SA Artillery Pics

[Vorster]

Hi guys here is some pics from the recent artillery open day. Bat died on the camera before I could a pic of the MRLs firing a ripple. What a sight. I was standing about 25m away and the earshattering roar and sight of the rockets rippling out is down right... well I had to change my pants.

Here are some pics of the G5 in action. Whe were about 25m behind them sorry about the qaulity. SA sun and dust makes it difficult to take pics. If you hang on a bit a video of the open day may be avialable soon.

I heard that India purchased about 250 total G5 and G6, is this true?

That is news to me don't they use the finnish guns? They were planning to buy our ammo for 52 cal 155mm howitzers though
