Markings and inscriptions on projectiles

A–3 – an American explosive consisting of a mixture of 91% RDX and 9% plasticizing oil, also known as microcrystalline wax;

Orienting a 64-00 mils panoramic sight with the PAB-2M aiming circle

1. The preliminary setup and orientation of the PAB-2M aiming circle is no different from the usual one. We end up with the aiming circle pointed in the main direction of fire (MDF) and the angle-measuring (red) scales zeroed.

How to enter the correction when firing illuminating projectiles

During night combat operations, artillery units, in addition to fire missions to engage targets, perform the following tasks:

Firing at high sight settings: why it is more effective

Why firing at high sight settings is more effective: how the angle of fall of a 155 mm projectile changes fragment dispersion, when ricochet works and why an airburst is better.

Propellant charge conversion table

able for converting bagged propellant charges into the MACS modular system

Calibrating the sighting devices of the FH70 gun

To calibrate the quadrant: Place the 155 mm FH-70 self-propelled towed howitzer on a hard surface, lower its support plate and raise the wheels.
