Tray mortar crews working in the Kupyansk direction

Tray mortar crews working in the Kupyansk direction The reconnaissance of the West group of troops received information about the build-up of enemy forces in the Kupyansk direction. The detection of Ukrainian Armed Forces units was carried out using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). In this case, as a means of destroying and suppressing enemy strongholds, manpower and firepower, the military personnel of the West group of troops used the 82-mm automatic mortar Tray. Due to their dimensions and weight, the Tray mortars can be transported disassembled by crews of four servicemen. The maximum firing range of all available 82 mm mines is 6 km. These mortar crews move on the basis of SUVs and travel to the front line at a distance of up to 3 kilometres. The crews of the ‘roaming’ 82-mm mortars literally have a matter of minutes to occupy a firing position, calculate the initial data for firing and fire the first shot. The correctly chosen rate of fire allows you to conduct both harassing fire and keep several kilometres of the front in suspense with one calculation, and conduct targeted suppressive fire. Such tactics have shown their effectiveness and make it possible for a ‘roaming’ mortar to remain unnoticed by enemy air and artillery reconnaissance. Thanks to the adjustment of fire by UAV units, high speed and accuracy of hitting targets is achieved. Join Military Wave Источник: Military Wave
