China’s New Ammunition Doubles the Range of Its Old Artillery
Posted: December 14, 2016 | Author: chankaiyee2
Life ammunition drill with the new ammunition
China has developed new ammunition for its existing artillery to double their range. In order to effectively use the increase range, a Chinese artillery regiment has replaced its wire communication system with optical fiber telecommunication system supported by relay to wireless and satellite communication networks.
Its reconnaissance capabilities have been enhanced by data sharing with drone units and the army’s air force. As a result, it is able to detect target further and quicker so as to have more time to adjust their cannons to accurately hit their remote targets.
