Menjaju haubice
USAF’s 105mm gunship howitzer, which replaces the obsolete M102
Citat:The obsolete US Air Force M102 air gun will gradually be replaced by an updated 105mm gun. The M102 is actually a howitzer that is mounted on gunships [a military aircraft armed with heavy aircraft guns]. The M102 has been part of the armament of the AC-130 gunship for decades.
The updated 105mm howitzer was recently spotted on the U.S. Air Force AC-130J Ghostrider gunship. It happened during an event in New Mexico involving the 17th Special Operations Squadron. A 105mm howitzer is mounted on the fuselage of the aircraft at the rear on the left side. The gunship’s main gun is usually located right there.
