In a Mot Rfl Regt there is an air defence battalion with most of the times a Tunguska (SA-19) battery, a Strela (SA-13) battery and a MANPAD battery. These trucks with a ZU-23-2, were do these fit in? Is it in place of the MANPAD battery or one of the tracked AD missile vehicle batteries?

Sincerely,
Lesley
