A Ukrainian artillery unit in the Donbas region uses the latest long-range artillery import, the French Caesar howitzer. The self-propelled 155mm gun can hit targets up to 38 kilometers away and is highly mobile. One soldier told RFE/RL on June 8 that the system was easy to use.

Ukraine needs many many many more of these along with more than enough ammunition to actually keep them running. If France and neighbouring countries aren’t going to actually get involved in the conflict, which they should, then they might as well give Ukraine all of it as we are the nations that can always make more of it, while Ukraine right now cannot.

As a former French artillery NCO, i can tell you these guns are extremely effective, very long range and accurate 155mm. The computer is incredible if you know how to operate it with multiple guns. Put it to good use ,i hope these guns will serve you well. And it is excellent for an artillery crew to be named Roman and operate the Caesar. (My name is Roman too...)

Not a single Ukranian soldier was born in the Donbass. All of the soldiers born in the Donbass fight for the Russian side. Who's invading who? The Donbass is a territory that has been historically Russian and its inhabited by Russian speaking people. It was transferred from Russia to the Ukraine in 1954 by Nikita Kruschev. You'll not find a single writer or poet born in that region that wrote in Ukranian and spoke of the Ukraine as his/her motherland.

For those who are interested in : The Caesar gun is not named in the strong memory of the Roman Empire emperor but named as abbreviation in french language as CAmion Equipé d’un Système d’Artillerie (CAESAr) which means truck equipped by an artillery system which is far less historically romantic and way more pragmatic.

The PzH 2000 leads combat effectiveness in offering MRSI, armor protection for its personnell and difficult terrain mobility allowing it to traverse and hide in forests. The obvious benefit of the Caesar is better deployment capability as it can just travel at 100 kmph on normal roads whereas the PzH 2000 relies on railway transport for longer distances similar to any armored tanks. It could potentially travel anywhere on its own tracks at 60 kmph, but it would be a humongous fuel guzzler and not quite such a comfortable trip for its crew.

This was my observation also, soybean to tofu in an instant from the shockwaves. Also noticed that the Ukers took several more steps back than usual, tremendously more recoil than other machinery being deployed. Very impressive. Did the French also limit the directions of fire as with other suppliers have? Otherwise, I ask those farmers to plant fence row to fence row on the off chance they are able to harvest and export. The rest of the planet needs all of the brave farmers and what they can eek out of the soil.

That was also my MOS/job back in the 90s when I was in the US Army, stateside (4th Infantry Division, 3rd Battalion/29th Field Artillery, Bravo Battery), and then in Germany (2nd Armored Division, 2nd Battalion, 29th Field Artillery, Charlie Battery. We operated/fired from the Mechanized M109A 155mm self-propelled howitzer system, which is currently the standard equipment in today's Army, except now they call them PALADINS, because each single howitzer has their own GPS - Gyro navigation system, so each howitzer can shoot individually or as a group, all firing at the same time for maximum effect, on time, on target. But I only got to load and fire during cross training sessions because the two jobs were split back then, because each howitzer didn't yet have their own GPS. Back then, our firing position was determined by a single Gyro navigation system, and each howitzer had to be surveyed and sited in, usually by our platoon sergeant(Smoke), who conducted the surveying/laying process. Once our firing position was accurately determined, we were ready to finalize meteorological data(current weather patterns), check and verify safety, and receive fire missions. Shooting fire missions was fun, but all the other aches and pains of training for realistic battle was not very fun, but they trained us as close as you can get to reality without actually killing anyone. I was in during Desert Shield/Desert Storm, but the first Iraq War only lasted a very short number of days, and a ceasefire was called, and our unit never got deployed. I believe America was justified in kicking Iraq back out of Kuwait, but they lied to us about the 2nd Iraq war, of which I was already out of military service and not a part of. Anyways. a big thank you to the country of France for sending these amazing howitzers to Ukraine, which will help them defend and take back their country and remain a sovereign nation.

This maneuver of: arriving in the area, firing and leaving, all in less than 3 minutes, is the operating mode of the CAESARs, learned from the French military artillerymen. Already practiced in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and Mali by the French with success against unconventional forces. This demonstrates that the CAESAR is one of the fastest, most accurate and efficient Howitzers in the world, in addition to being fully connected since the firing data arrives on the CAESAR computer EVEN BEFORE it gets into firing position. Thus the CAESAR is therefore very difficult to locate and therefore destroy during an enemy counter-battery maneuver. Even though the CAESAR has already destroyed 6 targets in just 1 minute. If the Ukrainians had 50 CAESARs and the BONUS shells the Russians would be forced to evacuate their positions, for lack of support.

Only China and Taiwan are waiting for you ... empty tanks and wallets are waiting for you, hot western heads ... They would be funny, if you weren't tragic. Unfortunately, in your "very democratic countries", you rule your media. Goebbels .. You know little about history .. All the best, you shoot yourself in the leg and vital organs .. Just send weapons, and enjoy your lies. Sobering up is always painful. All the best.

What is cool about this system is that it is very mobile. They could fire for a while and then move to a different location to avoid detection of their position. Nasty machine.

I was thrilled when our government sent almost 100 M777's to the Ukrainians, but from the beginning I felt like Ukraine would've been better served with SELF-PROPELLED artillery like these Caesars or American M109 Paladins. The type of war these guys are now fighting isn't one where you can just park a battery of M777s in one spot like we did in Afghanistan and sit there for days or weeks or even months and keep firing while never worrying about getting hit back. We've already seen one Russian attack on M777s where they dropped a munition from a drone. Thankfully for Ukraine, the Russians are total incompetents and instead of calling in an airstrike or an artillery strike or even an MLRS strike on the M777s, they instead dropped what was basically ONE HAND GRENADE on the Ukrainians and it landed like 20 feet away from everybody. I have no doubt that shrapnel hit at least one M777, and it obviously COULD HAVE caused some damage. But it appears that the Ukrainians were able to pack up and leave before the Russians could launch a more devastating attack. But that just highlights my point. I'm sure the Ukrainians are extremely grateful to have over 100 M777s, but I think they would be BETTER SERVED with more Caesars or Paladins or whatever type of self-propelled 155mm artillery "the West" is willing to send, even if those platforms have a shorter firing range than the M777s. The Ukrainians need to be able to "shoot and scoot" because their supply of NATO artillery is far, FAR lower than the endless supply of Soviet junk that the Russians have. And just like we saw in WW2 with things like the Sherman vs Tigers or Panthers, sometimes having far more of an inferior weapons system is better than having just a few examples of a far superior system. The Ukrainians need about FIVE HUNDRED M109 Paladins/Caesars/etc. to really take the fight to the invading orcs.

Towed howitzers doesn’t mean they can’t be moved.. 😉 When i served we where drilled to be as fast in and out of position as possible. At that time we didn’t really have anything but towed howitzers either. Anyway it’s a big part of to be successful. The adversary that was foreseen is the same Ukraine has to deal with now..☹️ The m777 is a really lightweight howitzer that in it self should promote the ease of handling in comparison to many other howitzers of the same caliber. Ukraine would probably need at least 500 towed and at least 100 self propelled 155mm to make a difference. There’s still a lot do to get there..

Agreed Johnny and Elg. They need MORE of everything. Better to utilize their motivated troops NOW...then slowly starve them of the equipment and supplies which could lead to their defeat. Strike now...before the war moves to another country.

Pretty they were supplied M109s as well as M777s. But M109s are cranky beasts, hope the maintainers are up to the job.

@@drawingdead9025 the M777 is good in that perspective and it’s light! Only half of the weight of a corresponding one (155K83). Easier to move around with a lighter truck. And if the towing truck breaks down it can be exchanged fast!

Not a single Ukranian soldier was born in the Donbass. All of the soldiers born in the Donbass fight for the Russian side. Who's invading who? The Donbass is a territory that has been historically Russian and its inhabited by Russian speaking people. It was transferred from Russia to the Ukraine in 1954 by Nikita Kruschev. You'll not find a single writer or poet born in that region that wrote in Ukranian and spoke of the Ukraine as his/her motherland.
