In early April, Rostec announced the delivery of upgraded 152-mm self-propelled guns 2C19M1 "Msta-S" and 2C3M "Acacia" to Russian troops. Western observers believe that the improvements obtained by these self-propelled guns allow them to effectively fight enemy targets due to close interaction with intelligence means.

The previously set task of forming reconnaissance shock/firing circuits [ROCK/RUC] requires real-time coordination of howitzers, missile systems, and aircraft with intelligence assets such as drones and artillery radars. Russian troops have achieved close integration of weapons and sensors, often by co-locating drone operators with artillery batteries [in one unit].

- they argue in the EDR Magazine edition.

Now, due to the modernization of the ACS, the ROCS are able to work in digital format, which allows data to be transmitted from drones such as Orlan-30 and counter-battery radars, for example, Zoo-1, directly to the artillery crew. This makes it possible to fire the 3OF39 Krasnopol laser-guided projectile and the Krasnopol-M2, which appeared already during the conflict.

Theoretically, the upgraded 2C19M1 can now hit targets very accurately and very quickly. APU often disperse the guns, placing them separately from each other. In the new conditions, it will be easier to destroy them by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation

- it is noted in the Western press.

As indicated, the upgraded Acacia is significantly inferior in range to the Msta-S, having a short barrel, but it is generally a lighter platform, which also has good off-road mobility, which is important in the current war.
