Fastest Howitzer in The World - Archer Artillery System

The Archer Artillery System or Archer - FH77BW L52 is an international project aimed at developing a next-generation self-propelled artillery system for Sweden and Norway. The heart of the system is a fully automated 155 mm/L52 gun howitzer and a M151 Protector remote controlled weapon station mounted on a modified 6×6 chassis of the Volvo A30D, all-terrain articulated hauler. The crew and engine compartment is armoured and the cab is fitted with bullet and fragmentation-proof windows. Aside from this, the system consists of an ammunition resupply vehicle, a support vehicle, BONUS and the M982 Excalibur guided projectile.

maybe fastest in terms of transportation and setting it up?

[@dailytact1370]

It's moves fast, it deploys fast, it shoots fast (by artillery standards) and it can move on fast. It's basically built for a quickly moving front line during an offensive. Or to put it in more direct terms, it's a system developed to prolong a loosing war against Russia until EU and/or NATO reinforcements arrive.

The Archer descended from a remarkable 155mm self propelled system called the Bandcanon. Only 26 were ever built, but what made it special was that it could fire 15 rounds in 45 seconds - a world record. Could you imagine being on the receiving end of an entire battery of them? They were too heavy to be effective ,so were phased out. It's legacy is it's magazine loading system which is in the Archer 155mm

People are missing the point of this Howitzer. The title should read: Fastest "Shoot and Scoot" Howitzer in the World. It's about how fast it can set up, shoot and get the hell out of position from return fire! Then drive away, do it all over again. Shoot and scoot in 60 seconds is remarkable! Once the enemy pinpoints the trajectory of a massive stationary Howitzer, you're a sitting duck!

it's called shoot and scoot. you fire a round. pick up and move. it has a shorter range due to being vehicle mounted and having a smaller breach size and thus round size. plus it takes down to get a mission report and to follow up. thus they shoot, scoot and move. this limits incoming counter battery fire and let's them follow up without being destroyed.

And also it is not tracked and not really armoured like the pzh2000. And the replenishment compared to the pzh 2000 (60 rounds in 12 mins) is so slow.

luka lukif I understand your point of view, but I see systems like this as deterrence; if "Mister Bad Guy" is convinced he's going to lose, he'll be less inclined to start trouble. Historically, it's been true. If you'll think about it, the ultimate example of this philosophy was during the Cold War, while definitely hostile towards each other, NATO and the Warsaw Pact never went into hot war because of the fear of mutual nuclear annihilation. Aggressors are so because they believe they'll win; sometimes because they think they have God on their side, other times because they think their enemies are weak.

A little tip in case some people wonder why most self propelled artillery have shoot and scoot (and try to make this as fast as possible). In actual war against capable military where their artillery units basically will be shooting at each other, you DON'T stand still and shoot repeatedly from the same spot... doing so will get the artillery annihilated from the counter battery fire because modern military are PRETTY GOOD at determining where hostile artillery fire are coming from, and can be pretty fast at retaliating and if your artillery kept firing from the same spot and DON'T MOVE, then you will eat artillery shell from the opposing side who did not take kindly to you lobbing artillery shells at them. you shoot, you scoot... BEFORE the enemy artillery shell turn the spot you were just standing on into crater.
