Additional Information
the M109 is an American 155 mm self-propelled howitzer with a turret, first introduced in the early 1960s instead of the M44. It has been updated several times, most recently to M109A7. The M109 family is the most common Western indirect support weapon for maneuver brigades from armored and mechanized infantry divisions.< / p>
the M109 has a team of four: section chief / commander, driver, gunner and ammunition loader / unloader. The chief or shooter directs the gun left or right (deflection) and up and down (quadrant).< / p>
the British army replaced its m109s with the AS-90. Several European armed forces are replacing or currently replacing the old M109 with the German PzH 2000. Upgrades to the M109 have been introduced in the US and Switzerland. With the abolition of the American Crusader and the gun with no line of sight, the M109A6 ("paladin") will remain the main self-propelled howitzer for the US for the foreseeable future.< / p>
