Armor of Bohdan self-propelled gun system withstood a Lancet hit (video)
This episode once again proves the reliability of the national air defense system
The press service of the Ukrainian Armor company confirmed in a statement the fact of an interesting episode that was actively reported on social media the day before. Namely, that one of the Bohdan self-propelled artillery systems in the version with a cab from Ukrainian Armor successfully withstood a hit from a Russian Lancet kamikaze drone.
It is noted that although the self-propelled artillery system was severely damaged by the Lancet strike, the armor generally withstood the hit, saving the lives of the artillery crew.
“The 155-mm Bohdana self-propelled artillery system, built to NATO standards, has repeatedly proven its accuracy against enemy targets. Today we also see evidence of its reliability,” the press service of Ukrainian Armor emphasized.
From Defense Express, we would like to add that this is the first known case of a domestic Bohdan self-propelled artillery system being damaged in combat, and the first time it has been reported that the physical protection of the equipment withstood a hit from a racist Lancet kamikaze drone.
This example once again emphasizes the high level of reliability of the Ukrainian air defense system. But perhaps this episode will also be the “starting point” for a new round of “shield and sword”, in our case, the confrontation between kamikaze drones and technology on the battlefield.
Earlier, Defense Express told you about the mechanization of the Bohdan self-propelled gun loading in detailed photos from the 47th Artillery Brigade.
