Ukraine’s servicemen, who are actively destroying the invaders by Polish Krab self-propelled gun, told the ArmyInform what advantages this SPG has on the battlefield. The publication emphasizes that the gunners "transferred" to the Polish Krab from the Soviet 2S5 Giatsynt self-propelled guns, so they had the opportunity to compare these two vehicles.
For example, the battery commander Artem notes that thanks to automated guidance, the same target can be covered from different points - that is, these self-propelled guns on the battlefield do not need lining up, you can spread them out as much as possible, but aim at one target. "We are also very good with hitting accuracy. We destroy everything," says Artem.

At the same time, the driver Vladyslav talks about the high security of this ACS: he says that the explosions were under the vehicles themselves, but the Krab survived. In addition, Ukraine’s specialists have already learned how to carry out repair work.
The driver of the SPG also notes the maneuverability of the machine: despite the weight of 48 tons, the Krab can reach a speed of 70 km/h and perfectly overcomes swamps and other difficult places. Despite the fact that the ridges between the rollers in the Krab are smaller than on Soviet SPGs.
Also, Artem notes that the Krab self-propelled guns are made "for people" and they are much more comfortable than the Soviet analogs. In addition, the software of the SPG significantly reduces the load on the crew.
Defense Express reminds that the Armed Forces of Ukraine received 18 Krab self-propelled guns from Poland. In addition, Kyiv and Warsaw signed a contract for the supply of 54 units of Polish self-propelled guns to Ukraine.
