The 120 mm SPG "Lotus" of Russia has begun to undergo state tests. It is worth noting that the SPG "Lotus" has already passed more than 130 types of tests, including tests for firing range and transportation, and has been tested in combat. The SPG "Lotus" is intended for airborne units and will replace the SPG "Nona", which has been in service since 1981. The SPG "Lotus" is 1.5 times superior to the SPG "Nona-SM" in firing range. The SPG "Lotus" is created on a chassis unified in units and assemblies with the BMD-4M.
