It is reported about the creation in the Czech Republic of a new ACS DITA based on the battle-proven howitzer DANA

37

The Czech defense industry has released a new wheeled self-propelled howitzer. It was developed by the Excalibur Army.

The self-propelled howitzer, named DITA, is installed on the Tatra all-wheel drive chassis with an 8x8 wheel arrangement. The resource kratko-news.com writes about this.



DANA is considered one of the most famous representatives of Czech-made self-propelled artillery. Now in the Czech Republic, a new self-propelled gun DITA of 155 mm caliber has been created on the basis of the battle-proven DANA howitzer.

The product combines the firepower of a large-caliber howitzer with the mobility and protection of wheeled armored vehicles. The maximum firing range of the gun is 35 kilometers when using conventional shells. The use of high-precision ammunition allows you to hit targets at a distance of up to 50 kilometers. This technique is also distinguished by the ability to quickly change position, as well as high cross-country ability.

The modern on-board control system includes subsystems for diagnostics, navigation, and ammunition selection. It allows for automatic gun guidance and autonomous calculation of firing elements.

For the first time, the new DITA self-propelled howitzers can be seen in the capital of the United Arab Emirates at the IDEX-2021 exhibition, which will be held from 21 to 25 February, if the event is not rescheduled for sanitary reasons.

      And what is so outstanding that artillery should show? Modern wheeled artillery combines mobility and precision. And airmobility for large countries is also not an unimportant factor.

        Several Danes fired at Shyrokyne from the Ukrainian Armed Forces in 14-15, so the DPR counter-batteries did not get them then. Nimble, bastards!

          Don't spread fakes. The APU did not have Dan. Only as an exhibition sample at the exhibition and, if I'm not mistaken, in caliber 155. But if you provide evidence of shelling with these systems, I will, of course, apologize.

            Donetsk, November 19, 2016.

            Over the past day, servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine have concentrated about 20 pieces of equipment near the borderline with the DPR, including self-propelled mortars "Nona", as well as self-propelled guns "Dana" of Czechoslovak production.

            This was announced today by the representative of the Ministry of Defense of the Donetsk People's Republic Eduard Basurin.

            According to him, in total, DPR intelligence found in the villages of Kamenka, Telmanovsky District and Krutaya Balka Yasinovatsky, one kilometer from the contact line, six Nona self-propelled mortars with a caliber of 120 mm, as well as a 152-mm self-propelled howitzer Dana Czechoslovakian production.

            Further Basurin added that eight 152-mm Akatsia self-propelled howitzers were found north of Donetsk, in the Avdiivka area (this is five kilometers from the contact line), and four 10-mm self-propelled howitzers were found in Krasnohorivka, 122 kilometers from the contact line. self-propelled howitzers "Hyacinth" .https: //nahnews.org/966665-dnr-razvedka-obnaruzhila-u-linii-fronta-v-donbasse-sau-dana

              Our reconnaissance revealed in the temporarily occupied territories of the DPR a self-propelled 152 mm howitzer vz.77 "DANA", which were produced in the Czech Republic and are in service with the countries of Eastern Europe.

                        This news a month somewhere, if not more. It is connected with the fact that dill began the Dan procurement process. The questions of price were raised, but most importantly, news flashed that in the Czech Republic they had just started REFITTING and modernization. On the video you proposed - Poland, if I'm not mistaken.
                        It is not yet given in the territory of Dill. I monitor their sites, I'm sure the arrival of the first installations will be presented very pompously.
                        So you can apologize. And fakes about shelling, it is better not to spread.

        This is what the Archer self-propelled gun is capable of: if someone does not understand the basurman speech, the self-propelled guns felled before the first shell hit the target.

        And what is so outstanding that artillery should show?
        Yes, it's elementary, to complete a combat mission with minimal costs. A simple Msta-B is a more convenient unit. And if the question is about self-propelled guns, then only on a caterpillar track, where the energy of the shot is rationally distributed along the chassis.

          How is Msta-B more convenient?
          Combination: tractor + towed howitzer takes much longer to deploy / collapse ...
          What is the real time there? 10-15-20 minutes, right?
          With the current pace of military development, towed howitzers are still not for the real battlefield.

            For those who don't know. Those firing tasks that Dana solves, 2C3 has existed in the SA for a very long time. She turns and folds into position much faster than Dana. And it will be better in cross-country. So there are no special advantages at all. As for Msta-B, I will inform you that its firing range is one and a half times greater than that of Dana. And the preparation of firing positions for Msta is much less laborious, and even further from the enemy by 10 km. I'm not even talking about logistics and technical support. Dana was made as a cheap sample of self-propelled artillery, well, the Czechs did not have the money for serious development. And the Soviet school of art systems creation has vast experience. Therefore, we went along the path of creating 2S19 and 2A65 in various modifications.

              For those who are in the know.
              The barrel length of Acacia is 28 calibers.
              Dana's barrel length is 47 calibers.

              I think anyone. though somehow connected with artillery there is a huge difference.

              And you don't look at Dana.
              Look at Archer.
              Take a look at our wheeled SPG.
              Or forgot that ours also began to make a wheeled SPG ...
