0004668: Direct Fire Mode for 2S3
The rangefinder of the 2S3M1 SPG isn't very useful. It fails to calculate barrel angle correction in all firing modes except Semi(close) and even then it only does it "sometimes".

In real life the 2S3M1 has been quite extensively used in a direct fire role for close tactical support such as removing fortified positions in urban combat or following tanks closely in battle to suppress ATGM launchers. So I think it would not be unethical to enable its use in such a manner.
1. Get in 2S3M1 artillery as gunner
2. Try hitting something with direct fire
Maybe add a dedicated direct fire variant like with the D-30 static artillery?

The vehicle doesn't need a laser rangefinder. Just a reliable and understandable way to adjust firing range. Being able to adjust range in standard increments of 100m instead of angle could help.
