Le Système Archer
l faut vous dire que lorsque j’ai aperçu le Caesar pour la première fois je suis resté septique, Un canon de 155 sur un petit camion alors que jusqu'à présent c’était un châssis de X30 qui transportait cette pièce
A ce jour l armée suédoise possède un parc d artillerie traditionnel avec des ensembles chenilles et des pièces tractées. Tout comme les français les études des stratèges portant sur l après guerre froide ont débouché sur le constat que les engins chenillés porteur de pièce de gros calibre vont devenir rapidement obsolètes et que l’avenir appartient au système d artillerie à roues. C’est vers ce système que les suédois vont s’orienter. A première vue l’Archer s’apparente beaucoup au Caesar par sa conception. Toutefois en regardant de plus prêt ils diffèrent sur beaucoup de points. Certes les deux systèmes sont aérotransportables par le futur Airbus A400 M et ils peuvent se déplacer rapidement sur les axes routiers. Par contre l 'Archer il est beaucoup plus lourd que le Caesar et le véhicule moteur n’est pas un camion tout terrain mais un engin de carrière adapté pour une nouvelle fonction .

I must tell you that when I saw the Caesar for the first time I stayed septic A barrel of 155 on a small truck while it was normaly a AMX30 carrying this gun Is that reasonable?. So what about the Archer, a canon of 155 on a Dumper chassis: Engineers are be crazy? Well, after mature reflection I think not, but only future will give the answer Cold War led to the realization of heavy and powerful. weapon system These systems are needed to combat in Central Europe and to prevent troops from the Warsaw Pact result of the pass of Fulda. During half a century armaments on both sides of the Iron Curtain will be based on this observation, as well as for the tanks to artillery systems. The fall of the Berlin Wall followed by the implosion of the USSR the disappearance of the Warsaw Pact led to the obscolecence for certain types of equipment, and will lead to a questioning of established dogmas End of bigs unities will result in France, for example, the end of military service and the disappearance of many regiments The transfeormation will be deep in various countries. But the Gulf War still mos showed that the heavy equipment from the Cold War must always be present. The end of the Cold War by bringing about the demise of the traditional enemy a permit if one can say the birth of minor conflicts but at higth intensity. For these types of conflicts materials must be lightweight powerful and rapidly available on theater of operation by airr. For this types of material artillery for example ,the AUF1, M109, PZ 2000 are like dinosaurs because they are not adapted to a low intensity conflict and for a rapid deployment While the firepower is real ( see the episode of the AUF 1 in Mount Igman in 1995) but their weight and mass forbids them to be readily available. The future is the vehicle lighter and faster as the Caesar or Archer. Both artillery systems are ideally suited and will find themselves in competition Archer System
So far the Swedish army has a traditional artillery park with tracked and wheeled vehicles. Like french strategists studies on the post-Cold War led to the finding that the tracked vehicle carrying a large-caliber gun will quickly become obsolete and that the future belongs to a wheeled artillery system It was around this system that will move Swedish. At first glance the Archer has lot of to Caesar by design But un some degree because, looking more near they he differ on many points . While both systems are air transportable by the future Airbus A400 M, and they can move quickly on the roads. On the contrary, while Archer is much heavier than Caesar and the vehicle is not an all-terrain truck, but a dumper adapted for a new feature. While this system has many positive camouflage the artillery piece, which is hidden in a "sarcophagus" during the road trip while the Caesar can not conceal his gun But the dumper system is limited on speed by the design of the chassis Initial studies began in 1995 1998 when the Swedish HQ decided to launch a study on a new 155-howitzer. The study ends in 2003 Being time data geostrategic who changed the weapon system will evolved into an original system Between 2004 and 2006 we will build and develop 2 weapon systems based on a Dumper emerged from the civil range of Volvo. The first system will be delivered in early 2006 and it is that you are being offered in this photoscope Studies continue to arrive in 2009 on the construction of the Archer series, which must be delivered in 2010 / 2012 to Sweden. Meanwhile Denmark joined in the project This system is therefore based on civil dumper Compared to Caesar it possesses qualities All-terrain capacities superior but Caesar is much faster and easier to use than the Archer Description It is avehicle derived from Volvo A30 Type D 6X6; The pictures of the civilian vehicle were those of a 25 A D (only the engine that changes thecabin is the same) The front is hinged rear a central axis It is an6 X 6 . The cabin enlarged to accommodate the crew and on the back of the cabin we find storage compartments. The cabin is protected from the canister from the battlefields and it is protected NRBC
The archer has a 340 HP engine with a range of 500 km and a speed of 70 km / h During displacement it is able to carry out raids in complete autonomy of 500 kilometers in one day In contrast to raids longer progression is only 160 km per day It can also be transported over a road and train because it is not binding on the size It may also be transported by sea and air through the future A400 m The Weapon system It's a howitzer 77 b 155-mm 52 calibers It has an automatic loading system that can fire a salvo of 9 sheels / minute at 30 km During the endurance test he was made a fire of 72 shots in 35 minutes Reloading takes 8 minutes The store Barrel has 20 sheels and 18 charges He has a 50 MG as self defence ans smoke discharger gallix It can also be armed by other self-defense systems It is equipped with GPS and its firing is a PC DART Other vehicles are planned on this chassis as the refuelling and maintenance vehicles Technical data (Range civil Volvo A30 D)
