jimzhangzhang Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Chinese Koalitsiya-SV? I think it's a PLZ-05 155/52 caliber SPG， first revealed in 2007. unlike Koalitsiya-SV, The gunner and commander are still located in the turret.

LoooSeR Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 So why then turret is covered? They don't want to clean it too often? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khand-e Posted August 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 So why then turret is covered? They don't want to clean it too often? Would you? Cleaning and vehicle maintenance is probably on the top of the list of least favorite tasks of any soldier I'd imagine. =p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walter_Sobchak Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 The power pack of Type-99A Interesting looking powerpack. I see they have moved away from the Russian practice of transverse mounted engines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khand-e Posted August 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Do you know how the engines of the Type-99A and Type-99B (we call it the 99A2 in the west) differ per chance? I've been told that they don't use the same engine but never been told exactly how they're different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scolopax Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 What type of SAMs are mounted on this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khand-e Posted August 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 What type of SAMs are mounted on this? They're not AA Missiles, they're NLOS styled missiles fitted with ATGM warheads based on a scaled down CM-501G. Designation AFT-10, pretty sure they have a General Purpose warhead option aswell.

LoooSeR Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Israel have Pereh, China have AFT-10 (?). We also should have had something similar on Object 299 chassis, but Eltsin happened. Hermes missiles are in unknown stage of development, which were to be NLOS heavy missiles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khand-e Posted August 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 So basically, used as precision artillery? Precision and the ability to track and fire on targets in a 360 circle without having to reposition. NLOS is a really cool thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khand-e Posted August 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 Note the side thrust nozzles, this allows it to turn and completely change direction very, very fast in flight, even do a 180 degree turn behind it or curve over hills and into valleys and such. Like I said, NLOS is a really cool thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoooSeR Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 Does it use a cable? Is it on the photo. Maybe that's why there is no radio antenna, like on Pereh. Side thrust nozzles are nothing new, actually. Ataka missiles use them, and basically any Soviet/Russian laser-beam riding ATGM, too.

Khand-e Posted August 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 It has multiple guidance methods, in that case yes it's using fiber optic wire guidance, however it can also be guided via MMW Radar, ImIR, or UV. Pretty sure it has a loitering attack mode hence the multiple options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoooSeR Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 But where is guiding equipment? That Pereh have a lot of it all over turret, AFT-10 looks much "cleaner" compared to Israeli colleague. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
