self-propelled Hawitzer category. The French army has been using the Caesar self-propelled Hawitzer during most of its last
0:23
external operations. Afghanistan, Chamnale, Task Force, Vargas. These are names that sold the Caesar brilliantly demonstrate its assets
0:34
The major asset is that Nexter produces and designs both the cannon and its ammunition for the Caesar system
0:41
which means a wide range of conventional ammunition available including the L-U211
0:47
Let's point at the ability to find bonus smart ammunition, an anti-tank ammunition ordered by many countries, including the USA, and Katana, the next-generation precision ammunition

2:09
Nextair also points at its image as an innovator. In the field of robotics, it creates handling aid, means of protection and operations
2:17
observation. In the field of training, it creates operational and maintenance simulation
2:23
models, 3D glasses, etc, with a great attention paid to the concepts of weight and movement
2:31
Nexta also created new ammunition, Spacido, Catana, bonus, and insensitive armor. The company works permanently on design improvements to increase range accuracy and effects of ammunition on the battlefield For example the bonus ammo enables to hit two targets close to each other within one minute A difference between the Caesar 6x6 and 8 by 8 resides in the loading system On the 6x it manual
3:03
as the French army consider it's more adequate to have the crew operate from outside the system
3:09
Concerning the mobility of the Caesar, the customer has the choice regarding the chassis on which the how it is mounted
3:16
Nextair is indeed doubly armed by offering two versions of the Caesar

Other options on customer request should be validated. The protection provided to the crew can be upgraded with a heavier armored cabin
3:39
The Caesar can be connected to other army systems to take part in collaborative combat
3:44
From an industrial point of view, CESA benefits from developments made for other platforms
3:51
Multipurpose, mobility, ease of implementation, sustained firing capability and survivability are the key features of the CESAR arms system
4:00
compliant with the JBA MOU 155mm 52 caliber standard. It's fully interoperable with NATO 39 and 52 caliber ammunition
4:11
It meets the operational requirements whatever the conflict level theater of operation or nature of the forces involved thanks to its tactical mobility and maneuverability
4:24
Thus, CESA is capable of supporting all types of motorized, mechanized or armoured units, including rapid deployment forces
4:33
The CESA firepower is enhanced by its speed of operation, longer range and improved accuracy
4:39
Caesar is effective in all combat missions such as general and direct support fire, counter-battery fire and even coastal defense
4:49
Already available on two different chassis. In six-by-sixth barren, Cesar can be integrated on other carriers depending on users' needs
4:58
The last version of the cannon, the Caesar Mike 2, is equipped with the new armored cabin that gives protection ballistic level 2
5:06
and to level three for mine aggressions with standard Sherpa truck chassis
5:12
Caesar Mark II offers all the strong characteristics that have made Caesar a success
5:17
Long range, accuracy, full automatic, aiming and setting up salvo-firing, exit time lower than three minutes
5:26
Caesar artillery system, which is currently deployed in Afghanistan and has already been sought to several customers
