I recently found a chart that appeared on a military forum about ten years ago titled about APFSDS used by Soviet tanks.
The data recorded here about the ammunition for the 2A83 tank gun piqued my interest.
Because last month the famous online game "War Thunder" went online with an experimental 292 engineering tank using the 152 gun.
The shell data in it is identical to the mishmash of three shell indicators on this chart.
Then there are enthusiastic people can popularize the Soviet 152mm APF Image_1709995585754.jpg Image_1709995587047.jpg 1706181121902.jpeg SDS.
 
This cannon was created for the "object 477" and all its variations, the latest of which was the "Note". Also object 195 (T-95) and 152 mm "Armata"
 
Were the front two cylinders also revolving and able to automatically reload the main cylinder? What about those separate charges in the center of them? It looks like they don't have enough of those for the number of shells.

Quite a formidable looking gun, no wonder the US Army and others on this side of the iron curtain were working on those 140mm cannon projects.
