The AS-90 is the latest new AFV to enter British Army service and is
thought by many to be the most advanced mobile artillery system in the
World.. The AS-90 carries a crew consisting of the driver plus four or
three operators.The AS-90 is fitted with a 155 mm 39 or 52 calibre gun
barrel. The system fires the full range of current NATO 155 mm
ammunition. Fitting a 52 calibre barrel instead of the standard 39
calibre extends the range beyond 40 kilometres. The vehicle is powered
by a Cummins 660 horsepower V8 diesel engine. The vehicle is of
all-welded steel armour construction which is rated to withstand impact
by 7.62 mm and 14.5 mm armour piercing shells and 152 mm shell
fragments. An enhanced version of the Howitzer, the Desert AS-90
(AS-90D), has been built to provide high capability in arduous desert
conditions, including a thermal cover installed on the turret roof and
solar reflective paint providing protection for the crew against hot
metal burns. The AS-90 entered service with the British Army in 1992 and
went into service in 1993, and has now replaced both the Abbott 105mm
S.P. and the M109 155mm S.P. with the Royal Artillery. AS-90 is deployed
in Germany and with IFOR in the former Yugoslavia.
