Aselsan and the Army GeneraláDirectorateáof Military Factory - or Askeri Fabrikalar Genel Mudurlugu (AFGM) - have developed a self-propelled (SP) artillery system called the Kamyona Monteli Obius (KMO) to meet a potential requirement by the Turkish Army.

The KMO is essentially a 6x6 cross-country truck chassis with a two-door forward control cab that carries and deploys a 155 mm/52 calibre ordnance derived from the MKEK Panter towed howitzer, which was developed in the 1990s and has entered service with the army.

Elevation and traverse of the 155 mm/52 calibre weapon of the KMO is electric with manual back up controls. The controls and the sighting system are mounted on the left side of the ordnance.



When being readied for firing a large hydraulically operated space is lowered at the rear of the platform to increase stability, while providing a platform for the gun crew.

Like the Panter towed howitzer, the KMO is fitted with a flick rammer to increase its rate of fire and reduce crew fatigue.

Aselsan has included a computerised fire control system (FCS) which is coupled to an inertial navigation system (INS).

This is essentially similar to the system equipping the Panter and the tracked Furtina 155 mm/52 calibre self-propelled artillery system.

Maximum range depends on the projectile charge system employed but a range of 40 km has been claimed using the MKEK 155 mm high-explosive extended-range full-bore (HE ERFB) projectile.



In contrast, the old 155 mm M107 HE projectile can only achieve a maximum range of 18 km although this can be increased to 30 km using the M549A1 rocket assisted projectile (RAP).

A total of 21 155 mm projectiles and associated modular charge system (MCS) are carried and these are stowed in boxes on either side of the KMO.

According to Aselsan, the KMO takes about one minute to come into action and two minutes to come out of action which improves its survivability against counterbattery fire.

    1. Mungkin tergantung teknologi amonisinya om..
      Kalo howitzer 2S35 Koalytsiya-SV 152mm (Rusia)

      Adalah self-propelled howitzer Rusia yang pertama muncul di depan publik, pada 2015. Howitzer ini dilengkapi turet tanpa awak dan meriam 152 mm dengan sistem pemuatan amunisi otomatis. Koalytsiya-SV dapat menembakan beberapa jenis amunisi, seperti amunisi standar, roket, amunisi anti tank dengan proyektil cluster, dan amunisi dengan proyektil jammer. Jangkauan tembak amunisi standar 30 km, dengan bantuan roket 40 km. Saat ini sedang dikembangkan amunisi dipandu yang presisi dengan jangkauan 70 km. Howitzer Koalitsiya-SV mampu menembak 8 putaran per menit, membawa amunisi sebanyak 60-70 putaran.

      Nah kalo ini moncer om bila tni mau mengakuisisi tapiiii... Rusia pelit tot jadi males dech... 😁

      Hapus
    2. Rata2 howi itu mksud'a howitzer?... penyebutan dan jenis bgi pihak barat itu berbeda-beda gan, tergantung jenis munisi nya.
