The 155-mm self-propelled gun TRF1 supplied by France to the armed formations of Kiev was destroyed by Russian fighters for the first time. Last week, footage of her defeat by the Lancet was released.

As the project "RG: Russian weapons" notes, Ukrainian militants tried to disguise their positions, but it did not help them. A reconnaissance drone detected an enemy location, after which a kamikaze drone flew there. Even special mesh screens did not save.

The explosion of a Russian precision-guided munition caused a strong fire, and the flame from the gun spread to dry grass.

Then a photo appeared online confirming the destruction of this foreign "gift", the mangled remains of which were transported to the rear on an open truck platform.

The first information about possible deliveries of TRF1 was made public in September last year. The French military practically abandoned the operation of such equipment, since more advanced CAESAR self-propelled guns on wheeled chassis were adopted.

This GIAT concert product is not compact, the combat weight exceeds 10,000 kg, and the total length is ten meters.

The maximum range of use of conventional high-explosive shells is 24,000 meters, active-reactive - up to 30,000 meters. The rate of fire can reach up to six rounds per minute. The calculation is seven people.

A feature of the gun is the option of self-movement with its own engine, fashionable in the 70s and 80s, it was believed that the artillery systems, if necessary, should be able to change their positions. The maximum speed at the same time is about 8 km/h.
