This was announced by Naev, Commander of the Joint Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, during special tactical exercises at one of the training grounds of the Northern Operational Zone.
The equipment of mobile fireteams with new Czech-made anti-aircraft guns began this year. 15 mobile complexes with 14.5-mm machine guns were provided to Ukraine by Czech volunteers.
As Naev wrote on his Facebook, Viktor anti-aircraft systems are easy to maintain and maneuver. They are easy to hide in a firing position, and the rate of fire of about 600 rounds per minute allows you to reliably hit air targets at long distances.
In combination with a thermal imaging sight and a collimator target designator, this is a powerful weapon against “shaheeds”.
