“We have always favored unification because it is cheaper… The knowhow obtained during the design of the 2S35 Koalitsiya-SV gun can come in very handy in the development of the new coastal defense artillery systems,” Zakamennykh told RIA Novosti news agency.

Russia’s naval commander, Admiral Viktor Chirkov earlier announced a planned switch to coastal defense artillery systems of the type used by the ground forces. The new systems will be an upgrade of the existing ones and adjusted for use by the Russian Navy, the Admiral added.

The 2S35 Koalitsiya-SV self-propelled howitzer was presented for the first time to the public in April 2015 during rehearsals for the Moscow Victory Day parade.

The 2S35 can fire fully autonomously without any crew in the turret. The first batch of 12 2S35 152mm self-propelled howitzers was delivered to the armed forces in March 2015.

According to Russian military engineers, the new 2S35 can used high-explosive long-range precision-guided munitions with a maximum range of 70 km and high level of accuracy.

Standard equipment of the 2S35 Koalitsiya-SV includes NBC protection system, night vision, computerized fire control and screens for each members of the crew to control firing operations.
