M777 HOWITHOW CANNON SOUND – OBUS SHOOTING – sound effect
The M777 is a towed howitzer developed by the British Vickers Group, and produced by BAE Systems Land & Armaments in the US. It is in the process of replacing the M198 howitzer in the United States Marine Corps and the United States Army. . The M777 is also used by the Royal Canadian Artillery Regiment, and has been used in Afghanistan along with the GPS-guided munition called the M982 Excalibur. It is also being evaluated by the British Army as a candidate to replace the L118 in some regiments.
The M777 is being manufactured by BAE Systems’ Global Combat Systems Division. The first management contract was based in Barrow-in-Furness in the United Kingdom, in addition to the manufacture and assembly of the titanium structures and associated components of the weapon’s recoil. Final integration and testing is performed at BAE’s facility in Hattiesburg, Mississippi.
The M777 was conceived as a light mobile howitzer (OUM), developed by VSEL’s weapons division in Barrow-in-Furness, United Kingdom. In 1999 VSEL and BAE Systems RO Defense merged. This unit became part of BAE Systems Land & Armaments in 2004. Although developed by a British company, final assembly is carried out in the United States. BAE Systems’ initial American partner was United Defense. However in 2005, BAE acquired United Defense and is therefore responsible for design, construction and assembly (through the American subsidiary of BAE Systems Land & Armaments). 70% of M777 parts are built in the US including the gun tube manufactured at Watervliet Arsenal
The M777 is lighter and smaller, weighing just over 3,175 kg, it is 42% lighter than the M198 it replaces. Most of the weight reduction is due to the use of titanium. The lower weight and size allows the M777 to be transported by the V 22 Osprey, CH-47 or truck with ease, meaning it can move on and off the battlefield more quickly than the M198. The smaller size also improves storage efficiency in military warehouses/Naval cargo transportation. There is also a reduction in crew required over the M198 from 9 to 5.
The M777 uses a digital fire control system similar to that found on self-propelled howitzers such as the M109A6 Paladin to provide navigation, aiming and homing, allowing it to be put into action more quickly than traditional trailing and airborne. The Canadian M777s, in addition to using traditional optical systems, also use a fire control system called Digital Fire Direction System (DGMS).
The M777 is often offered with the new GPS-guided Excalibur ammunition, which allows accurate firing up to 40 km. This almost doubles the operating area of a single battery to about 5,000 km². In a test conducted at the Yuma Shooting Range, 13 of the 14 “Excalibur” shots were fired from a distance greater than 24 km, the targets occurred within a diameter of 10 meters of their target, suggesting an error probable circular of about 5 meters.
