Actually, you didn’t mention “Afghan” version of ZSU-23-4. While war in Afghanistan soviet troops lacked high fire rate anti-personnel weapon with high elevation to cover from Mujahideen that was ambushing roads and camps. BMP-1 had too low rate of fire and not that high enough elevation to shoot up to the mountains (partially because of that BMP-2 has 30mm gun with high elevation). So soviets removed radar system from “Shilka” and installed additional boxes of munitions, so it increased stocks of munitions up to 4000 rounds. That modification of Shilka was in service during almost all of Afghanistan war. P.S. Sorry for my bad English, I’m Russian. By the way, thanks for your videos, Matt. I’m learning some of what Englishman thinks about Russian military equipment.

@@ricardosoto5770 no one is updating it because 23mm was long ago deemed too small of a caliber. In contrast 30mm shells can be used with both programmator or straight up proximity fuze. Hence new ammo on modernized Tunguska and modern Panzir. Not to mention those two can serve as de facto CIWS nowadays being able to detect and intercept even mortar shells. As for drones, the problem is distance. 30mm has better reach, but still not enough for a scout that just hangs 10km away. And when you can buy hundreds of them for 200$, shooting them down with missiles that costs hundred times that is not an option. Hence why 57mm is coming back.

An extremely effective spaag system. Extremely effective. And quite deadly in target suppression if needed.

I decided to look up the Russian/Soviet 23 mm round. I never realized, just for this ZSU-23 alone that there were over 10 different rounds available for it. There are over 20 different 23mm rounds and half of them are not compatible with the ZSU-23. The things I dig for and learn after watching your videos.

It is also capable to fire against ground targets, of course... Also, it can be fired without radar tracking, using optics. That gives less warning to its target, but it is, of course, less accurate as well.

In Afghanistan the Shilka was sometimes used as an ad hoc gun truck to defend convoys. A task it could perform admirably. If the guns were overheated, they would cook off rounds until all the ammo was expended. Therefore, convoy commanders chose to place the Shilka's 1 or 2 klicks in front of or behind the convoy for self protection.

Saw this one couple of times shooting drones with explosive rounds. It still does its job well.

in somalia, we splitted all these four guns into one by one, and we mounted on smaller, faster, quicker and flexible Toyota Landcruisers. they become very effective against armored American light vehicles and their infantry in the EVENT OF BLACK HAWK DOWN 1993. the Americans were both shocked and surprised by this single gun and this tactics, so they retreated after 13 hours of very very intensive fighting with out any progress, mainly because of this gun. besides i have nothing against Americans as long as they are respecting the others. any way this gun suppose to be anti air gun, but we could not challenge the Americans in the air, so we had to wait the ground troops with a russian anti aircraft guns instead, very simple. this gun can reach them long before they reach you and it can penetrate most of their armored vehicles. so split it and mount it on the roof your house or on your 4 wheel drive, it has been tested on the toughest marines in the world and they run away from it believe me.

After seeing this I really wonder about the CV90 airdefence units. Would be awsome to know what its capabilety is . Mayne in relation with Shilka and western equivalents. Really like your videos.

Great video. We need tunguska and successors review

Was my favorite tank in "Operation Flash Point:Cold War Crisis" game when i was a child. Now i realize this is actually an Anti-Aircraft :)

During my time in service in the cold war time, this was always considered a priority target. If this was active, no helicopter support for us.

I love russian armor and anti air weapons

The gas turbine is an Auxiliary power unit for powering the electronics of the radar and the fire control system, which on the majority of the models used an electro-mechanical computer system and thermionic valves . The main engine for driving the thing is a V-6R, 6-cylinder 4-stroke airless-injection water-cooled 20-litre diesel engine. The system was almost useless at night and bad weather if the target employed chaff or active ECM, but if it could see a target with its optical system was it was still quite lethal.

Who made that 3D model? The level of detail is insane.

I was a cold war Cav trooper and yes, we were told that the Shilka was a priority target and ground units wouldn't receive air support until identified units were destroyed.

Love those urban camouflage schemes.

oh shit...this shilka is very intimidating in operation flashpoint game by codemaster....great anti aircraft tank

Hey does anyone know what that music was during the intro?, sounded awesome :D

Speaking of tracked vehicles I would love to get a hold of an old M551A1 Armored Reconnaissance/ Airborne Assault Vehicle. The problem is they are mostly artificial reefs and hard targets in impact areas. There are probably a handful of these vehicles worldwide.

I remember slaughtering everyone in arma 2 servers with the shilka, such a beast!

You should have talked about it's use against ground targets. This isn't an outdated Soviet system for that role. The Syrian Arab Army are using them today against Jihadists. When the Damascus government retook the city of Ghouta in 2018, they used them in conjunction with tanks. That was fighting in built up areas and the Shilka had the elevation to blast sniper nests out of high rise apartment blocks. Pretty brutal stuff. I also believe that the Shilka has an advantage over "Technicals" or Jihadi Wagons, 4X4 pick-up trucks mounted with similar weapons (a ZU-23-2) . As it has a quad mount and armor protection.

Jake Dee quite true

Nice day at the beach, don't forget your shilka protection. Spf 1000

Ngl thats one good looking Tank Destroyer

Next you should analyse M53/59 Praga AA system, twin 30 mm auto cannons. Absolutely brutal as an infantry support vehicle.

So cool

Anyone who played Jane's Longbow 2 will remember these.
