100-mm anti-aircraft gun KS-19 - Soviet anti-aircraft installation. After the end of World War II, the Soviet Union adopted the 100 mm KS-19 and 130 mm KS-30.
The KS-19 is a heavy towed anti-aircraft gun that has largely disappeared from frontline arsenals due to the increased use of more efficient surface-to-air missiles. Because it is a towed gun, an external form of mobility was required, usually an AT-S Medium or AT-T Heavy tracked artillery tractor. The tractor carried a crew of 15 people, along with ready-made ammunition for the gun. Ammunition was loaded into the loading tray one shot at a time, and a well-trained crew could fire a maximum of 15 rounds per minute.
