World's fastest mobile artillery system goes from transport to firing in less than 30 sec
25Sep
The Archer artillery system claims to be the world’s fastest howitzer, and with response times like these they may be right.
The Archer can go from transportation to firing in less than 30 seconds, empty an entire magazine in less than 3 minutes, and become mobile again in another 30 seconds.
The truck mounted uber-cannon features an armored crew cabin that can control the weapon system without exiting the vehicle.
Once the weapon has been loaded before engaging in combat, it can provide mobile artillery support in record time. Click here for a close up view of 105mm and 155mm artillery shells at the moment of impact.
