That nuke arty killed a squad of soldiers in White Sands. Film in a 20th century documentary. He is captain on left. They were put in wrong trench less than a mile from ground zero. No protection, just fatigues helmet and sunglasses. Most disregarded orders and stood up too soon. They died in few years. Dad waited longer. And slowly died with impaired immune system. With frequent pnuemonia, etc. And pulling an oxygen tank around. From strong tough soldier (SC and CID and arty MOS's) to weakened, often very sick drawn out death over some years. Died at 61. Rest of family lasted to late 80's and 90's. God grant we never have a nuke war. RIP Dad. CW4 KMS.
Too hard to work with Pion on modern war. Not enough ammo, a lot of time to change position, hard to make directly fire. Nowadays, the task of the minimum for Pion is to intimidate the infantry (and he copes 100%), the task maximum – is to put the infantry into pieces.
I trained on the M110 (8 inch SP Howitzer) in 1984. Several on the M109A4 155mm Sp Howitzer for 4 years and we were nuke capable. It wasn't just a "thought". It was a thing.
This guy makes killing and destruction sound like a football game this is the rydell 1 inch cleat used by defensive linemen to get better traction I guess war is always going to be a reality might as well enjoy it
King of the battle
Oh damn! I really want a few of them!!
NUCLEAR ARTILLERY? NEVER SAY NEVER

Don't take the Lord's name in vain
JLATTJ !
M-110 203 mm was also designed for nuclear shells.
Ruptured ear drum? Tinnitus? Permanent hearing loss? Never heard of it.
JUST past 50 km. Keep in mind that is rocket artillery. A standard round is more like 37 km. Still nothing to scoff at. Dude. Crew of 14!

Mighty bold to have it set up in a cornfield
I hope at least one of them is called Biggus Dikkus
FRENCH CLUSTER BOMS USED BY UKRAINE AGAINST CIVILIANS
If you can only fire the Carl G 4 times in a 24hr period supposedly….How many pulls off that bitch can the crew take??? Overpressure has to be insane
Nuclear artillary was more than a thought. 155mm nuclear shells went through several generations.
Dad was a Artillery Soldier before SF. He raised us to know there are guns such as these and that pistols / revolvers aren't.
The Schwerer Gustav had kids
I'm wondering after how many shots do you get new ear drums.

Tbh it looks badass
It’s good to see heavy artillery in use.
Medium artillery is fun but this looks extra fun.
The US used something similar in Vietnam didn't they?
only US army tested tactical nuclear ammunition on real soldiers of its own army
Du as a

Pea shooter
Damn shockwave from the end looks like a viable weapon on its own
One hell of a bonfire burning unused charge bags.
Why did you say ukraine artilery in title if you said in vid that it is used by also russia and other countries
