Media: French self-propelled howitzers show good results in Iraq

The five CAN-S 155-mm self-propelled howitzers of the French army located at the Iraqi base Kayara-Zapadnaya are likely to be moved north closer to the front line, reports bmpd with reference to the newspaper L'Opinion.

“The explanation is simple: the CAESAR 155-mm / 52 cannon has a range of 40 km. Most of the centers of resistance of the Islamic State (banned in the Russian Federation), which were in reach from the Kayara-Zapadnaya base, are being destroyed, and the epicenter of the battle is shifting east of Mosul, at a distance of 65 km from the base. That is, the artillery must relocate, ”the author writes.



According to the newspaper’s source, the self-propelled howitzers and the French gunners themselves, who are part of the operational group Vagram, “are very impressive with their capabilities,” since they can “put a projectile from a distance of 40 kilometers within a meter from the target.”

Now cheers patriots and turn around the French sau ....

But you ran first and now I wonder why?
Judging by the video, their work was not impressive, it’s understandable that the horizontal angle of fire is not large, that their base chassis is very stressed and it’s interesting how much it lasts, that after the shot the barrel is swinging, which reduces accuracy and rate of fire .

because they can "put a shell from a distance of 40 kilometers in a radius of a meter from the target."

I wonder what attempt? And what is required for this, what infrastructure?

Quote: veteran66

Yes? And what will it be for me? After all, it is already clear that if in reality these artillery systems are capable of putting a projectile in a radius of 1 meter at a distance of 40 km, then the merit of these guns is only in the fact that they were able to drop it there, but accuracy, everything is on the bill. It is clear that it is ADJUSTABLE, so I wonder what they use for this? And what is the price of such a projectile.

Yeah, the dark forest on the forum ...... I will spend a short educational program.
Piston locks, opened after firing manually, were widely used in the 40s of the last century. At present, wedge locks are used, the opening of which occurs automatically after a shot due to the use of recoil energy, simultaneously with the automatic extraction of the sleeve.
Than write shnyaga, better keep silent ....
And I am silent about separate loading, since unitary ammunition is used only in anti-tank artillery (MT-12 Rapira).

The use of a piston shutter in the guns is due only to the fact that they do not use cartridge case, but cartridge loading.

[Mountain shooter]

Shooting goes idle. Save trunks resource during training. Accordingly, there is no recoil and the automation does not work (or rather, a semiautomatic device for opening the shutter when the barrel rolls back).

In the video, they’re just banging idle-there’s no rollback, the shell would go, the barrel would have rollback

Do not tell people, is it really not visible that there is no load on the chassis when firing (the wheels of the earth do not touch). Something like our D-30, only that trailed.
For information, after each shot, the gunner's duty is to restore the sight, again aiming the gun at the aiming point and restoring the level. So, the "swinging of the barrel" in any way does not affect either the accuracy or the rate of fire.
The sight is not restored only when shooting a quick fire - but this is clearly not the case.

[PPD]

And the front wheels it does not rest on the ground? Who laughs whom ??

[Sharapov]

Quote: PPD

And she doesn’t lean on the ground with her front wheels

During a shot, the load on the front wheels is minimal, the front even "throws up" a little, due to the presence of a "shoulder" between the exact support and the direction of the barrel rollback.
So do not worry about the chassis.

Listen, you are talking about the same thing as me. The front throws up and the frame accordingly receives a BENDING load, or is it not? What is the argument?

[Indifference]

And when the kamazik rolls along the path, the wheels also bounce and if it is loaded, the frame also bends a bit, and that the machine went once and bobo - do not tell the people in the dump, people shoot at the video with an idle charge, the trunk has no rollback

You must have finished the Termehsopromatfismat.
I graduated from the artillery command school and to me even for bending, even for pulling load on ..at.
The main thing is that the adversary was defeated.

[PPD]

You have a good opinion about a regular truck, in fact. The distance between the front wheels and the point where the gun itself is installed, what is it? The front throws up And?
And freezes where tossed? This is not a gun carriage, this is a truck where instead of a crane the trunk was screwed.

Well, of course, now the French are "well, stupid"? It never occurred to you that even the ultimate load can be calculated and the frame can be reinforced, not to mention the fact that basic the load falls on the supports?

You know, he laughs well who laughs without consequences.

And where does one to the other? In fact, she stands with the front wheels on the ground. For me it would be better if she stood on all wheels, since what happens to the frame of the car, and it can be clearly seen how it Bends, well, it just won’t lead to anything good.
It would be better to learn from the Swedes, and you can see how the "Archer" twists the frame and this is at SIX points of support.

[muhomor]

And the Swedes have a cool system! But probably a little expensive!

[Stegosaurus Brontosaurus]

From the video, it was not clear what it was the fastest: either in the rate of fire, or in the deployment speed, or in speed along the highway.

[Lopatov]

They mixed up with the previous Swedish SG, Bandkanon 1A


That one really was a record holder for rate of fire. 14 shots in 45 seconds.

But she fired at the unitaries. Therefore, even under pressure from lobbying structures, only 26 were able to be imposed on the military.

There in the cockpit of the OMS there is a topographic satellite reference and a ballistic computer.

[russmensch]

Satellite linking allows you to only exactly get to the selected position at the given coordinates. At the same time, it’s not at all a fact that the car will not stand aft towards the shooting. Therefore, it must be oriented to the terrain according to the countries of the world. The ballistic computer allows you to calculate the firing range (assign a sight) to the target, if, again, its exact coordinates are known. But she will give turns from the main direction of fire only if she manually enter the data. Therefore, as far as I know, the SLA a priori should be connected with a KShMka like the SOB machine. With each gun, having your own computer operator is probably a great luxury. Although everything is possible there ... Money is probably not counted. After all, we have a sergeant on all self-propelled guns. At the same time, he does not need to be able to work on computing devices. And there goes specially trained people there? And still interesting, and who adjusts the fire? Over 40 km breaks can not be seen. So there should be observers with communications nearby?

But not cool - a range of 40 km? ...
I can also believe that we are talking about an active-reactive projectile. And the "accuracy" is more suggestive of just a corrected projectile ...
PS And there really are no optics ... but on the left there is a "console" under the visor. So the work of a corrected ammunition according to the transmitted target designation data (from a drone) with an ACS topographic reference is a more likely state of affairs.

Moreover, they are in another class. They should be compared with the German Donar, South African G6, Italian Porcupines, Yugoslav Danes and Serbian Susans.

[corporal]

Quote: Spade

"Archers" are bad SPGs.

Can you tell me why? The opinion of a specialist is very interesting.

[Lopatov]

Very small ammo in ammunition. It is impossible to carry out continuous fire on the enemy, required by the infantry, they will spend most of the time in battle on reloading sites.
It also creates problems with the use of specialized projectiles. For example, you need to blind the target with smoke. Normal SPGs will complete a firing mission as soon as it is received. "Archers" will go to the loading platform, take out high-explosive fragmentation, load smoke and go to shoot. In NN minutes.

That is, they created an expensive version of the MLRS with a large salvo time.

[Vladimir Postnikov]

There is no perfection in the world. But, you have a "well-established tactic" of application and interaction. You fit Archer into it too. But Archers are designed for different tactics, which is quite natural.
Yes, Archer will not be able to immediately support the smoke shell. And it's all?
As for the first argument, why should they come in a crowd to one common fire room, and then in a crowd leave to the site for reloading. Archer will definitely have a different tactic of use. I assume that there will be a "carousel" with a constant change of firing position. Yes, Caesar is cheaper, but, all other things being equal, Archer is obliged to defeat Caesar in a hypothetical duel.
Your experience is a valuable thing, but it is through your experience that you consider other systems. This is both an advantage and a certain disadvantage. And here I can only repeat that there is no perfection in the world. By the way, about the "usual tray", I answered you at the very end. The system refused to place it in the right place.
And one more note: the reduced (taking into account the whole system) cost of the MLRS shot will always be greater than the reduced cost of the Archer shot.

[Vladimir Postnikov]

Quote: Holoy

The Swedes have even better ...

Here the issue of quality / price indicator.
Lopatov, for example, is not interested in this indicator. He is only interested in quality. He is a soldier.
For me, for example, this is an important indicator. I am an engineer.
So it's a kind of "religious war".

But, you see, the Archers should be compared not with the ACS that you mentioned, but with the hypothetical ACS 2S35-1 ("Coalition-SV-KSH") based on Kamaz, which they still promise to make. If you are to be believed, "Petrel" is wasting money.

With which? This diagram is not visible. I only see that the parts of the shot are located longitudinally. In Archer, both the loading mechanism and the parts of the shot are located in the swinging part. This ensures the reliability of the automation. There all subtlety in conjugation.
It seems that in your scheme the loading is manual, as in the Caesar. Why is he better than Caesar?

None? Msta-S and the Coalition have ammunition in the turret. This means that only part of the problem has been solved, and the smaller one. But, with a tower. A similar solution is proposed for 2С35-1. In your diagram, I did not notice the turret.
So to make a complete and sufficiently reliable machine in relation to your circuit is a problem. And the bigger problem will be not with a modular charge, but with a projectile. Most of the problems are somehow solved. It all depends on the price of the decision.

[Lopatov]

Quote: Vladimir Postnikov

So to make a complete and sufficiently reliable machine in relation to your circuit is a problem.

No problem. A conventional manipulator with two degrees of freedom. Accepts a projectile from the ammo rack, brings it to the ramming line. It differs from the coordinator 2C19 and "Coalition" by the presence of one additional degree of freedom.
Two coordinators, charging and shell, will greatly increase the rate of fire.

In a manipulator with several degrees of freedom and in relation to the supply of a projectile, the gripper is the key. This is not the hand of man for you, where on 1 sq. cm of skin accounts for about two hundred receptors (sensors). Reliability and safety of the capture requires not only special gripping devices, but also special places of capture on the projectile, which must be provided for, and which will require constructive changes to the shells. With a mine easier. And you are right, for the charge you need another manipulator with its gripper.
If it is possible to create such inexpensive and reliable manipulators, then Archer will only have to smoke quietly aside. If a.

There is no "grabber" there. An ordinary tray is enough, the projectile and charge in which is held by its own weight.

Judging by how many Armata BShs are brought to equip, there will soon be enough of them ...

Yes, the comparison with the Coalition-SV is very competent. The French was introduced in 1994. Remind me what year is it now? And another question, why is it that there are only 5 French in Iraq that are so wonderful?

can "put a shell from a distance of 40 kilometers within a meter radius from the target."

Uncontrollable projectile? Let me doubt.
Or is it an expression from the category "... they may or may not put ..."?

I read the comments, it’s very funny to watch the kids disputes in the sandbox
I don’t understand, I want to ask a question. Are you with this French thing, where are you going to fight? Huh? Maybe in a nuclear or large-scale war ??? I don’t know her TTX, and I don’t want to know, but when exposed to aviation and missile weapons, the court judges by the deployment speed and the form of this shameful picnic, she lives, in terms of aviation and satellite, counter-battery radio reconnaissance, with such mobility as a pregnant hypopatam, from forces five minutes or a couple of shots)))
To clean terrorists leisurely, and the usual towed barreled artillery, more than for the eyes, I remember the footage of the battery -,,

But you ran first and now I wonder why?
Judging by the video, their work was not impressive, it’s understandable that the horizontal angle of fire is not large, that their base chassis is very stressed and it’s interesting how much it lasts, that after the shot the barrel is swinging, which reduces accuracy and rate of fire .

because they can "put a shell from a distance of 40 kilometers in a radius of a meter from the target."

I wonder what attempt? And what is required for this, what infrastructure?

Within a meter, it’s simply unrealistic at any attempt !!!! If only the shells are not guided, which is not specified

[Mountain shooter]

The storytellers are wooden. 40 km deviation meter! All my teachers of artillery science amicably turned over to ... At such distances, with Perfect training, Meteo and topographic location — God grant KVO 50 to get 50 meters. Without sighting - 200-300 meters. Well, if the ammunition is correctable by GPS, so where does the quality of the howitzer?
Although I must say - the system looks elegant - but this is artillery, not designed for confrontation with an equal enemy, when the response arrives in five minutes, an unarmored system with an open crew is DOOMED. ACS of the "Coalition" type is, of course, much more expensive than such artillery trucks, but to defeat it requires a direct hit, and at the distance of counter-battery combat it is completely random. And such batteries "on wheels" are covered with high-explosive shells firing "across the area" in a minute and a half.

Why such confidence that the answer will fly? Again 150mm systems from which something can fly in how much and in what quantities? After a kilometer as pigs not cut?

where such confidence? or from the principle that all adversaries are complete stupid people and you are Dartanyans?
it all depends not on technical characteristics, but on the ability of all arms of service to interact, to say with confidence what will arrive or not? Well, the whole thing is down ...

it is clear to each "patriots" that our howitzers are the most howitzer-have no analogues in the world and in general we have invented the first howitzer: 3

Do you even know what artillery howitzer is called?
oh yes ... you are a skunk ...

[barbiturate]

in my opinion, not a very successful model of a self-propelled howitzer - there is no way to protect a naked crew, ammunition too, you can’t really automate loading (it’s semi-automatic here, shells and charges are delivered manually), a very limited shelling sector (-48 gr. + 48g)
Here, the Swedish Archer here looks much more profitable and much more modern - the crew is protected during firing, loading is fully automatic and the fire sector is decently larger (-75gr + 75gr)
The French have one plus, but reinforced concrete - the price is very attractive and the operating costs are lower.
Well, the firing range is now almost the same for everyone, the weapons of all 52x are calibrated and are more determined by the projectile than the gun. The Dutch said bluntly, according to the results of using the German PzH 2000 howitzer in Afghanistan, that firing with an ordinary projectile at a range of over 20 km does not make sense - a very large dispersion, and after all this was called the best howitzer in the world by many.
So, the price decides)

[Operator]

Purely specifically branded French compromise / undershot - neither fish nor meat.

If you drive slippers, then the towed Msta-B will be cheaper, if used in a combined arms battle, then the Msta-S or Coalition-SV will be more effective.

Then why did you mention the words manipulator?
Is it all about the "regular tray"?
Then success to anyone who wants to get by with an ordinary tray. He has the opportunity to wipe his nose Swedes in terms of quality / price.

Because it is a manipulator.
After all, no one said that the working body of the manipulator must be seized.
All that is needed is a pipe with an emphasis on one of the ends.

Such systems are already operating at 2C19 and at the "Coalition"

We have already discussed this, that the ammunition on the 2S19 and on the "Coalition" fits into a closed rotating turret, which means it rotates with the turret. What does this have to do with the scheme you have given or with Caesar? This is a completely different design, moreover, open (dust, dirt, sand). Therefore, they gave preference to 2S35-1 (ie, the "Coalition") with a rotating tower to use ready-made solutions. You can make an automatic feed for the scheme you have provided. Definitely possible. I agreed with this initially. But the reliability of this scheme, its rigidity, will be questionable. The French have not yet automated their Caesar. What's stopping them? They could have done a longitudinal arrangement, as in the diagram, so that the shells would jump onto the "tray" from one "hole". Next is your manipulator with a tray. They are not in a hurry, however, for some reason.

Perhaps you already know. Maybe put the "Coalition" on this chassis? It's much better.
