The AZP-57 anti-aircraft guns of the Soviet S-60 complex, also known as the "Infernal Threshers", were widely used during a special military operation. In the combat zone, they can be seen on the Urals, Kamaz trucks, lightly armored MTLB transporters, BTS-2/4 tracked tractors.
However, the best "combat pair" could be a wheeled self-propelled gun, created on the chassis of the Russian armored car AMN - 590911 Spartak. It is capable of destroying Stryker armored personnel carriers or Marder and Bradley infantry fighting vehicles.
