Designation:

105 LG1 Mk II

Info
Manufactured by: Nexter  
Type: Weapons & Weapon Systems  
Name: Gun  
 
 

Designed specially for rapid deployment units, almost 130 examples of this NATO 105 mm light towed gun has been sold to armies on 3 continents.

The main advantage of the 105 LG1 MkII is its weight, 1 520 kg, making it by far the lightest gun of its category. This lightness in no way alters its robustness and its performances. The gun can be helitransported, airlifted, parachuted, airdropped or towed by a wide range of light 4-wheel drive vehicles. Operated by a five-man gun crew, which can be reduced to three, the 105 LG1 MkII can fire all NATO 105 mm ammunition up to a range of 18.5 km. The rapidity with which it can be put into and brought out of battery (less than thirty seconds) and its firing rate (12 rounds per minute) complete the qualities of this artillery piece.
