155mm L39 Howitzer [KE RP]

1,738 TeodoroG  3 hours ago

BullGreyRahn military engineers have designed a 155mm howitzer, capable of reaching targets far away and unleashing hell upon them. The barrel is 39 calibres long (6 meters in this case) and has a bore diameter of 155mm. The muzzle brake has two baffles, which helps to catch the gasses and decrease recoil force by redirecting pressure forwards rather than rearwards. The breech automatically opens upon firing, and ejects the spent casing. This allows the loader to immediately ram the new shell into the breech, close the block and fire. The gun itself sits upon an upper and lower carriage, the upper carriage adjusting the elevation while the lower carriage adjusts azimuth.

This howitzer will likely not be used domestically by the BullGreyRah Army, and instead is intended to be sold to foreign nations. Each unit will be priced at 1 million dollars, with fire control and other systems not included.
