLIST: APAwire - APAwire CLIENTS ONLY, Russia, 04 July 2023. Artillerymen of Tula-based Airborne Troops formation eliminate Strela-10 SAM system aiming to ambush Russian pilots. STORYLINE: An artillery unit of Tula-based Airborne Troops formation take up firing positions in Artyomovsk region, one of the hottest areas of the front. Ukrainian nationalists are testing defences of the Russian troops on a daily basis. Only the most skilled men serve in the Airborne Troops. The artillery crew has already destroyed dozens of AFU tanks, artillery pieces, and armoured personnel carriers. The paratroopers received the next target’s coordinates. Enemy positions were located few kilometres away from the unit. That particular Strela-10 air defence missile system crew took up a position in an industrial area, trying to ambush Russian pilots. The artillery crew launches a precise strike at the structure where the enemy is located. The projectile pierces the concrete roof and hits the target. The ammunition depot blows up. The gunner adjusts the fire and the next shells hit the anti-aircraft missile system. The Ukrainian troops hide it in the bush, but the camouflage does not help them any. The enemy fears this formidable machine for accuracy and firepower of the 152mm shell. Akatsiya 152mm self-propelled howitzer canon easily penetrates enemy strongholds. Therefore, the militants hunt for the gunners. After a precise strike, the crew quickly repositions. Footage by / APAwire
