M109G 155mm / L23 Self Propelled Howitzer

The M109 is an American 155mm self-propelled howitzer first introduced in the early 1960s to replace the M44.

In the period from 1964 to 1972, a total of 586 American self-propelled howitzers were converted to the M109G by Rheinmetall for the German Army.
The conversion affected the entire weapon system with the barrel, the smoke extractor, a two-chamber muzzle brake and a flat breech as well as other modifications such as the German panoramic telescope, a tank telescopic sight and the smoke grenade system.
