#Ukraine: Another Ukrainian MT-LB-12 self-propelled 100mm gun in action in #Bakhmut, firing 3UBK8M HEAT rounds at Russian forces. This is an improvised vehicle made from an MT-LB chassis and T-12 AT gun- compared to a standalone gun this has improved elevation angles/mobility. Fenix Insight: To the best of our knowledge based on the source images and video: 3UBK8 or 3UBK8M 100 mm HEAT-FS-T rounds; and 3BK16 or 3BK16M projectiles. As the markings are not visible, the exact model cannot be conclusively identified. See also: https://twitter.com/Osinttechnical/status/1603657937632825345
