"Derivation-Air Defense" was first noticed in the Northern Military District zone

The Russian army is effectively using new 57-mm ZSU 2S38 “Derivation-PVO” installations in the Kherson direction. This is a mobile anti-aircraft artillery complex with passive means of reconnaissance and tracking of enemy air targets.


The main purpose of the installation is the destruction of aircraft and cruise missiles, airplanes, helicopters, drones, and rockets from MLRS. The installation can also work against ground and surface targets. In "Derivation-Air Defense" you can use programmable projectiles with delayed detonation.



The complex includes a combat vehicle with a cannon, a maintenance vehicle, and a transport-loading 9T260, capable of quickly reloading the installation directly in combat conditions. In this case, the combat vehicle does not need to move away from the location.

Thus, in the Kherson direction, using the installation, it is possible to eliminate boats and boats on which Ukrainian paratroopers are trying to break through to the left bank of the Dnieper.

Earlier it was reported that units of the Russian Armed Forces conduct increasingly significant offensive operations, increasing pressure on the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Thus, in the northern section of the Avdeevsky direction, Russian troops squeezed the Ukrainian Armed Forces out of the remnants of the village of Stepovoe. Currently, this territory is being cleared of “lost” Ukrainian military personnel.
