Kiev Forces Lost Most Of Their First ‘Krab’ Howitzers (Video)

A Polish-made Krab howitzer.

The Russian military has apparently destroyed most of Kiev forces’ first Polish-made Krab self-propelled 155 mm howitzers.

On April 22, video footage surfaced online showing a completely destroyed Ukrainian Krab howitzer and its ammunition vehicle. The footage was reportedly taken near the Seversk front, in the outskirts of the village of Zvanivka in the Donetsk region.

This was the eleventh confirmed destruction of a Krab howitzer in Ukraine. At least two others were documented to have been damaged.

Thus, Kiev forces have lost most of the first 18 Krabs it received directly from Polish military stocks last May, some three months after the beginning of the Russian special military operation in Ukraine.

The Krab was developed by Poland’s weapons manufacturer Huta Stalowa Wola. The howitzer combines the South Korean K9 Thunder chassis with a British BAE Systems AS-90M Braveheart turret with French Nexter Systems 52-calibre long gun and Polish WB Electronics’ Topaz artillery fire control system.

The howitzer can fire up to six shells per minute. It has a maximum firing range of 30 kilometers with regular shells, and up to 50 kilometers with American-made M982 Excalibur precision-guided rounds.

Last June, it was announced that Ukraine had placed an order for an additional 60 Krabs for $700 million. However, it is still unknown if any of these howitzers have been delivered to Kiev forces.

Ukraine has so far received more than 800 artillery systems, including mortars, howitzers and multiple rocket systems, from its allies. Many of these systems have been already damaged, destroyed or even captured by the Russian military. Precision-guided munitions like the 2K25 Krasnopol 153 mm artillery rounds and Lancet loitering munitions are playing a key role in neutralizing the artillery of Kiev forces.

Yet ironically most of the JewSA merc. faggots fighting for the Gaylenky Nazi regime have probably given each other crabs!

No wonder! Those Krab howitzers seem to burn down to nothing when they are hit by anything. I am wondering if soldiers are even allowed smoke around them. Throw one cigarette but in the Krab direction and it is gone :)

Is it true that at the time Zelensky was chosen to be Ukrainian president, he spoke Russian and didn’t even know Ukrainian, and had to take a crash course in Ukrainian to be able to communicate to his own countrymen?

WHY is Ukraine not having all of its rail and roads coming into the country shelled? WHY is Russia not downing American aircraft to Poland?

Russia is doing such a great job grinding down the Ukronazis on the Eastern Front. It must be so demoraling for the fascists to collect their NATO toys from the Polish border take them 1000 km across 404 and see them blown up by the Russian army and aerospace forces. Remember there is also a large Russian and Belarusian army sitting on the north western norder ready and waiting for the order to go into western 404

Psionists slaves of America

The zionist run Ukrainian organ harvesting gangs are at a loss, there’s not much to recover from charred NATO made armored coffins after Russian antitank fire.

Tomu ja hovorím dobrá práca. Len tak ďalej priatelia. Čo nevidieť bude celá zločinecká teroristická organizácia NATO demilitarizovaná!!! Preto bolo aj dobré, že sa Ruské vojská nijak obzvlášť neponáhľali pri oslobodení mesta Bachmut. Banderovské fašistické svine tu stratili kopu personálu a tak isto bojovej techniky. Veľa z nej sa fakticky nedostali ani na miesto určenia, boli zničené už po ceste na svoje stanovištia. To by šlo!!! Svetu mier!!!

Russia just destroyed a heavily fortified underground bunker that housed over 300 top NATO and Ukrainian leaders.
