Ukrainian army continues to use Iranian-made shells

At the end of 2022, 122-mm OF-462 shells, produced in Iran in 2022, were first seen in service with the Armed Forces of Ukraine. However, it recently became clear that the Ukrainian army is using even newer shells produced already in 2023, the Military Informant Telegram channel reports, citing a photograph of a shell with the corresponding marking.

“The constant appearance of more and more fresh stocks of shells from Iran produced in just the last few months is difficult to explain only by the transfer of captured weapons from Iranian naval convoys to the Armed Forces of Ukraine,” the resource notes.
