4 List of the Most Dangerous Rocket Artillery Systems in the World |
Since the Second World War, there have been effective means of carrying out long-range bombing beyond the range of weapons of any caliber. It also allows soldiers to fire shorter ranges than ballistic or cruise missiles more cheaply.
It should be noted that there is a superiority in this artillery system itself. The following is a list of 4 dangerous artillery systems in the world.
1. PHL-16 from China
China's PHL-16 Artelery System |
The system is deployed from an 8x8 wheeled mobile launcher, which makes up a battery of six launchers each and several reloading vehicles.
2. KN-25 from North Korea
North Korean KN-25 Artelery System |
The KN-25 is arguably one of the components that strengthens North Korea's superiority. Its range is 400 km, which then allows it to bombard its cold enemy, South Korea. This extreme range remains longer than many ballistic missiles such as the Hwasong-5 and KN-02.
3. 9A53-S Tornado-S (under test) Russia
Russian 9A53-S Tornado-S Artelery System |
The 9A53-S Tornado-S system is incredible with a range of just 120km. He also has a new type of ammunition for the system with a 200km range that is reportedly starting to be tested making it the first outside China or North Korea.
4. M270 with ER GMLRS (under test) United States
US M270 Artillery System |
The Cold War era M270 rocket artillery system is expected to be significantly improved as the system is upgraded with new types of ammunition. The ER GMLRS commenced flight testing in March 2021 and is intended to provide an engagement range of 150 km.
The rocket uses a larger motor, relies on tail-driven guides and has a newly designed fuselage, with production expected to begin in 2023.
Those are the 4 most dangerous artillery systems in the world. Sophistication then match the modern era of warfare.
