Rostec: the firing range of the Malva wheeled self-propelled gun exceeds 24 kilometers
The maximum firing range of the Russian self-propelled artillery mount (SAU) on the 2S43 Malva wheeled chassis can exceed the declared 24 kilometers. Installation options commented in Telegram-channel of the state corporation “Rostec”.
The state corporation drew attention to the first footage demonstrating the use of Malva in the special operation zone. “Firing range: > 24 kilometers. You didn’t think that everything was so simple, did you?” – noted in the message.
Rostec posted a link to last year’s interview with the first deputy general director of the state corporation, Vladimir Artyakov, who, in particular, spoke about work on a modernized version of Malva with an increased firing range. “Believe me, we will have something to counter the long-range western howitzers that are currently being supplied to the Ukrainian Armed Forces,” he said.

Earlier, military expert Anatoly Matviychuk said that the main feature of the Malva was its speed and maneuverability. The self-propelled gun received a four-axle BAZ chassis and a 152 mm howitzer.
