History and Use

The 2S19-M2 "Msta-S" is a modern 152 mm self-propelled howitzer developed and operated by the Russian Federation. The upgraded version of the 2S19 was first unveiled publicly in 2013 during the Russian Arms Expo in Nizhny Tagil. It features a modernized fire control system – a fully computerized suite that automates loading, aiming, and changing targets, increasing rate of fire and effectiveness on the battlefield. Additionally, the vehicle is coated with a special Nakidka covering that reduces thermal signature, and a digital mapping system has been introduced for faster terrain recognition. It has been used since the early 2010s, in the modern era, by the Russian army in exercises and local conflicts.
