Glad to hear you're not all fascists these days.

and when you look at it, ruSSia's GDP is similar to Italy's so your country alone can afford as much on armaments as ruSSia despite their size, so explains why they are doing so badly.

@@phunkeehone Can imagine! some force to fire a projectile those kind of ranges. Did you compete for fastest set up and fire times?

@@DRSHANKER In a way we did compete. There was a time limit we had to get below. Setup, load, fire, takedown, on the truck and move. After a while, we managed to get below the limit (I don't remember the specific time, it's 20 years ago), running around like mad men. And it sure is some force. The largest gun powder charge we used (called 7 red in my country) was a little under a meter long and about 15 cm in diameter. It's for fully elevated firing. When you fire a charge like that.. Oh, man. Makes new years eve seem like a silent night.

20km is very short range these days. Russia just shows that it can hit absolute everything from everywhere in whole Ukraine. 20km is already too close to be save.

Learning from the best my friend!

They are probably the most well-trained and well experienced Western ground troops in Europe, thanks to the war, atm.

They may be the ones giving training to the western militaries when this is over.

@@Arend85 Exactly right, they have the most hands on about how modern battles are fought. Also, this war has highlight drones as the new superweapon that is also cheap and can be deployed en mass. The new "air force" for cash strapped nations.

And to think that back in 2014 they look like soviet military but under 8 years they are now more like a modern, conventional army

But this is not junk, maybe old, but very very effective, precise and powerful, I'm sure Ukraine will win this war, but if they don't Russian will pay a very very heavy price, they're already doing it, and it will be worse as the time passes, imagine what the US is capable, if Ukraine with a little fraction of what we have is doing all this damage, do you think Russia has any chance fighting against the US? (no nukes involved)

It may not be top of the line, but it's not obsolete either.

It is the right calibre and the shells are programmed before loading so I think they may well fire them too.

it can load and fire them, but it has no guidance unit, so they would remain dumb shells. on XM-777 the large box ontop of the barrel and recoil assembly is the guidance unit for terminal phase guided ammunition. This box is missing on the delivered M-777 in Ukraine. The FH-70 never got such an upgrade. Currently PzH2000 is the only system in ukrainian use that is capable of firing and guiding ammunition like Excalibur as far as i know.

They are already running low on shells.

@@alex35agm Being part of NATO isn't only about the weapons, but also about a unified military command and a unified strategy in any conflict, not specific ones depending on the bilateral relations of each country. Also NATO batallions implement teams from a number of countries that are part of the alliance : French, Polish and Canadian troops fight together following the orders of a single hierarchy. Ukraine is still clearly not in this type of military cooperation with NATO at this point.

What women fighting? I haven't seen a single video yet of women fighting on the frontline. Only men.

Another crusade of the West to the east. No desire to burn people in furnaces and call them orcs?

The better NATO kit gives them an advantage as it achieves much better accuracy but from what I have seen they make good use of whatever they have. Some units using the same howitzers as the Russians, the old Soviet era kit, are still getting better results out of it than the Russians are.

​@Mohibullah KhanIt won't make any difference. In the first Gulf war Iraq was equipped with Russian equipment and Bagdad had the densest Russian made air defence network in the world apart from the one around Moscow. They also had plenty of ammunition and more men than the coalition. For months the coalition forces bombed Iraq at will and then 100 hours of ground fighting and the Iraqi army was finished. Russian made equipment didn't help there, it won't help anywhere else.

Тоже самое Я ирландцам буду говорить когда они вас стрелять будут

You mean the east Ukrainian who fight Nazis since 2014 and are now saved by Russia? True.

All of Europe owes a debt to Ukraine. Even we Americans owe a debt that Ukraine is paying for us in blood.

Ukraine is the front line against Soviet aggression. That's right, SOVIET. Putin & Co. seek to reconstitute the Soviet Union, bringing all the renegade states back into the fold. Ukraine, Poland, Slovakia, et al. will not have it. They are all either in NATO or they wanna be.

Of course, Ukrainian slaves can die for profit foreign masters.

The Warsaw Pact countries that got out from under authoritarianism and modernized themselves are Ukraine's biggest boosters. The Poles have been raring to go since the beginning. They're probably hoping some drunk Belarussian fires a shot across their border.

@@lucadesanctis563 Being shipped? They just drive there !!

What outdated concept? The auxiliary power unit or some other feature?

@@atlas42185 Towed howitzers are outdated. The latest concept is the AGM (Artillery Gun Module) mounted on a Boxer chassis. The operation of the gun is fully automated (total crew of two: A driver and a gunner) who never have to touch a shell and the Boxer/AGM combo can deploy, fire eight 155mm shells and move away all in 90 seconds. On road it has a top speed of 103km/h (65mph).

@@atlas42185 outdated concept about strategic issues (field artillery) when in this era we see missiles and self-propelled artillery and drones with the ability to auto set up and fire. An FH-70 needs about 15-30 mins to be set up and ready to fire. It was already a bit outdated in 1997/98 when I served in the Italian Army and, except drones, other kinds of artillery were already in camp and GPS was in use. But even if it was built in 1970 and its projects started in the last years of 60s, it was dotated of a lot of features that can be useful also today like the APU, the ability to fire in the two arcs (less than 45° and more than 45°, so it could fire like a tank cannon or a mortar) and the capacity to fire normal grenades and semi-auto propelled grenades that extends the maximum range from 24 to 32 kms.

It's old in that newer 155mm designs are in use so it been replaced by some NATO members example M177 155mm.

Old in military terms is a relative term. Old design, but many upgrades over the years? Old in original design, but produced more recently with better designed materials, modifications and additions? Old artillery but newer shells? Lots of variables that negate the "old" designation. But at the end of the day, if it gets the job done then "old" is an insignificant term.

@@jaykellett2327 it's called old because FH70 is in the process of being replace either by self-propelled artilery or by M777.. there is no major upgrade since 1990s thus it is called old

I was made in the 1960's and am still deadly, just saying.

@@josephmccarthy2947 Hi Joseph again.. no problem. I‘ll tell all the secrets, but hey, our guys will need to silence you then 😎… no worries - it‘s not that big secret.: the shells can‘t be aimed „into the same hole“ - but the accuracy which can be reached with state-of-the-art artillery systems is amazing! The observing units , dependent on the target, probably will ask for one single shell (all weather/wind - distance, altitudes are taken into it by the fire control command) - after thagt single shell hit, they may ask for slight corrections - and the next full round (mostly at least 2 to 4 guns) will deploy the present around a certain variance, which may between 5 to 30m, depending on distance (and accuracy of the gunners ) . Good teams will almost hit at the first shelling… and sometimes the more area the better, depending on the type of shell used… (different fuzes …) 🧨
