A higher viscosity lube is needed on the belt loader.
The way it was squeaking/grating is an indication of a short lifetime for the tool.
I think the sound is from when the bullet enters the belt. Where it should be stuck in place.

Same here. 👏
that's because you're in Chicago
That's because there is more gunfire in Chicago than in Ukraine
No that’s just Chicago.
Developed in 1950's, good for mostly slow low flying aircraft like propeller planes. Might be effective at shooting incoming helicopter convoys and most of what Russia is sending in terms of light armoured vehicles and PC's. You will not hit any fighter jets with that thing but would tear up infantry! It's old but so is a lot of the vehicles and armour in Europe making it still effective today in those regions. With a 30 second deployment time it makes it effective at hit and run attacks from staged positions and can be fired from the travelling position for emergencies.
Jeff W. They would be effective if the helicopters were coming towards or away where you wouldn’t have to lead them.
What do yo think?
@@rogerdickinson920 there is a video of 2 Russian helicopters getting rekt by ZU-23
I thought more anti-aircraft , thanks,
mainly being fired at helicopters and tos-1(thermobaric rocket launcher) or light apc and they're doing VERY good work russia is getting destroyed
The ZU-23 has shot down large numbers of jet aircraft. In reference to Vietnam... Given that 83% of the USAF losses came from ground fire, the ZU-23 was probably responsible for shooting down hundreds of aircraft.[18]
When i was in Polish Army in 2008-2009 i had the opportunity to learn to use it and perform a maintenance. That gun i had was from 1960 if i remember correctly.
I, too, trained in the army to use this cannon. It had the nickname "Sergey" in Finland. A surprisingly powerful weapon when you get to see and experience it in real life.
If you have a look when they were loading the shells, some had different colour markings on them is that what they call tracer bullets

@@darthhamo7568 Yes. Tracer bullets.
I saw years ago Toyota Landcruisers with a canvas top over the rear that had a remote controlled 50 cal. It could be raised and shot from the front seat, and until the gun was up it looked like a regular 100 series Landcruiser. I wish Toyota would have this as an option.

0:59 “troszkę w lewo”. It was for sure Polish language meaning: “a little bit more to the left” (not sure how US military would say that in more compact way)

"left a bit" is probably the most compact way to say that ;)
This is why they are doing so well. American training NATO and others is a huge deal. We have the best military in the world and the best trained.

Everyone in the Russian Army should all turn around and head back to Russia and take back their country from a madman. It would be more honorable to die trying to save their families and the world from a Nuclear war than dying for the conquest of Ukraine. Tell the Russian soldiers before it is to late for the world.

@@HanSolo__ I agree. No one person can make that decision. USA, Russia or China
I recall a Pole I worked with 20 years ago who had been in the Polish army during the Warsaw Pact days. He was in an AA unit, I think with these weapons. Anyway they were on exercise with their allies and weren’t happy with the meat rations. Well he he said that they always squirreled away a few rounds from live fire in case they lost some so they wouldn’t get in trouble.
Well they saw a lone cow at a farm and a few rounds improved the company rations. The Soviet officers were pissed but couldn’t prove they fired, the Polish company commander knew what happened but enjoyed the fruits of the labor and the higher Polish command battalion or regimental probably knew but really didn’t care. It was after all not a Polish cow.
Lol damn, I bet that made a mess of the cow
@@MrRedeyedJedi Don’t know Andrew as we knew him, he explained the Polish equivalent but I don’t remember was part of the company but not part of the gun crew as I understood. Furthermore he lived the whole of his early life in Warsaw and as an urbanite didn’t take part in the acquisition or processing, just the cover up and benefits.
It may be that they had armor piercing or other non explosive ammunition but this is me remembering from a conversation 20 years ago about events that took place 12-20 years before that.
I seem to recall that he wasn’t a fan of the Russians but thought that the US put out propaganda as well to a lesser degree which I viewed as fair enough.
He got an engineering degree in Poland before the fall of the iron curtain so I think that he was likely in a communications or clerical role.

@@tuomoaalto5654 thanks
I wonder how the designers and builders of these weapons would react if you could have gone back in time and told them that these weapons that they are making to ostensibly defend themselves against NATO would instead be used to destroy themselves.
It's called divide and conquer, Sir. While Russia and Ukraine are busy fighting their brothers, the West can just sit on the side lines and see the whole thing crumble. I mean Biden's son was only in Burisma to cash in some quick money, right. The bio-labs American officials have admitted to had nothing to do with it..............
They are being used to fight for freedom. I bet the Russian Designers and Fabricators who developed them would be glad they are being used against a tyrant like Putin, just as most Russian people are against the war. I love Russian Engineering. It is strong, like the Russian people.
Их используют для борьбы за свободу. Бьюсь об заклад, русские конструкторы и производители, разработавшие их, были бы рады, что их используют против такого тирана, как Путин, точно так же, как большинство россиян против войны. Я люблю русскую технику. Он сильный, как русский народ.

@@user-nz5iw4te6c dude I hope you can translate this but I think nato weapons are kinda stronger than russian weapons due to more people developing weapons in nato than russia so stop whine like a russia fan girl
@@user-nz5iw4te6c uhhhmm sir I think you should ask yourself the same question why also your soldiers still die from their weapons? Well there is no perfect weapon than can make you immortal, whats more important is how effective they are, your russian tanks can't even go inside kyiv without dying in a javelin and you don't even have air supremacy over ukraine and also btw the independent journalism you're talking about exist, they're capturing photos of every bombings that land on civilians for no apparent reason
"It'll blow your neighborhood clean off."
In Texas this is considered ankle holster friendly.
Yea, fired this zu-23-2 cannon in the military. Our distance to targets were about 1600 meters. First pair of shots hit and all others went over.
We were trained to shoot shortest possible bursts to see where the fire is going. Best "aimers" were the guys with fastest feets. Not everyone could kick one shot per zu-23-2 barrels, goddamit!
Forgot to mention that this AA-cannon is nicknamed "Sergei" in Finnish military.
These guys are firing far more deadly stuff than when I was training (infantry) over 30yrs ago in Grafenwöhr.
Impressive. Impressive indeed. Glad that I'm too old to fight any more.
They are also modified and built gheir own weapons off tanks, helicopters, etc from abandoned Russians.
They are also building and modifying weapons from abandoned tanks, helicopters, armored vehicles, etc and building weapons out
Shrug, in the 80's as a TOW gunner, our priority was to take out a zsu-23-4 over a tank, unless the tank was closer. Same with the zsu-57. We had to preserve our air superiority. The TOW was too valuable an asset to use on a mere truck, because firing it gave away the location and we had a pretty good chance of being toast shortly afterward, given their numerical superiority (Warsaw Pact) in artillery. The fact these are even still in use is incredible. It would be like us pulling out a French 75 and telling the National guard to go get 'em.
@@durgan5668
Same with the Dragon, it left too much of a signature (smoke location) to be sitting there for 8 or 10 seconds to impact it's maximum target range (then presumably 1000m) to guide in on... manually.
Which is why I set in my mind I would never sit there and try to guide that bastard for so long.
Да это ролик с учений 2017 года, хорош
Enfin le combat complet ❤️👍
This is one of my all time favorite weapons
If there had to be all this production and shot taking, a POV of the gunner would have been nice
You look like someone that wants to ruin their camera with this recoil.
They're great with the HE ammo. Anti personnel and anti aircraft.
Good for home defence
I wouldn't doubt that this would be effective to wreck most vehicles, including BRDM, and disabling light tanks treads and fuel tanks. Well-placed shots could penetrate light-plated areas of BMPs, killing the crew inside.
You would be correct. On a truck, good in urban environments, maneuverability is the key ... smash convoys and then MOVE!
And it still can engage vehicles and infantry anyway. As you can see.
@@jaclyncarney3244 may aswell be sat in the middle of a bullseye on one of these
AA guns used as anti vehicle building and personnel weapons have a long an devastating history.. in its trailed form it sits low to the ground so hard to spot if dug in or sandbagged and camouflaged. ..this is x more deadly than a pair of Browning 50s. Just because they are training/ target shooting with it does not mean that it cannot rip an APC in half...or a house ...
Being high up on the back of a truck out in the open is a V bad place to be ...
But these things were built to keep firing in all sorts of conditions.. that generally mess up newer weapons.
A forward sniper protection shield might help.
@@jaclyncarney3244 Just put it on a heavy truck and do your homework with the recoil mitigation systems, and you are good at aiming vehicles with not more than 3 rounds at a time.
This isn't how the ZU-23 was meant to be fired with a cyclic rate of 4000 rpm and a practical firing rate of 400 rpm, but then it becomes a 24/7 operation to jack rounds into a belt.
Dude, it has absurd recoil. If he aims at 600m a vehicle every 4th shell goes into the skies. Look how it rocks this 8t+ truck. This ain no pick-up by Toyota and it has a recoil mitigation system and hydraulic stabilizing of the whole truck. In Poland, we carry and use it even on 6x6 trucks and it still rocks them like no tomorrow. This is the way of using it flat not the choppers.
Its true in planes, but in land target they teach as to kick fast so that it only fires 2 or 3 round at time. Its rather fun two man gun to shoot. First guy set target direction and speed and other turns guns sight to target and push two pedals down, brake and tricker.
@@hiivatti67 yep.. i was part Sergei team (loader) and they really teach to use short burst.. then you correct aim little and short burst again.. and repeat
Slava Ukraine !!! Viva gruZ 200 :-)))
Very good for the Tchétchènes salafiste, slava ukraini

They are firing at ground targets. This reminds me of the WWII German 88 which was designed to be anti aircraft but was used to deadly effect on ground targets. This would shred a truck full of supplies or troops.
DESDE ARGENTINA🇦🇷🇺🇦💙💛
Rusia is the best.....URAAAAAA !!!
These were intended to be used in battery formation against all aircraft, radar controlled to put a wall of lead in sky in front of jets,let jets fly into lead,not try and track moving jets.Thats why they were mounted in fours on truck,ie ZSU-23-4.
Better off using it to ambush ground forces.
How come 🧐

@@Blazen747 looks like it was designed to shoot down propeller planes

Very creative military ! Bravo Ukraine !👍✌👏
That is one mean anti-anything gun. Well it probably won't kill a well armored tank but it would definitely make crew shit themselves lol
Idk it has to you seen how mean asf it looked especially them rounds should aleast take like 4/6 of them to take a well armored tank out
@@treysosa683 The rounds do not have a hard enough core nor the right type of explosive for tanks. It might take out a T72 from the 70s with 15 rounds or so but real life isn't a movie. Rounds like that would bounce off any modern tank. It frequently takes 3 or 4 RPG or Rocket rounds to decommission a Tank and the crew may survive. There's a video of a Ukrainian APC shooting 30mm rounds into a Russian BMP and it took like 25 rounds just to catch it on fire. The newest Russian T14 is like the M1a1 Abrams. Only a round with a tungsten penetrating core could realistically destroy one and it still wouldn't do much head on, it would have to be shot from the rear or through thin armor on the side. These soldiers are fucked against anything modern.
@@alaneichelberger3014 For a tank, you can only really hope to destroy the optics and stuff outside and that is also for modern tanks. Russians dont have the T14 operational. This is really for helos and maybe apcs
@@burgundilainenkeikari6908 id try to camouflage them in areas where I can ambush infantry. But that’s just me.
@@alaneichelberger3014 yeah, except there are no any t14s in Ukraine. Even in Russia, because it turned out expensive

This is an amazing round for low flying anything the 14.5mm is the best round for the size ever made..
Unlike the ZPU, this is 23mm.
@@mkh123 the zpu 4 has the 14.5mm it has a range of 8km if it touches an aircraft at that distance that plane is going down

I'd be handling those big boys a little more carefully than they are.🙄
It's not a movie they cant explode that easily, even if they did explode there is no enough pressure to accelerate that bullet outside of the barrel. Casing would burst and let all of the pressure out.
@@markoajduk7096 that is the theory, but in practice those bullets can fire the slug just fine. years ago I emptied a box of wood into the stove, I looked in and saw some bullets and had time to think "oh Crap" several went off and punched holes through the stove, the wall and the ceiling.
