A video of a rescue operation to return the self-propelled 152-mm Msta-S artillery system to its normal position with the help of a T-90A tank has appeared on the Network. Not at the first attempt, but the tank still managed to put a 42-ton self-propelled gun on the tracks.
The video appeared on social networks on December 4, the location and date of the shooting are not specified. On combat vehicles, identification marks are not distinguishable, allowing to establish the nationality of the equipment: in addition to the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, both vehicles are in service, for example, Azerbaijan. According to the background, it is only clear that it happens in the summer in the steppe.
The self-propelled gun turned over, falling from the trawl. Such emergencies are not uncommon when loading equipment onto trailers and unloading from them. In this case, the driver's error could have been aggravated by the high center of gravity of the "Msta". Having fallen, the self-propelled gun turned over on the roof. They returned her to the combat position in two steps. First, the T-90, connected by a cable to the chassis of the ACS, knocked the self-propelled gun sideways - tires were laid under it. Then the cable was hooked and the tank, straining, returned the self-propelled gun to the tracks.
- She was walking low, with a bend in the terrain. Making a barrel, I hooked bushes. It happens with these latest modifications on antigrav," ironic commentators write. Others remembered the ditto from the movie "At war as at War": "I loved the tank self-propelled gun, I took her for a walk in the woods. From such a novel, the whole grove is broken."
