    "Base bleed" projectiles reduce the aerodynamic drag of their big flat bottom surface by having a relatively small, slow-burning gas generator in there.
    It's too small to generate thrust like a RAP, but the idea is it creates a plume of hot gas behind the shell, and that reduces the air which gets sucked around the sides and back up under it, which is otherwise a major source of drag on artillery shells.
    They're fairly cheap and easy to make, small enough to not really harm the shell's explosive charge, and pretty significantly improves their range, so a lot of modern artillery shells are base bleed.

    NBC = Nuclear Biological Chemical
    It's fairly standard for most combat vehicles to be NBC protected. Of course that only works with the hatch closed. The air inside is pressurized to have a higher pressure than the outside system. All outside air is pumped through a filter. Electronics monitor for detectable traces of chemical weapons and an alarm is sounded if found so the crew can get their gas masks on.
    Extended: My guess is that they just add an extra propellant charge. Just a guess though.
    Base bleed: The shell is specially shaped at the rear end that optimizes air flow and reduces drag by a significant amount. Look up base bleed airodynamics

    I found that when letting the Nona’s ai shoot, it has pinpoint accuracy, literally hitting the exact point I set as a target. Also in the msta, pressing Q will give you control of the machine gun. (Q switches turret control, the MG on the msta and other tanks are on a separate turret on the top.)

    Quite late, but a few things that can be answered. On the rear of the 2S19 Msta is the loading tray. Standard of Soviet/Russian guns in the 122mm and up rage, shells are generally 2 piece (projectile and charge) so inside the rear of the Msta's turret, 6 (IIRC) moving conveyors that separately hold projectiles and casings. This way, it can hold a fair amount of shells inside. To aid, the projectile is dropped onto a try which drops the round a fair distance down to the breech, a chain rammer shoves the shell in, returns, the casing is dropped down next, chain rammer rams it, the breech automatically closes, rammer returns, and the gun is ready to fire (casings are ejected out the front below the barrel after firing as well). The other tube, going by typical Soviet MBT's, should be a snorkel for fording rivers.
    The M109 is not a fast firing system. After firing, the bore and breech plug are given a quick clean after a few, rounds, sometimes after each one. Shells are loaded by hand and then rammed in (either by I believe a hydraulic ram attached to the breech or by a ram rod), the charge(s) placed in (small combustible charges that are easy to load), the plug closed and locked, a primer loaded, and fired by lanyard. Not the fastest, but it works and has been used for a long time.
    For the 2S1 Gvozdika, yes, propelled by tracks is possible and has been used on various other Soviet vehicles like the BMP-1 and 2, MT-LB, and their variants. Not a very fast method of moving, but it does the job for crossing rivers and other short water crossings. NBC stands for Nuclear, Biological, Chemical. NBC protections are to protect crews from any such threats if said weapons are ever encountered on the battlefield which was a very high risk during the cold war and continues today. Vehicle depending, air intakes may be closed and fans turned off for a second while air scrubbers and filters are put to use to filter any air entering the vehicle. More common to some Soviet vehicles (like a T-62 or T-72 for example), air pressure may be increased inside the vehicle to allow ejection ports to safely open for a second for casing ejection.
    2S1 continued: Yes, 2 piece ammunition, projectile followed by the casing. Able to keep a good RoF thanks to the assisted loading system where a shell is placed on a tray which sits to the right of the gun (with the tray holding the round at an upward angle), shoving it over to the loading position trips a switch which drops the tray and has a chain rammer ram the shell, a casing is then placed on the tray followed by the loading pushing a button that drops the tray and rams the casing followed by returning the tray back to the right of the gun and arming the gun for firing. Somewhat similar to the system of the T-10 heavy tank.
    In terms of ammo - Nona: I think 20, but I can't be sure. M109: I believe 39 on the A6 variant. Gvozdika: 40 I believe. Msta: 50 rounds. Akatsiya: I've heard as low as 35 and as high as 46. DANA: Not so sure (don't know much on this guy), but it seems to be 60 from what I have read. Note that most of the time, multiple guns are set up with ammunition carriers outside to feed a consistent supply of ammunition to the vehicles.

  • @zackesseth
    @zackesseth Před 5 lety +1

    So the extended range is probably based on the later upgraded barrel or an alternate +p munition.
    The gvozdika probably propels itself in water by flats on its tracks like how the Big Foot monster truck raced a boat in a river. Not efficient but can get the job done.
    And yes, you use powder bags to adjust the power of the round. Doing this you can launch 3 shells at different angles and have them all land on the same spot at roughly the same time. There was a cool documentary on the military channel once explaining this and showing it in action on a German artillery tank.
    One of the cool things about howitzers is that they are designed to fire both as artillery and as direct fire weapons for close engagements. I would hate to fight with one in such a manner but it can be done!

      Dana itself is from Slovakia (in the era of its design it was Czechoslovakia), but the camouflage pattern is probably modern Czech one (roundel is same for Czechoslovakia and later Czech republic).
      Do not take this as granted but formal czechoslovak army was using mostly one colour to paint its army vehicles. Camouflage patterns were used during exercises (and would be used in conflict) and were made with colours that could be washed away. Thus 3-colour permanent pattern is most likely today's Czech one.
      Slovak ones are IMHO still in 1 shade of khaki green and polish ones use also some brown shade in their pattern

    Since the 2s9 is an aluminium, air droppable SPG , is there a way to load it on the IL76 I've seen in game? It would be cool to see it shoved out the back of a large aircraft. Or even a LAPE... just wondering out loud.
