Multi-purpose, mobility, ease of implementation, sustained firing capability and survivability are the key features of the CAESAR® arms system (compliant with the JB MoU 155mm / 52 caliber standard). It is fully interoperable with NATO 39 & 52 caliber ammunition. It meets the operational requirements, whatever the conflict level, theatre of operation or nature of the forces involved, thanks to its tactical mobility and maneuverability (6x6 truck chassis). Thus, CAESAR® is capable of supporting all types of motorized, mechanized or armored units, including rapid deployment forces. The CAESAR® firepower is enhanced by its speed of operation, longer range and improved accuracy. It fires six rounds and is out of action in less than 2 minutes. CAESAR® is effective in all combat missions, such as direct support fire, in-depth action fire, counter-battery fire and even coastal defense. Already available on two different 6x6 chassis, CAESAR® can be integrated on other carriers, depending on the user’s needs.
At Eurosatory 2010, the French Defense Company Nexter presented a new version of its wheeled self-propelled howitzer, the Caesar equipped with a new armor cabin which gives protection ballistic level-2 and 3A/2B mine aggressions, with standard Sherpa truck chassis. Caesar® Mk2 offers all the strong characteristics that have made Caesar® a success (long-range, accuracy, fully automatic aiming, and setting-up/salvo firing/exit time lower than three minutes. A crew from the French Army recently managed to fire eight munitions in less than one minute, during a demonstration. Caesar® artillery system is currently deployed in Afghanistan and has already been sold to four customers: France, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, and Thailand. |
