Singapore Technologies Kinetics is developing the
LWSPH program, a 7 ton system utilizing a 39 Cal 155 gun mounted
on a light, air transportable chassis which can be delivered by
C-130 aircraft and heavy lift helicopters. The system is powered
by a turbocharged intercooled diesel engine, and mounted on a
lightweight chassis for rapid deployment. The gun can utilize
standard projectiles to a range of 19km or extended range ERFB
munitions firing 2 - 6 rounds per minute to a maximum range of up
to 30km. |
