Description
It is hard to overestimate the importance of artillery in modern warfare. Artillery has excellent firepower and can inflict massive damage on the enemy. It can be used to destroy military equipment and manpower, destroy defense structures, and disturb the enemy's logistical operations far behind the frontline.
Since the beginning of the full-scale war, the Western allies have transferred a lot of modern, effective artillery to Ukraine. See some of them in this video.

Denmark sent all of our Caesars to Ukraine. Hope the 19 Caesars are doing well and helping Ukraine.
Thank you Denkmark!
Greetings from Germany
tak til danskerne for deres flittige indsats.
There are crowd funding and collection of money from some Ukrainian and foreign groups to donate drones to the Ukrainian army plus Ukraine is starting to increase its weapon production .
Things could change unexpectedly...Everything is possible...
Remember that although money and arms do play a big role in a war but there is something that money alone and military power can not necessarily bring into life and that is the goodwill to live and evolve ...
Sing the song of freedom
And allow life to be
created to all you and me
Liberty coming above the sea ,
Know the truth to set you free
It is a better world for all to see
Being reborn again is a key ...
France is sending 8 a month, every month now. Along with Ukraine has a repair station in their borders.
I just wonder it takes so long to be given to Ukraine may the very good lord be whit you and keeping you all safe❤❤❤❤
Being french, I could find this from french sources about CAESAR:
IN 2022-2023 30 CAESAR were sent from France and Denmark (which first gave a few CAESAR, then changed its mind and gifted the entirety of its own order to Ukraine). Of those 30 vehicles, 5 have been destroyed since the beginning of the war.
Since then France has announced that after having built new production lines its production has ramped from 2 per month to 8 per month at this point. At this point Ukraine has around 50 CAESARs, and France will deliver this year 78 more units to Ukraine.
France has also announced that starting this year, it would build factories in western Ukraine to allow direct maintenance and parts productions in Ukraine, incuding for the CAESAR vehicles.
@@_bearcat Great, even if they make 1000 a day, it wont make a difference UNTIL russians are firing 5:1 or so. France is producing some very small ammount of 155mm shells, so its not about guns and weapons but the ammo. Without ammo, those fancy SPGs and howitzers are nothing. So, you are telling they are building plants in Ukraine to maintain those systems - does that include shells or Ukraine will have to rely AGAIN on deliveries??? IF western countries REALLY want Ukraine to prevale, there would already be scores of such factories in western Ukraine. West ONLY wants this war to last as lon as possible, as they believe it will weaken Russia - but it failed and Russia ramped up its military production and its economy is in war-mode for 3 yrs. They ramped up production of t90M, t72 (with bunch of letters), cruise missiles, drones etc. But, biggest issue for UA are soldiers. Ukraine is just not capable anymore to replace nor rotate weared units on the frontline... I always supported weaker side, wheather its a fist fight or war. But this looks like alerady battered fighter that now has only left arm is trying to beat Mike Tyson in its prime and crowd supports armless fighter, whilst throwing drinks and snacks on Mike, prologing the inevitable KO.

May be the very best video done by UATV English. TY for making it in the English language. Wonderful to hear from the crew members.
check out the sniper video they did
UNITED 24, thank you for extensive and accurate reporting,the West needs to see this
To all democracy loving peoples of the world, support Ukraine, stand with Ukraine!
The problem for Ukraine is the u.s. cannot support them much longer with weapons. The Ukrainians need to get along with Russia especially that Ukraine has been losing for a long time. The u.s. needs to mind its own business and stop sticking their noises were it doesn’t belong. Ukraine is being bombed thanks to the u.s..
United we are strong
And we cant let Putin win this.....
-Slava Ukraine!
Totally agree! Highfive here from Denmark 💙💛🇩🇰
God curse democracy. Long live autocracy.
it is outstanding that the pzh2000 wich was build in 1998 can still compete with every other artillery in the world what a beast..
It was heartening to see the joy of the soldier. You would be very confident and happy giving such a machine to someone like him. They never explained fully what makes it so good. Id recommend googling it to see exactly why he likes it. A serious piece of artillery. That target was destroyed with one shot from a great distance. 1998 would be considered brand new compared with most of the stuff there
Pretty new for artillery systems
i mean. the vast majority of artillery systems are still somewhat "primitive". computer aiming and full automation is very new for artillery as they where previously deemed not be very accurate so computers wouldnt help that much, but as munition and computers also improved, it granted a much bigger leap in performance. as mentioned by the archer commander. it aims at targets, not grids. most artillery still targets grids, many of these grids are quite large and require heavy saturation to hit its intended target. so going from stationary manual artillery to the PZH2000 or the archer is like going from super props to afterburner capable jets. in a world where the vast majority of artillery are on super prop levels, PZH2000 being on the level of a F14 vs the archer being a F18, while one being better, both are so much better than the majority that they all end up on roughly the same level.
Imagine archer beeing older and still beeing more modern and reliable =)
@@emptyforrest It's not uncommon in modern systems though, PzH 2000 isn't really unique - the Archer is capable of that as you mentioned, so is the Krab, K9 or the multiple Czech and Slovak wheeled SPGs (Morana, Zuzana 2 and so on).
It's just that most of the artillery systems out there (by raw numbers, not by types) aren't that modern - a lot of countries still use the M109 which is a very obsolete system, comparable to the Soviet 2S3.
Européens, soutenons l'Ukraine libre et combattante!
I am glad that most of us Europeans have learned from the past centuries.
Oui, l'Europe doit combler le vide laissé par les États-Unis ayant abandonné l'Ukraine après toutes leurs promesses.
Yes, agree.

Yesterday the Netherlands had its last flight of F16 they are gonna be transferred soon
3:35 In a better world, he would have been just as excited about training with the PzH after Ukraine joined NATO. But without the pains and horrors of a Russian invasion.
WHERE ARE POLISH KRABS?!
There is a video on United 24 dedicated to AHS Krabs, Ukrainian gunners speak highly of them.
@@peakeverything7531i don't understand why IT isn't mentioned here since IT is the most numerous system in Ukraine and the the most potent.

And where is the AHS Krab? You know, you got more than 50 of them...
They’ve forgotten about it. Estonia also gave the biggest contribution according to the ratio of their capabilities. But…unfortunately,it’s our reality
The Swedish Archer system is impressive 🔥
"Sniper howitzer" what a combination of words.

Such nice European systems. The US needs to rev its gun-based artillery tech.
There were so many programs to replace the M109 and they all failed.

Who made this video ? Where is AHS KRAB ?
It looks like the CAESAR is one of the most relevent artillery systems for Ukrain : highly accurate, quick battery, light weight, reliable, cheap and easy to maintain...
Yeah Caesar is a towed gun replacement.
And zero Krab, huh? Thanks from Poland.

@@84erElessarok, gotcha
@@HedgehogZone Because?
The M270 MLRS is missing here. Though of US origin, mostly were European countries, like the UK, to provide these "dad" Himars versions with tracks and not wheels to Ukraine. Rocket capacity is double of the Himars, but speed (hit and scoop is the key here) is about half. Range is the same as the ammo used is also the same used on the M142 Himars. These system saw action for the first time during the Gulf War. No longer in production since 2003, still very useful for the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Slava Ukraine
Chip on your shoulder, regarding HIMARS?
You a brit?
@@Drochaid nope. From an EU member state.
Slava Ukraini
all systems very important! I hope you get more of these + ammo for this.
Thanks. Great stuff. Good hunting.
What about AHS Krab provided by Poland? Ukraine got over 100 of them...and PZH2000 only ~30...
Thanks United 24! I enjoy your reports. Keep well. 💙💛
Archer SWE💓UA
Much more interesting than the weapons systems that everyone is talking about are the ones that are kept secret. For example, the COBRA artillery radar that Germany supplied. Is it destroyed or in operation? If it hasn't been destroyed yet but no news can be found, it is probably worth the effort to keep it secret. Himars is all well and good but you don't hear or see anything about the M270s. Are they so bad or good that you hardly know anything about them? And many others.
This video is about artillery systems, not radars. M270 is using the same pod as HIMARS, but it's 27 years older. UA are under no obligation to provide videos of ANYTHING to the public, and providers of them and of radar systems especially may indeed have demanded they keep them out of the public eye.
🇫🇮💓🇺🇦💪🏻👌🏻
💙💛💪
5 shots fired at different times hitting the same target at the same time 😮
I read that the biggest advantage of the towed M777 is that it is much lighter than other similar howitzers. This allows more M777 to be put on a transport aircraft , or to be sling loaded by a helicopter. I don't think Ukraine is air transporting the M777 much, but the light weight must make ground handling easier too.
Ground handling is not so much an issue with tracked vehicles, or the arches articulated mid steering, all these vehicles have a very low ground pressure. However, the M777 is probably less expensive which makes it available in larger numbers.
Us have the best howitzers in the world in all classes
@@LSmoney215 not in all classes
@@leonj.6665Yes, all classes, and that is because the digital firing system delivers absolute accuracy, which allows target destruction with less munitions. Regardless this tech is on most NATO guns, so its moot.
Towed guns are obsolete. Why french Caesar was designed to replace them at 19 tons is useful.
Awesome!❤❤❤
That guy talking about the panzerhowitzer needs to get laid more.
In all seriousness big thank you to the men and women fighting tyranny and oppression.
and where is mention about AHS Krab ??currently is the best one !!!
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
The Philippine Army is also using a self-propelled gun similar to the French Caesar... The Israeli ATMOS 2000...
where's British AS90?
British AS90 isnt nearly as advanced as the others. My father used to work on them in the REME. We are basucally ditching AS90 for the Swedish Archer which in all hoensty is just miles better then AS90.
With the Krab.
@@ashleygoggs5679 with all due respect, the Archer is the equivalent of the F-22 of the howitzer world. Just wish it had longer range, but we cannot have it all can we?
@@TankandDimples that along with the problem that the crew is not protected makes it a problem. I think it is surely one of the best in the world, better then Caesar or M109 or M 777 and so on. I do not know why they didn't put the AS 90 on the list, because it is also one of the best in the world. The mrsi is also not the best with 3 shots compared to 5 or 6. It is a great system but doesn't fit heavy combat situations on a more flat ground. The PZH 2000 can shoot 5 times in mrsi, can shoot a distance of up to 75 km and is able to shoot 10 shells per minute untill the magazine of 60 rounds is empty. In combat situations against Tank battalions or so, it is not good to be unprotected even if you are 20 km away. Yes it is a great system but why didnt they make a cabin for the crew that would be so much better and safer.
You have got to love the shoot and scoot capabilities of modern western artillery.
A very interesting conventional weapon!!! Roa Aotearoa nui.
I still don't get how Ukraine manages to bring sooo many different weaponsystems to good use. I mean it continues with the tanks, the handguns etc
Par ce qu'ils sont formés.
Par exemple plusieurs milliers de soldats ont été formés en France sur les ceasars et autres machines en + des combats.
Et il me semble que d'autres pays de l'Europe les forment aussi.
🇨🇵🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦
From America: Great Documentry. Those Military Weapons are beautiful. I stand with Ukraine & Isreal ✌
a shell cost 800$-5000$ + the artillery pieces, Drones are still cheaper so good chance that even artillery gets replaced by drones. As soon as they can add some simple ai for the final targetting, incase of jamming. You only need drones even seen jet powered drones that can act as air defence.

No Krab?
And how about polish Crab?
Yes no country should invade an independent country.
1:30 The Russians are obviously not very proficient at battery counterfire, or that final segment would have been made inside the car while driving away.
Their proficiency doesn't really matter, because CAESARs are usually already on the move when the first shell hits, thus counterfire will just hammer an empty position.
"Tailored for shoot-and-scoot tactics, the CAESAR is fast to set up, taking around 60 seconds for the crew to be ready to fire and 40 seconds to leave after the shots. It can fire six rounds per minute."
All artillery systems have their perks, but if I had to pick one for the job, the CAESAR would be it. Hits as far & hard as the others, but fundamentally easier to operate, maintain & repair, lower profile & operational footprint, and most mobile of all. CAESARs are the kind of artillery you need for 21st century warfare. The others are either too static, or over-engineered.
Both Caesars and Archers are gone before the shell lands.
@@nian60 If you counter battery does not have shells in the air before the incoming shell is at its apex, you are not doing counter battery fire.
Of course, the counter battery radars that pick up those shells are extremely visible in the radio wave spectrum, and thus vulnerable.
@@nian60 Also, if you wait until the shell lands you have no trajectory to use to find the artillery that shot at you,.
@@nian60 Absolutely, but what I pointed out is the issue of mobility AND/OR over-engineering, depending on the system. Archers fall in the second category, without providing significant/mission critical benefits over the CAESAR.
All these systems may have their place on the battlefield, but imo the French took the most balanced & operationally sensible path with their artillery piece.
Nothing on Krabs
I guess they don't like the Krab.
Nevermind 4 weeks ago you uploaded a Krab video
The HIMARS photo on the video thumbnail was actually taken from the Philippines during joint training in 2023 between Philippines and American forces.
where is Krab? it's gone?
Reps libetate the US help!
I take that archer . Nice and cozy during winters, unlike some of those other systems
I always wondered how come nobody developed SPG or MLR system that shoots on the move. If tanks are built thatway for a long time - why not?
They all say "we fired few rounds and we swiftly changed the position"...

Favorite lancet
United24 Do you think the drone based on the A-22 air frame could carry stinger missiles to the Caspian Sea to intercept the TU-95 bombers. Timing would be critical but I think it should be able to carry at least 2 missiles
When ? Next year ?
You forgot about the M270, it's basically a more powerful HIMARS with 12 missiles instead of only 6
