The K9 Thunder is a South Korean self-propelled 155 mm howitzer developed by Samsung Techwin for the Republic of Korea Armed Forces and now manufactured by Hanwha Land Systems. It was developed to supplement and then replace the K55 self-propelled howitzers in South Korean service.
K9 is an indigenous system of an all-welded steel armour construction which is rated to withstand 14.5 mm armour piercing rounds, 152 mm shell fragments, and anti-personnel mines. The main armament consists of a 155 mm/52 caliber ordnance with a maximum firing range of 40 km; the K307 BB-HE projectile propelled by the K676 top charge has a muzzle velocity of 928 m/s (3,040 ft/s). State-of-the-art mobility subsystems include a 1,000 horsepower (750 kW) engine with potential for growth and hydropneumatic suspension unit, a requirement for Korea's rugged mountainous terrain.
M270D1 (MLRS) - Heavy Rocket Launcher 298 RSRAKH 06 (MLRS)
The MLRS is used for joint fires and the support of the combat formations.
Rate of fire: 12 rockets per minute
Range: Approximately 12- 400 km depending on ammunition.
Spike SR - The anti-tank missile PSTOHJ SR is a combatant’s single use anti-tank weapon, intended primarily against heavy main battle tanks, but it is also suitable for destroying assault vehicles and light vehicles, as well as weapon emplacements.
AMOS is a mortar system used by readiness brigades, introduced into service in the Finnish Defence Forces in 2013. Its use bases on a twin-barrelled vehicle making up an autonomous fire unit. Fire units may be used together in the main effort area or by distributing fire support to all fighting troops as necessary. AMOS is capable of firing a total of eight grenades hitting their target simultaneously using the multiple-round simultaneous impact principle. The system can open fire in less than 30 seconds and leave firing position in under 10 seconds after firing.
Finnish Defence Forces new counter battery radar system Tytka 21. This is simultaneous artillery counterbattery weapon locating for hostile firing units, friendly fire ranging, and air surveillance missions.
