RIA Novosti: new projectiles "Krasnopol-M2" are able to choose a target

The upgraded ammunition "Krasnopol" is able to independently choose a target.

The latest version of the Russian corrected ammunition "Krasnopol" has the ability to independently select a target in the event of massive strikes using this weapon. Until now, artillery mounts could not produce volleys of Krasnopol corrected ammunition, however, thanks to the improvement of these shells, they will be able to independently hit targets, harmonizing them.

As follows from the information provided, the ammunition is independently aimed at its targets by target designation or by laser illumination, which makes it possible to carry out only strikes, while the ammunition will independently approach the target.

“In the course of testing a new weapon system, simultaneous salvo firing of Krasnopol-M2 guided projectiles from two guns was carried out at a group target consisting of a decommissioned tank and a target shield. At the same time, each projectile was aimed individually at a specific target due to their illumination by ground-based laser designators-rangefinders in different radiation modes., - reports the news agency "RAI Novosti".

Whether the new corrective ammunition was used in real combat conditions has not yet been specified.
