[000:00:00;00] quickly, but actually the crew is neutralized and is highly appreciated accordingly. these are highly professional. well, we have already switched to better weapons. that is, we are now driving these litriks , and here it is possible to see it partially visible , yes, it is a litriks and caliber 50 bmg, they are 20 times more difficult to take away and accordingly, they are extremely high-quality weapons, and we began to transport vitrix, cadex defenses , this kind of weapons and actually provide them together with rugers of caliber 338. rüger itself let's say it has never let us down and let's say it has never let us down

and here is the 416 408 375 caliber and of course the 50th caliber is what we supply to the armed forces and today we will buy a soto rifle. by the way, i will say that who wants to support the ukrainian military sniping and help with the purchase of rifles for our snipers go to the facebook of the black sea coast there are details , you can help speed up the process of re-equipping our military with modern weapons that, in principle, there is a decision to form sniper groups of 68 people. is this already a regular decision, in particular, every brigade there or every special forces battalion there can have such groups. is it just an initiative decision as an optimal way to combine the potential and skills of snipers ? at the beginning of the war, such groups began to appear in our country, in

the kulchytskyi battalion, in the armed forces in various brigades, and then it turned out that there was even a 21st year manual on the use of snipers of special operations forces in the ato and there, accordingly, completely similar principles are prescribed, and accordingly you can contact me on facebook, i will send you this manual, and again, in all the textbooks of the american special operations forces, the same actions are prescribed as snipers, well, at least a couple, or better, six , sometimes 10 people, and they perform very cool specific tasks and if it is clear that these must be people who have been in the profession for many years, who have been shooting for many years, well, for example, even the eighth or svd and can pass, let's say

, transition courses to 338, who is talented to transition for 50 or they already have experience that they fought with 338 of 50 and now it so happened that they were issued only the 308th and accordingly we provide all these people personally provide weapons and accordingly further they carry out these tasks , the command very quickly saw that it is extremely effective what are these rescue teams, what are they, well, they work miracles , starting from the fact that such a team of six azov snipers simply stopped the russian offensive in the field , and accordingly, what is the value

of these groups for the command, that those people who are highly experienced they lead these groups, they can coordinate an all-arms battle in the event of a crisis, that is, we have had cases where the commanders were knocked out of order and so on, and let's say these snipers, they coordinated the general battle when the russians attacked and, accordingly , helped tremendously, and this was also during the offensive, when accordingly, it was possible to capture very quickly. literally in a couple of hours, three villages in front of the estuary, it was something that was carefully scouted because we have such people. well , they can really come through any minefield through a mined forest where the russians are not they do not expect to find out everything, report everything, and then, accordingly, raise whole battalions and suddenly pour

in russians, and accordingly , well, it is very much appreciated. this is their high professionalism, experience. well, they go out from time to time and improve their qualifications with our instructors, who are world champions and the like, and also there in we have canation. well, there are other people who, accordingly, these people too. well, they retrain them in every possible way to renew their skills, and as a result . well, let's just say that people have not practiced everything to the machine and how i am surprised by their courage and their virtues, and i also wonder how lucky they are. that is, it was

there have already been a thousand situations when hailstones stuck three meters into the ground and did not break, and everyone calls the rear and says yuriy pavlovich thank you for the prayers, but they believe in such miracles, they believe because it really happens to people, if only god were ours the snipers are helped by mr. yuri, but are we being led by couples so personal let's say this is the list of the number of enemies that they destroy , we remember there is the story of this finnish sniper there, who is famous there, who in 100 days of this russo-finnish war there in 100 days destroyed 750 there if i'm not mistaken, do we have such people who really have a significant list of such achievements, i can say that i gave weapons to a person who is in second place, third, fourth and fifth, i can say which specific

list i consider unethical talk at all until the end of the war well, the numbers are impressive, very good results, and well, i can say that i have snipers, recently with vitrix, a guy went out with vitrix for the first time to a position for a day and a half and filled 18 of them and he does not consider it an extraordinary result, it is considered normal work i.e. 18 there for one combat shift if and i think it is extremely cool when people let's say like this go out to work and in general absolutely well , they clean up i would say the territory because let's say that or the enemy's defense is softened in some place like for example we

they just cleared sviatohirsk by shooting from the podertem, they just cleared the holy place and they were afraid to show up and camped behind sviatohirsk , we were shooting across the river, or let’s say so, their offensive potential goes astray when a group of snipers is operating, coordinating the fire there, the artillery does everything, shoots back, and as if the only thing is that, of course, we sometimes we see all kinds of videos where, let's say, there are so few professional snipers there, well, in the same way, there are bahmuts , they shoot from the windowsill, they are wrapped around the hint , they run on the balconies here, it can be seen that it is not very a skillful person was given a beret, and let's say in the hands of a professional, instead of 10 shots, there would be one shot and it would be effective, well, this is sometimes offensive to us

, because let's put it this way. in principle, they switched to vitrix, cadex defense, there are other calibers that are more accurate because, after all, bars have a large one. let’s say, well, it’s already 2 km wide and it’s difficult to hit from it. i’m not talking about bar 416, it’s my love and that’s it, but let’s say we switched to more high-precision weapons and, accordingly, these superprofessionals who have been in the profession for 15 years have cancer in afghanistan , they have served in the french legion there , they have been there for 14-15 years, we are trying to give them all such superweapons, for example, it allows ordinary cartridges for hornady 700,750 hryvnias take a target for 2400 2500 manpower and

armored vehicles for 2 km with a special sniper cartridge . km, we will be able to hit the enemy, this is very cool. we have people whom we provided with 375 caliber, they are so very strange, these people are such real samurai and they have shots with 375 caliber there for almost 3 km, that is, people do miracles and unlike many others they don't brag there, all the videos show yuriy pavlovych and say, i tested the scope of the test rifle, but i think that we will still have to return to this topic several more times and in more detail. and now, considering the fact that

mortars are already waiting for us, thank you very much for yours inclusion of our viewers, i will remind you that yuriy chornomorets was a sniper on the espresso channel, a volunteer theologian and doctor of philosophy, and then we will talk about mortars, because if a rifle is like a scalpel on the battlefield, a sniper rifle, then a mortar is a kind of sledgehammer that can perform and accurate functions and large-scale functions and now we will talk about exactly how mortars are used on the battlefield why they are so necessary and why we often mention them lately we have a lieutenant of the third of the freedom battalion of the rapid response brigade of the national guard of ukraine, gunner lieutenant roman konon, mr. roman, i congratulate you good day studio good day viewers glory to ukraine glory to the heroes artillery and mortars are probably something that is very dear to you today please tell me

what mortars your battalion is fighting with what do all the main mortar missions look like for a mortarman on the battlefield, we in the svoboda battalion had mortars of various types and western partners and soviet ones are definitely on the air. unfortunately , i cannot say which means for reasons for security reasons and the fact that the anti-tank guns also look at our information space and can use it for their own purposes , but our guys who worked with them very successfully learned how to make mortars, and already from the second mine we could hit stationary targets , moving ones, of course, we definitely need more close-range shots by stationary from the second mine, we hit the target precisely, we make a huge impression, then the katsapam has the best days . we were able

to destroy a platoon of these occupiers from a boy of about 30 of these inhumans in literally a few hours of work there, and who are already roasting in hell and listening to that bastard kobzon and when we talk about mortars and mines to them and sometimes there is a lack of ammunition, what is the maximum load or amount of ammunition can there be a combat shift or there in a day to release a calculation of mortars if at all it is possible such there , the bc needs to be aware of the numbers clearly more, and now the function is that it is from the fourth brigade of operational assignment to defend bakhmut, it is definitely needed more , look guys, we are all motivated our fighters from the freedom battalion and other units are also motivated. look, if you kill these orcs without interruption, they are now

climbing almost 24 hours a day, plus our aerial reconnaissance is working, which finds targets, which finds their warehouses, their control points , and mortars - this is close to an artillery battle. right there it is very far away. you can’t hit them for 15 km, but up to 7 km you can accurately hit them in the teeth and very firmly. the bc needs definitely more if the calculation will work directly and without interruption for a day. one mine 120 is 16 kg it is quite difficult, but the guys are motivated and we have had cases where more than 200 mines were released in a day, somewhere around 180-190 mines we could plant. this is why the katsapas are doing a large-scale offensive when we covered our positions

of our guys from the arto infantry and we suppressed them with our artillery fire, according to whom they went on the offensive, we covered them there with tufts and guys from the infantry, then when we met with them and now at the combat coordination in which we communicate with them, we shake each other's hands, we thank them for the fact that they covered us and they gave us cover for the fact that we covered them and killed our boys with their fire. this accordingly protected us. and when we talk about these 100 10-millimeter mortars, that is, after a certain, let's say, the execution of the firing task, it is necessary to change positions as quickly as the artillerymen, which depends on the situation from the situation that is developing on the front edge of the contact line and looking at the mass offensive of katsaps already underway

, looking at what the target is. the main task is to hit the enemy and hit him. the formations hit his equipment, which we did. a 120 mortar is a very strong thing . he has a mine fragment explosion there with a lethal force of up to 400 m, and if it pierces that orc, then he actually has no armor, nothing will not help, especially since we all know that in most of them it is old soviet armor, that it is rusty

, that is why it coped very well. contact us was a lieutenant of the third freedom battalion of the rapid response brigade of the national guard of ukraine, artist roman konon, now if we try to recruit again, we will continue the conversation with him, i will remind you that mortars are one of the most effective ways to fight against these living waves of the russian military force and with such a good use of the mortar you can very quickly turn this living force into a dead one, now we are joining again roman would like to clarify and do you have the opportunity to compare the effectiveness of mortars of the 120s there, in particular, the soviet one production and the french ones, which we also got there with the help of which there are on special wheels, it is easier to drag them there , they say that they are rifled more precisely than the ones we usually use, of course , the latest development, the newest equipment, the newest

artillery - this is more accuracy, this is higher speed, the rate of fire is better accuracy and there are mines there, even those that are displayed in them to the taxpayer that there may be a rupture of a mine not by direct contact, but there is an anti-personnel fragmentation mine that it is detonated there somewhere 1.20 m above the ground level, and accordingly, the lumps do not go up, as a rule, in a cone, but on the contrary, go down, which, accordingly, even when these katsapnias fall and hide from it , the splinter goes from top to bottom and inflicts as much damage on them as possible . more modern weapons are needed and i sincerely hope that the agreements that our leadership has with the western partners will arrange as soon as possible the necessary supplies of installations and

ammunition and, accordingly, this will save more than one this life will save hundreds of lives and our guys and will bring thousands of victims and thousands of those occupiers that we will destroy thanks to this latest weaponry when we talk about increasing efficiency we are talking about new models but there are unique solutions regarding the automation of targeting when we are talking about this system nettle, do your divisions use these developments that allow you to speed up the process of detecting a body and preparing data for shooting, so we work on nettle? of course, it speeds up the process of data transmission. i am sincerely glad that katsapov has there is no such thing, but we have it, and accordingly, we have all these miscalculations that take the calculation of the mine’s flight path and from the coordinate to the coordinate there is a coordinate somewhere, the mortar stands to the target’s coordinate , this miscalculation takes a few seconds

, it is fully automated, our calculations, guys, of course, everyone they know how to calculate it in a manual format, because we all work on technology, of course , but you need to be able to do it the old way, because the technology can fail , can break, can be discharged there and there are many, many options, there is a plan, there is an option for how to work with it , but first of all, what we work on is, of course, step-by-step according to newer developments. in a minute they will have time to throw 3-4 mines very well, and this is with the reinstallation of the main guidance data there. and if there was a carp that now, for example, the enemy

does not have such things as much . to calculate it, it is necessary for the commander of the calculation to sit with a notebook and calculate through the direction angle . well, i can say for a long time that it is minutes compared to seconds. calculating it takes more time in any case because, well, it’s a piece of paper or notebooks, a hook and the guy has to sit and calculate, and when it’s all automated for you, it turns out that the process speeds up because you entered the coordinate coordinate data, transferred this data for direct calculation to the gunner, who is pointing, what is being pointed, another guy has already aimed projectiles into the mine of the third moped , he

has already thrown it completely. very, very long, depending on the need, depending on how the rod is translated , depending on what the target is, depending on what the range of the target is, a lot of factors affect it , but i assure you that for my boys with of the freedom battalion that we actually at the auction it is from the second mine clearly hit the target . the seventh group of 5 people is going for a target shooting. we already have experts in the freedom battalion. i am convinced that in other units and in the rapid response brigade there are those who already hit the second target, these are really cool specialists who can already train the new

guys, those who come in order to qualitatively work with mines and in fact, if a person already knows how to work with a mortar, then with other guns there, after a very short excursion of retraining, you can work with almost any artillery installations in our country, and mr. roman, here is an extreme question that concerns rather support than a military mission, do you use protected communication during interaction on the battlefield, not only motorola, but other radio stations that have a more powerful protection system. unfortunately, i cannot tell you directly on the air which one we we use the connection. of course, this is a protected connection, clearly because the katsap does not sleep, the katsap also tries to intercept it, and any interception of it then, unfortunately, has negative consequences for us, very negative consequences, and these consequences are because this is life,

someone can lose their life that's why information communication and information security is very important. it's one thing to cover the 120th like this, and another thing is to hide what we plan to cover and hide what our infantry or our intelligence is planning to do or something like that any other unit roman thank you for including thank you for your service for what you do to protect our country and i would like to remind our viewers that on the air of the espresso channel there was a lieutenant of the svoboda battalion of the rapid response brigade of the national guard of ukraine, gunner roman konon, and then serhiy joins us chepel, managing partner of the l3 harris company in ukraine and also the head of the radio sadkom group company, mr. serhiy . congratulations. thank you for joining the broadcast . congratulations. secure communication is an absolutely necessary

component in order for the mission to be correctly and planned and executed. you are directly related to the supply of secure radio stations of the harris company to ukraine, but here i would like to ask about the fact that we really receive a lot of these radio stations , but i do not always i see harris radio stations on the first line of conflict . directly, well, in the same trench, well, look here, the reasons are two, the first is insufficient quantity, and despite the multi-million, hundreds of millions of supplies of these radio stations, the armed forces still lack them precisely in the front line, on the line of contact, in particular , personal radio stations, these are portable radio stations that have all degrees of protection

absolutely living and everything else and another reason that often occurs in the units that have these radio stations in service is , unfortunately, the unwillingness or incompetence of their commanders apply unfortunately, there are objective reasons for this, i would not like to talk about it for a long time here now, it is a waste of time, well, when we talk about the special operations forces, which are the main consumers of harris products for the performance of various missions in the soviet union, the rate of use of these radio stations is higher than that of land ones troops, for example well, i would say that it is almost one hundred percent and unfortunately, i said that the volumes are not enough for these supplies , but not only the special operations forces , the marines, the assault units

are quite well equipped, and the training and the use of these stations, yes, in most motorized infantry units, they are not enough when you talk so carefully about the front edge about the efficiency of use, can it be argued that we were too relaxed using simple motorola radio stations that i turned on and immediately entered into communication at a small distance, but when we talk about harris, that is, a protected communication system , a well-developed system that works in fish conditions, then you still need to spend more time mastering this radio station, but then the profit will be greater from the fact that the unit will really be able to always perform tasks and always have communication , that is, more time is needed for preparation, this is also about this, but i would like to stand up for the motorola radio station, because there are tens and tens

of thousands of them, they are used quite a lot effectively , they are an infrastructural communication system, it involves the presence of repeaters and this does not mean that these radio stations are completely defenseless against the enemy's rebi means. the fact is that, to put it mildly, not all radio stations are equipped with an encryption system. they have this possibility. as-256 is a guaranteed stability, but one license costs $ 100 for one radio station , and well, the question arises. yes, it is expensive, but then the question arises: what is more important, the lives of people and the success of the mission, or this money, i don’t know somewhere? there are five, six, seven million dollars that need to be spent on this. i'm not judging the military leaders here. they know the possibilities of their budget, but i would think that it

should be done because my colleagues who have been fighting since the 14th year and are now in the war are professionals communication everyone is sure that secure communication should be applied at all levels of management , because certain commanders of different levels of command of the armed forces do not all share this opinion, they believe that at the company battalion level, secure communication is not necessary. i believe that this is wrong and my colleagues who directly take part in the hostilities support this opinion categorically, mr. sergi , without revealing military secrets. now , relatively speaking, we are preparing new brigades there, which are to be carried out in the future there. in a few months, well, the main task of breakthrough actions through the enemy's protected defense system, where will the enemy's means of attack be located and

where will communication be suppressed? does this mean that when preparing these new brigades, we should think not only about helicopters, planes, and tanks, but also about the component of protected communication and it is the harris radio station that should be, let's say, the basis, let's say, the nerve of the management of these new brigades, it can be concluded that the american side , understanding the importance of communication, will still give advice so that the use of these communication systems is at all levels, starting from command of the brigade and ending with the platoon, well, look, in fact, this process is developing in approximately this way. if the incoming equipment is so intelligent, it is definitely equipped, it is partially equipped, and this process is very active and it goes on constantly as new samples of equipment are received from
