Abstract

During the year of the war in Ukraine, the Russian side suffered unprecedented losses in human potential. This is a huge number, which also proves the use of technical achievements on a massive scale. During the war, the Ukrainian side used domestic weapons and those supplied by allied countries. Poland has become one of the largest arms donors. The Ukrainian side received a modular MSBS Grot carbine from Polish resources, the entire process of designing and manufacturing of which takes place in Fabryka Broni in Radom. So far, this carbine was most often used by the Territorial Defense Forces, and later by the operational troops of the Republic of Poland. Soldiers unanimously emphasize that it is a good, simple and comfortable weapon to use, and its use becomes almost intuitive. Practical testing of the carbine in real warfare in Ukraine resulted in interest in this type of weapon.
