- “Artillery is the god of war.”
This statement was made over half a century ago and still remains relevant to this day.
In today’s video, we’ll be talking about the self-propelled artillery pieces that the foreign allies of the Armed Forces of Ukraine have shared with them and evaluate their impact on the effectiveness of the fight against the Russian occupiers. - Věda a technologie
Being from Czech rep. - relatively small country (population about 11 millions) which is giving up as much military equipment as possible (not only howitzers, but also guns, tanks, ammunitions) along with food, medical aid, money etc... to Ukrainians - I understand that one may be from small country but still be proud by supporting our neighbours to defend their country.
Czechs have a long tradition of manufacturing very good weapons (and beer...) right?
dont forget you also gave choppers Mi24
Yea, Its very important for us.Thanks for your help friends ❤ you are the best !
@@user-ky8nq9ls2o helping those in need is moral obligation to all good people...
Poland's really becoming an increasingly important part of Europe. They've shouldered more responsibility for this war, of any country that supports Ukraine. Including the amount of refugees they've received.
There nothing without the U.S. funneling weapons and money and soldiers into there country just like Ukraine nothing
All poland needs is a coal supply from Russia. But that doesn't work anymore. Firewood and goats dung - the only feasible solution.
Probably because they're next in line
Well they've for sure done a ton, but more than any country? Ya sure about that?
Viva Ukraine
Seems Poland one of the few that actually remembered history and actually knows how to prevent it. Others where a bit delusional and thought you can appease the aggressor. Poland really did an amazing job 👏
Irony Poland did not "remembered history" of Iraq War when 1.8 Million Iraq/ Syrian Refugees stand in front of their Borders and we Germans had to take them. The old history narrative becomes a bit pure hypocrisy if the only purpose is to hide your own authoritarian mini-ruzzia politics with facist friends like hungary constantly undermining Europe. So European history and present is a bit more complex. Slava Ukraini!
@Yanks r EVIL lol u have not gotten a single like in 2 weeks.
Those damn Germans sure know how to build stuff. The reload system is sweet.
Thanks 😄……no …Freedom!!
The producers of this video did a lot of Weapon Research to be able to describe in detail features of the many different Howitzers 155 s and other calibers. Ukraine badly needed the artillery weapons of all types. Training the soldiers on how to operate so many different artillery Guns from different countries makes it much more difficult to put them in the battle. Ukraine has met this challenge and is doing an outstanding job making the best use of them, they are quick learners. One Ukraine commander said he and his men spent 24 days in France learning how to operate their artillery with no days off, they are fighting for their survival and giving all they have.
To defeat Russian efforts to scuttle their trainings inside Ukraine, Ukrainians are doing capability training deep in the territory of western European countries even before these artillery pieces made their way inside Ukraine. No wonder, the Ukrainian Military is able to immediately use various howitzer version in the battlefield because they they have trained personnel ready for them.
stiil do not understand why these news networks feel they have to broadcast every weapon sent to Ukraine So Russia Knows exactly What IS coming !
@@barneyrice8502 You are correct and ask a very good question. One has to ask if there are any secret policies now carried out by our Pentagon or do we have to let Russia know first what out next move is.
Give Ukraine more of all those babies
Ang Germany's Economy drop if they do that
@@rendelbariuan7583 Freedom is not cheap. Its worth fighting for
@@anthonydefex777 well i just gonna respect your opinion but i can see West is slightly Suffering.
Accuracy is more important than rate of fire - high rates of fire just destroy the barrel. One accurate round does more than 10 scattered around the target, particularly so when the target has some protection.
Depends. The faster the rate of fire in combination with decent accuracy could do a lot more then having slower rate of fire with slightly worse accuracy. It is well known most kills in artillery strikes fall during earlier moments when people haven't gone into cover yet.
True, but accuracy COMBINED with a high rate of fire is even better. 😁👍
@@grahamstrouse1165 can not agree even more. There is a reason why HIMARS and MRSI capable artillery is so desired. Well...that and the fact those systems are often more mobile, but your point still stands 👍🏽
God bless Ukraine 💙💛
Glory to Ukraine 💪💪💙💛
Watch : ' Putin Lays Out Demand to End War '
Ura Russia !!!
why there all in the netherlands then,,go back and fight the rusian army .???.stop this stupid war !!!!!!!!!
What I think? I think the Ukrainians best can answer any questions, they are becoming the most experienced military in the world, handling all kinds of systems with jaw dropping precision.
Ukraine has become the testing ground for modern arms against a conventional enemy.
Hahahahahahahhahahahaha
Alas, their life expectancy is 1-2 weeks at the utmost. Death or prisoners camp.
And still losing.
@@charonstyxferryman Right, they never miss a target, be it children playground, marketplace, school or hospital.
The informations given in this video are quite complete, even if some howitzer ranges are inaccurate or clearly incorrect. To complete it, Caesar howitzers also performs MRSI thanks to its advanced fire control system. France also delivered BONUS rounds to Ukraine
Nice video vlogging. I like the narratives as well. Keep it up Wild Iron
These vessels are just the delivery system for the warheads. So the exact type makes little difference. The real game changer is the ammo. With self guiding base bleed granades the Ukraine is able to shell the russians with previously unknown precision at any place closer to 40 km from the frontlines, and change position before the first Impact. Though the russians may have 1000 Artillery pieces, the Ukraine only needs some 1100 shells to turn them into scrap metal.
You're talking about the Excalibur rounds? Or the PGKs? They increase the precision of a PzH 2000 to 5m over a 28km distance. While with an M777, they increase precision to a mere 50m radius. Which btw goes to show that the exact type can make a huge difference, in this case a factor 10 difference in how useful something like the PGKit is. Apart from that it obviously makes a difference that the PzH2000 has twice the rate of fire compared to some other systems. If you shoot-and-scoot and only stay in one position for a minute, it makes a difference if you're able to fire 2 MRSI volleys or just one, or none because your system isn't MRSI capable.
Wheeled SPG can shoot and scoot faster, compared with tracked versions. But armoured SPG is safer in heavily contested area's with a lot of counter batteries. But Cesars are cheaper then the PZH 2000 and often require less mantenance.
Beside the sort of ammo, western supplies can continue, while old soviet stocks are running out. So Ukraine relies most on the western allies to continue the war.
Also, gun barrels get less fast worn out, with accurate shots instead of the Russian style of firing thousands just to get one hit. Someone wrote the Russian will probably lose 15 guns a day just because of this.
Newsflash: the U.S will ship another 4 Himars to ukraine, to a total of 16. Lavrov kiss my ***
@@hisredrighthand5212 I'm particularly talking about Suchzuendermunition. These are shells that have a microwave radar to actively look for predetermined targets and then release two daughter warheads to make a top on attack. It is said that a coordinated attack of the two warheads can hit a moving target, and a 10 second blast by a battery of 4 (4x3x2=24 warheads) can destroy a colomn of up to 20 vehicles.
@@andreasarnoalthofsobottka2928 But those don't have 40km range, rather 28-30km max. - since the rounds break apart mid-flight to release the two submunitions. And to hit a convoy on the move you'd have to be able to determine with 150m precision the area where those vehicles will be at the time the submunitions start descending on the battlefield.
Also to my knowledge, you can't pre-program the target, the submunitions fall at slightly reduced speed due to a tiny parachute and scan what amounts to an area of about 70,000m² for enemy armour, which they identify based on an internal database of enemy equipment. Once they've locked on, they steer their fall towards the target and blast an "explosively formed penetrator" into the top of the target.
@@cz1589 I think barrel wear and tear might particularly be a concern for the CAESAR. Why else would they only carry 18 rounds with them on that large truck? They can shoot-and-scoot three times before they need to reload.
Edit: On the other hand they have the OGRE rounds, which seem ideal for taking out stationary artillery batteries. They release 63 grenades over an area of 70x70m, which can penetrate 9mm of armour - too little even for an M113, but enough for the usual armour of self-propelled howitzers and also enough to seriously damage stationary howitzers.
Nice video!
Thank you :)
NATO is getting a good test on how effective their weapons are at Russia's expense.
At ukreine's and eu expense to be precise!
So are the russians
@@lastguy8613 So are the humans! Nasty and disgusting breed! @Alien
He was clearly not talking about financial expense you dunce
@@lastguy8613 Russians can’t even take Ukraine after all these month’s lmao
Congratulations on this work, you made a very complete resume on self propelled artilleries. I think what should accompany those vehicules should be anti aircraft units.
Ukraine is currently training on 15 of 30 gephard tracked anti aircraft 'tanks' from Germany.
M1097 Avenger in place and today’s news says US senators are asking Pentagon to send more.
They really need the mid range anti air. Tor and Buk and maybe S300.
Or even better, Iron Dome or Patriot
@@plehmann72 Germany will be supplying IRIS-T SLM (Surface Launch Medium range) to Ukraine. That system is brand spanking new, operational testing was only completed in January '22. It can use passive radar and thus the launch site cannot easily be detected by enemy forces.
Those Ukrainian soldiers are BAD ASS !! GOD BLESS THEM AND GIVE THEM THE STRENGTH TO WIN THIS WAR !!!
Instead of newly manufactured PzH 2000 Ukraine should order AGM (Artillery Gun Module) mounted on Boxer chassis.
The gun itself is the same L52 Rheinmetal but the loading system is fully automated so it requires a crew of only 2.
Mounted on the Boxer (top speed 103km/h, operational range 1100km) it can deploy, fire 8 shells and move away in 90 seconds.
AGM can also be mounted on the tracked chassis of the M270 MLRS (which can deploy, fire 10 rounds and scoot in 2 minutes 9 seconds) or any other chassis the operator prefers.
You can also just put the AGM on a truck if you like, that way you don't need to use Boxers.
I feel like Ukraine knows what it is doing.
Every piece of equipment is needed, hopefully Ukrainian frontman get enough not to defend but also to take back 🤞🏻
HIMARS is a nice compliment to the 155's and in the hands of the AFU both are quite lethal! Слава Герою!!!
There is no sufficient manpower in afu to keep the shelling of Donbass citizens at present rate. In the end ukreine will lose and surrender and will starve and freeze in a warm eu company! No gas - it's a mess! Let's see the outcome in February 2023!
@@shesathome why would they lose, if NATO will keep sending weapons, and ammo, in the end all civilians will be killed. You don't need to be expert to shoot unarmed. And USA will be happy to send gas to EU, to keep the fight going
@@ChasseurTueur They'll lose, it's inevitable! NATO isn't cornucopia. UsA will be happy to bury the world in it's last dying convultion. The end is near and you'll be the first to disappear.
this is going to get wild when ukraine goes on the offensive...
If, you mean
Minor correction: The 155mm Excalibur round wasn’t designed for the Zumwalt’s 155mm AGS. It’s an army creation that was briefly considered for the Zumwalt’s guns after the USN decided to abandon production of the the AGS’ original guided projectiles because they cost almost $1 million a round-almost as a much a cruise missile. Eventually the Navy concluded that using the Excalibur round would require too many modifications to the naval guns & wouldn’t provide enough range.
(The Zumwalt’s main guns are being removed, in case your curious, and replaced with cells for hypersonic cruise missiles. The Zumwalt was SUCH a disaster. But I digress…)
These companies must be raking it in! 💵💵💵
Only GPS guided ammunition makes any sense in today's battlefields.
You pay more for not missing.
More money, more candy...
If Russia would only learn such things!
Russia wants to destroy Ukraine, so they only need to level with no guidance.
For Ukraine it makes more sence to pick off every important military target with deadly presision.
I am sure the Russians at the battlefield will notice.
Imo that’s only if your economically able and have the resources and you are fighting a much weaker force. If you are fighting peer to peer it’s a different story eventually both sides will choose to mass produce something quick and economical.
GPS and laser guided combined even better
Off topic question: What is the title (and author) of the background music at 10:11?
I've heard it before, but I just can't place it.
Accompanying the artillery should be some anti-air weapons including microwave weapons to destroy drones signals. Possibly a few defence forces troops go secure the ground before the artillery arrives. Its bo to see things moving but countries like the USA who have over six hundred missile artillery between army and marine corps. The Russians will I feel eventually increasingly feel the need to either man power or weapons used !
The Achilles seems made for that conflict. Deploys and redeploys in less than 30 sec, and can pump out 20 shots with high precision in 2.5min without anyone leaving the cabin . Mounted on an all terrain truck that is pretty fast,. Problem is there won't be many. But each one will do the work of 2 or 3 other ones if used well. under 4 minutes from stopping the truck on sight until 20 shots is in the air and it leaves again. Just as the first shells starts to land. The ultimate shoot and scoot'er.
Just watch out for overheating
Do you mean the Swedish Archer System?
not a unicum in the nato:
germany: pz2000 on tracks -> 10 shot minute | range (rap) 67 km (shots can be fired in a way they arrive at the same time on target)
sweden: archer on wheels -> 20 rounds in 2.5 min | range 60 km (37 mi)
@@zunzler5262 Ooopds. Damn, what a hell did I do here? Achilles. :p Archer I meant. And thanks m8.
There is a problem with whelled self propelled artillery. Whells with air. Some sources said that there is more than 30 AHS Krab in 🇺🇦, one was destroyed and a couple was hit by sub ammunition from Grad and Uragan counter fire.
Something like Archer or Ceasers could be easy destroyed by sub ammo. Not enough armor.
Even if you can carry a fire mission in 1 minute, enemy can have some uav in area and still can hit your equipment.
Ukraine are going to be one of most improved army's in the world. Training from Britain, USA, Germany, France . Can't think of others. Also Ukraine special forces are being trained by ........secret 😇. ..via Ukraine. Via the free world. 💙💛✊😷
Afraid they are fighting for US to the last soldiers stand, as US puppy Zelinsky says.
No lucky ending, Ukrainian military azov losses are gigantic compared to Russia.
Russia have not declared real war yet, but they make do it.
Only uses volunteers until now, hope it's not going to escalate. But it's not looking good, Russia not even used any heavy bomber planes yet. But they have capacity to use US tactics and carpet bombed everything in short time.
@@andrehunter1295 If this ain’t real war then what is ? Nuclear Armageddon ?
@@andrehunter1295 The Russians would use Bombers but they know the old planes will be shot down easily.
@@andrehunter1295 Check you information sources - they misled you.
Andrea, you can't carpet bomb. You don't have air supremacy. Plus the USA hasn't done that since Vietnam. You know what I'm all in favor of giving the Ukraine weapons down to the last Ukrainian. If costs us 300 billion to defeat the Russian military. I think that would be a great deal. Almost a better deal than buying Alaska. Russia is going to lose, and you know it. The west is winning no matter what happens. The Ukrainians are defending themselves with obsolete western equipment. The west has is rearming. Nato has expanded. The USA spends 50 billion a year on maintaining its nuclear arsenal. The Russians have even more nuclear weapons the USA. How much has Russia spend on maintaining its weapons since 1992. Are you willing to launch knowing that they may not work. Or might get shot down. It may turn into a one sided affair. Sleep well tonight. Remember any car is only as good as its maintenance.
Oh, in some circles Artillery is know as “The King of Battle."

Some great research and info here. My only suggestion is to use kilometres rather than miles as we're talking about a European theatre where metric is used.

cool just saw a video of one of these getting vaporized , they blow up real good or will make a great addition to an lpr dnr museum .
If they deploy the Panzerhaubitze 2000 correctly, they kick some Russian asses in 3 minutes -> 1 minute setup, 1 minute shooting (up to 10 rounds at 2 targets where half of the rounds hit each target simultaniously), 1 minute abandon position. Even if Russia deploys artillery detection systems, the PZH 2000 is long gone before they could counterfire - which they usually cannot as their artillery is neither precise enough nor able to reach the huge distance of up to 54km (default ammunition) or even 67km with specialised.
I love Poland just as much as I hate Nazi Russia I truly believe that Poland is the most advance country in Europe glory to Poland
Polska!!!!🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱
If I am correct, Poland and Germany used to be a single country called Prussia. This would seem to indicate that they are of the same stock. Is that true?
@@carlrogers8678 You are wrong. Learn the history.
Russia's Red Army kicked the Nazis out of Poland and liberatedd the concentration camps at the cost of tens of thousands of soldiers.
Oh that's right you guys were all Huns haha. Cheese get all upset why don't you.
Sweden should give at least 10 "Archers" 2 Ukraine.
Reznikov demands at least 100 HIMARS, so your 10 archeros won't do.
Sweden should send 12 Archer systems.
The logistics trains required to care for and feed these beauties must be a nightmare. But definitely worth it.
I fill up when I see all this support for Ukraine from it's NATO friends during a time of real need. This is how real friends behave towards each other. Perhaps I should consider Ukraine as part of the family since NATO is putting it's self at an acceptable risk in aiding Ukraine. Joining NATO is like joining a family, in the old days our princes and princesses would marry to form these family bonds and by unification we become stronger together. I think NATO should allow Ukraine to join ASAP and provide that next level of jeopardy for Putin's tyranny and show Russia we mean business by standing together. We are almost as "all in" as you can get without troops on the ground.
Stop Russia now or stop them later when they have expanded territory and resources through aggression.

Its amazing to think that Ukraine been getting handful of NATO weapons and managing to not just stall but also pushback Russian Invasion. Imagine what would happen to Russia if NATO got involved in direct conflict. Russia would be a toast without its nukes.
True. The reasons why NATO hasn’t are pretty obvious, though. There’s the nuclear danger, of course; and then there’s the fact that most of Europe made itself dangerous dependent on Russian oil & gas while it worked on “transitioning” to “renewables.” 🙄 Still, it is good seeing the US & our allies FINALLY working together to support a friend and ally.
a lot of improvement has been done to shoot and scoot expellent
Holy crap! This sounds awesome. Putler will not be a happy nazi.
A dozen SAAB-Volvo-Bofors Archers would be perfect companions to those heavy behemoths. And way lighter...
Slava Ukraini!
I agree with you but I guess those systems are too new and too secret to share.... but Archers would be nice for Ukraine
A nuclear bomb will suffice for ykrane!

Next month should be graduation for first wave of ukrainian fighters that are being trained by allied forces. We should start seening more wrapons being shipped ad well. This war is about to get real interesting. Russia is going to regret this war for a very long time.
Send everything
In the last two weeks these weapon systems have made a difference. One can’t help but think that Ukraine is in mop up mode because Russian equipment has been hit hard. What is left is random uncoordinated units and Ukraine keeps hitting them every hour that this war goes on. What will happen once there is only Russian infantry left? Surrender or onslaught?
Alas, for coming months Russia still hase a huge arsenal of guns and rocket artillery. Thats why the focus was to take out their ammo depots. They need to move those outside the himars range, doubling the logistic range for supplying their units. Soon or later, debate will start when to supply Ukraine with the long-range missiles, hitting targets hundreds of miles away.
We need to think in months, quarters and years instead of weeks or even days. But for the long run, Ukraine can build up their strength. In 6 months, they can start using western jets.
Newsflash: the U.S will ship another 4 Himars to ukraine, to a total of 16. Lavrov kiss my ***
@@cz1589 Russia has a logistics problem. They might attempt to disperse the ammunition rather than move it farther back. Also, my guess is that every time a Ukrainian civilian in an occupied zone sees A Russian depot they report it. Although I agree with thinking long term in terms of upgrading Ukraine to new weapons, Russians in the battlefield are now cracking under the pressure. It will be impossible to occupy this country. You think Afghanistan was bad, Ukrainians are relentless and motivated to delete every single occupier.

@@shesathome I was in the military and it is concerning how the Russians operate. They don’t even know how to advance on a target, or protect a vehicle. Do they train their troops?? Cannon fodder, suicide mission sure, but what is the long term objective? These guys are never going back home alive.

The ukrainians are getting some of the most powerfull mobile artillery tanks and air defence systems that the west has ever produced some of which have never seen combat lets hope its enough.
Oshkosh by gosh ....
I thought Napoleon was the "God of War".
Yes, they are piecing together quite an arsenal of artillery systems from around the world. Literally anything they can get their hands on as they are in a struggle for national existence. But, one of the things all of these "new" systems have in common is they are extremely dependent on advanced electronics to keep them operating. It is highly unlikely Ukraine will be able to develop the technical expertise to keep all of these disparate systems operational. In short, all of these different systems will and are creating a maintenance nightmare for a nation putting every able person on the front.
and yet, they are crushing Russia with ease :)
@@ChasseurTueur Are you joking? Based on third party eye witness accounts from the front lines this is simply not true. This is, and has been an incredibly hard fight with heavy losses on both sides.
It is about time. Vunderbar. On to Moscoq.

Ukraine crabs ! 🤭🥳🎉
haha, good one ;) Greetings from PL!
Bravo poland
Russia about to take a beaten
how much they going for on the dark net
The Cesar no my vote PzH 2000 & Archer 👍🏽
Why ? The Caesar is a very good system that have been operated in several wars and conflicts, unlike many other artillery systems. Nexter sold 330 units abroad, it's basically its bestseller and the system is very popular among Ukrainian artillerymen.
The PzH is an amazing system, super heavy and complicated but amazing. The Archer is excellent on paper but it never performs any operations during real conflicts. Being tested on a training range with all the repair, control, cleaning and storage abilities is very different than being operated on a battlefield with almost none of that. And it looks complicated and expensive, reason why it never reached any export market
Rock music showing deadly weapons is really necessary.
From someone who puts so much time and research into your videos one would think you would realize Ukraine is the one being "scorched"
People allways saying countries helping ukraine makes them really believe that they just help because they like the country. But no they only help because it is the best for them if ukraine has a chance of winning or at least hurting russia bad before going down. Its not because countries are nice.

Why can't the drone's being used in Ukraine have drop tanks for extended range and J Stars to help them take off heavy ❓❓❓❓❓❓❓❓
Once your artillery destroys the city you still need soldiers to hold the city. Artillery isn't everything
A good point, but surely that depends more on whether you're defending your own homeland, or occupying someone else's country.
Excalibur ammo with a Maximum range of 25 miles?? Lol, that is short of the facts. A lot.
Amazing all this tech was available 20yrs ago from a nation that was west friedly and was ignored costing 1000s of lives!!,
The war between Russia-Ukraine had became an artillery duels where both sides had use pieces with larger caliber and longer range. No longer a war of maneuvers of mass assaults, or frontal attacks. Latter these artilleries will likely hurled upwards towards mayhem targets tons of shells capable of eliminating industrial objectives or key infrastructures in one blow. This is the beginning that if one of them who had the limited nuclear tactical capability, it may give huge advantage in one strike, but is a dangerous precedent as it may invite same response from Ukranian NATO Allies.
I doubt Artillerie will end up to be the main use for a limitid tact nukes. That will be left to aircraft, drones etc
Russia wont use nukes.... Using nukes would end putins regime in next few days ether by the people of russia themselves or direct engagement between NATO and russia
Obviously the weapon to supplement the artillery would be the F16.
We're working on that.
Proud to Polish.
uhhh ... how scary. Provided they know how to use them. It's not a bottle of vodka ...
Yeah, but Kornets.
Only a little pity that clips of Czech representatives in the video show both the ex-prime minister and president who are considered Russian supporters and if the old government was still in place, help to Ukraine wouldn't definitely be that rapid as was.
The Russians dont have night vision? NAH FOR REALZ!
Too many different artillery systems. It would be informative to know which systems are most reliable, which are most effective and how the soldiers using the systems feel about them. Fuel, parts, powder, ammunition, trained mechanics, logisticians getting the parts etc. to the right units without any mix-ups. The crews, maintainers and supply folk need a big hug and a pay raise if they can pull all of this off effectively!
Well, there will be a lot of senior guys in the Ukrainian military that will now have a world-class experience with both Soviet and NATO weapon systems and have had a chance to test them all out in real battlefield conditions learning from them all.
Hope they can fixem when the break.
