Russia Initiates Deployment of Howitzers Near Finland Border, Commences Mass Production

Russia is deploying new Coalition SV autonomous artillery units, specifically Howitzers, near its northern military district bordering Finland and Norway.
The chairman of the rosc State Defense conglomerate stated that testing of the new artillery units is complete, and mass manufacturing has commenced, with the first pilot batch expected by the end of 2023.
The deployment is aimed at providing an advantage over Western artillery models in terms of firing range, with the howitzers having a range of up to 70 kilometers and a modern 152 mm caliber cannon firing more than 10 rounds per minute.
The decision to deploy these artillery units comes in the context of heightened tensions, as Russia recently launched a strike on a train station in the Ukrainian city of Kon, resulting in casualties, and issued a warning of continued drone bombardment.
The move also follows a Ukrainian attack that damaged a Russian warship in the occupied Kian Port of Theodosia, acknowledged by the Kremlin, which was considered a severe setback for the Russian Navy.
