Koalitsiya-SV

Russia’s next-generation tracked 152 mm self-propelled howitzer—a fully automated, crew-isolated design intended to replace the 2S19 Msta-S and bring a claimed reach beyond 70 km, though still in limited, pre-mass-combat introduction.

Russia’s next-generation 152 mm tracked self-propelled howitzer—a fully automated, crew-isolated design with a claimed reach of 70 km and beyond, intended to replace the 2S19 Msta-S but still in limited introduction and untested in mass combat.

Overview

The 2S35 Koalitsiya-SV (Coalition-SV) is a tracked self-propelled howitzer under development by Uralvagonzavod / Uraltransmash for the Russian Ground Forces. It pairs a 152 mm L/52 cannon with a full-autoloader inside an unmanned turret, while the crew of three operates from an isolated armoured capsule at the front. The design aims to deliver higher rates of fire, longer range, and better survivability than the current 2S19 Msta-S fleet. As of early 2026, however, the system remains in low-rate introduction, with no verified mass deployment to the war in Ukraine.
