RESTRICTION SUMMARY: APAwire CLIENTS ONLY SHOTLIST: APAwire - APAwire CLIENTS ONLY, Russia- 23 May 2023. CMD artillery crews continue to carry out tasks within special military operation. STORYLINE: Artillery crews of 152-mm Giatsint-S and Msta-S self-propelled howitzers and D-20 towed howitzers of the Central Military District (CMD) perform daily fire missions to destroy targets and also carry out range of counter-battery countermeasures against the enemy artillery. In cooperation with the UAV crews, the servicemen hit the identified targets. The adjustment of fire accuracy of combat guns is carried out in real time, which allows to destroy the enemy targets with a minimum number of rounds. In the course of combat operations, D-20 towed howitzer destroyed one U.S.-manufactured M113 armoured personnel carrier, while Giatsint-S self-propelled howitzer destroyed a detected AFU tank with the first shot. In addition, thanks to the coordinated work of the artillery reconnaissance radar crews, the troops are able to successfully counter-battery the enemy artillery systems. Footage by /APA
