The 2A28 Grom is the main armament of the BMP-1, it is essentially a 73mm recoilless gun, in the last six months there have been a series of sightings of Russian troops testing 2A28s which have been dismounted from vehicles and mounted on craft-made or repurposed carriages for use as infantry support guns.
Correction: I said recoilless gun, I should have said low pressure gun!
