NO TIME WASTED - Russia is fighting with new weapons that didn't exist at the start of the Special Operation.

Having just completed all necessary trials, the 2S43 Malva ("Mallow") is now on the battlefield. Key innovation is wheeled chassis, which makes the Malva more mobile than the existing MSTA-S self-propelled howitzer.

Similar to a US HIMARS (https://t.me/IntelRepublic/27481) - its technical characteristics are quite impressive; with a firing range of 24.5km, and a rate of fire of up to 7 rounds per minute, it is operated by a crew of 5, and can carry a total of 30 rounds. Malva marks a significant advancement in the capabilities of Russian artillery systems - improved mobility, lighter weight, and cost-effective operation. 👌
