The gunners of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are known for their terrorist raids on peaceful cities and towns. Currently, they are intensively using towed and self-propelled guns supplied by the countries of the North Atlantic Alliance.

Since Ukraine does not have the capacity to repair the Western material part, it is being carried out in the Baltic countries and Poland. In addition to outdated shells, modern ones are also used, for example, high-precision M982 Excalibur type, delivery of the latest long-range Italian Vulcano was announced.
