Creation of Another Artillery Brigade Confirmed

The Armed Forces of Ukraine are forming a new artillery brigade in the Ground Forces. This was revealed by fundraisers on social media platforms such as Facebook and Instagram, the 50th Artillery Brigade is already operating in the Sumy and Chernihiv directions of the frontline, performing combat tasks. The artillery brigade also has its own Facebook social channel.

MilitaryLand has recently uncovered, as the first news outlet, the creation of multiple artillery brigades, which are being formed as part of the transition of the Armed Forces to the corps – brigade structure.

These included the 52nd Artillery Brigade as part of the 3rd Army Corps, the 54th Artillery Brigade as part of the 17th Army Corps, the 60th Artillery Brigade as part of the 20th Army Corps, the 68th Artillery Brigade as part of the 21st Army Corps, and finally, the 147th Artillery Brigade as part of the 7th Rapid Response Corps in the Air Assault Troops.

The Final Artillery Brigade

The newly revealed 50th Artillery Brigade is the final brigade to be formed and assigned under the corps formations. It is expected to become part of the 14th Army Corps, which has not yet had an artillery brigade integrated into its structure.

The 49th Artillery Brigade, last mentioned on June 13, 2024, likely no longer exists. Meanwhile, the 43rd Artillery Brigade — the only unit of the Armed Forces of Ukraine operating both the 2S7 Pion and PzH 2000 systems — remains outside the corps structure and continues to operate independently.
