Historical and Technical Information

The A-222 Bereg artillery system was developed in the late 1980s and early 1990s in the Soviet Union, and is currently used by the Russian Federation. The main purpose of the system is the protection of coastlines and naval ports against surface threats, including fast enemy ships. The remarkable Bereg set, featuring a 130 mm gun mounted on the MAZ-543 heavy truck chassis, is one of the largest and most advanced land-based systems of this type. The system made its official debut during the Cold War era (early 1990s) and remains in active service with the Russian Armed Forces to this day. An example deployment took place on the shores of the Black Sea, where Bereg complexes were positioned to protect strategic ports such as Novorossiysk.
