In Ukrainian service it provides mobile area-fire and counter-battery rocket artillery during the Russia-Ukraine War.
M-46130 mm towed field gunSide: UkraineBuilt: Motovilikha Plant / Soviet UnionThe M-46 is a Soviet 130 mm towed field gun built for long-range counter-battery and field-artillery missions. Its high-velocity gun and roughly 27 km standard range made it unusually far-reaching for its generation, and Croatia-supplied M-46H1 guns gave Ukraine additional non-NATO-caliber tube artillery during the Russia-Ukraine War.
2A36 Giatsint-B152 mm towed field gunSide: Russia / Ukraine / Armenia / ArtsakhBuilt: Perm Machine-Building Plant / Soviet UnionThe 2A36 Giatsint-B is a Soviet 152 mm towed field gun built for long-range indirect fire and counter-battery work. Its 49-caliber barrel gives it greater reach than many older Soviet 152 mm systems, and Ukrainian forces have fielded the type during the Russia-Ukraine War, including likely Finnish 152 K 89 guns supplied from Finnish stocks.
2S35 Koalitsiya-SV152 mm tracked self-propelled howitzerSide: RussiaBuilt: Uraltransmash / RussiaThe 2S35 Koalitsiya-SV is a Russian 152 mm tracked self-propelled howitzer developed as a highly automated successor to the 2S19 Msta-S, pairing a 2A88 gun, uncrewed turret, automated loading, digital fire-control features, and a T-90-derived chassis for long-range tube-artillery missions. Its appearance in the Russia-Ukraine War has been reported in limited numbers, with open-source conflict reporting emphasizing counter-battery use and uncertainty around official confirmation.
2S43 Malva152 mm wheeled self-propelled howitzerSide: RussiaBuilt: Uraltransmash / RussiaThe 2S43 Malva is a Russian 152 mm wheeled self-propelled howitzer that mounts a 2A64 gun on an 8x8 BAZ chassis, trading the turreted protection of tracked systems for road mobility, lower operating cost, and faster deployment. It is part of Russia's newer wheeled artillery family and has been documented with Russian forces during the Russia-Ukraine War.
