The 200th High-Power Artillery Brigade (military unit 48271) was formed on December 1, 1974, in the Transbaikal Military District, and since 2010, it has been part of the 29th Combined Arms Army of the Eastern Military District. It is armed with high-power artillery: 203-mm 2S7 'Pion' self-propelled guns and 300-mm 9K58 'Smerch' MLRS (over 70 barrel and rocket artillery systems). In February 2025, by presidential decree, the brigade was awarded the honorary title 'Guards' – the decree's wording links the award to the 'mass heroism and courage' of its personnel in defending the interests of the Russian Federation, thereby de facto confirming the brigade's participation in the war against Ukraine. No specific data on its areas of deployment or losses has been found in open sources.
