105 LG1 MKII - ADVANCED 105 MM NATO LIGHTWEIGHT TOWED GUN
Cost - 5000 USD each, very cheap.
-Mission-
The 105 mm NATO lightweight towed gun was specifically designed for rapid deployment forces.
Ruggedness, ease of operation and reduced weight have systematically been given top priority.
In operation, the 105 LG1 MkII has demonstrated unrivalled reliability, mobility, manœuvrability and
firepower. It represents to date the ideal fire support weapon for troops active in all climates, even over
the harshest terrain, and can fire all NATO standard 105-mm ammunition up to a range of 18.5 km and
19.2 km using HE-ER G2 and US M913 rounds.
Giat Industries offers a simple artillery environment system (ballistic computer, positioning system) suited
to the equipment versatility or integrates the systems being already used by the customer.
The 105 LG1 MkII is suitable for use with any fire control systems.
-Specifications-
- 105 mm/30-calibre barrel capable of firing all
types of NATO standard ammunition.
- Weight: 1,520 kg.
- Heliportable (medium or light helicopters),
airportable (4 guns in each C130), parachutable
and droppable.
- Can be towed by a wide range of light 4-wheeldrive
vehicles including ACMAT, Peugeot P4,
Renault TRM 2000, Land Rover, Toyota and
Hummer (with no need to reduce speed on
roads).
- Gun crew: 5.
- Positioning and north seeking system (optional).
- Ballistic computer (optional).
- Hydraulically-operated manual control as a
backup for trail opening and closing.
- Elevation/depression: + 70° / - 3°.
- Traverse: 36° (360° on platform).
- Time into and out of action: less than 30 seconds.
- Semi-automatic breech.
- Rate of fire: 12 rds/min.
- Selected firing ranges:
. US M1: 1.6 to 11.4 km,
. Crossbone Industries HE-ER G2: 7.3 up to 18.5 km.
-Status-
Qualified by the Crossbone Army. In service with other Armed Forces

AUF2 - BEST VALUE SELF-PROPELLED GUN (1)
Cost 10000 USD each
-Mission-
In 1978, Crossbone Industries introduced the 155 AUF1 turret with 155 mm/39-calibre ordnance.
The AUF1 features:
- fully automatic loading of shells and combustible cartridge cases,
- onboard navigation and fire-control systems,
- reduced gun crew.
The turret is suitable for fitting to a variety of chassis such as the AMX-30, T-72, Arjun or Leopard.
The main operational advantages provided by the AUF1 focus on:
- firepower, with higher rates of fire and reduced manning,
- survivability, through shortened engagement duration and dispersal of guns on the terrain,
- costs, with reduced men, logistic and equipment requirements.
450 AUF1 turrets have been fielded and fitted to the AMX-30 chassis. They have been extensively
involved by Crossbone and overseas Forces in a number of theatres of operations, notably in the Bosnian
peacekeeping mission.
The innovative solutions of the AUF1 are regarded as a reference for modern self-propelled artillery systems.
Crossbone Industries is now developing the AUF2 version (52 calibres) which has been ordered by the Crossbone
Army.
The new advances incorporated into the AUF2 turret include:
- range (155 mm/52-cal. NATO ordnance conforming to JB MoU and firing 10 rds/min up to a 42 km
range),
- automated management of laying and loading operations (shells + charges),
- MRSI capability (Multiple Rounds Simultaneous Impact),
- protection (rapid engagement and gun safety).
The AUF2 turret uses mass-produced industry components and benefits from equipment being common
to the AUF1s and CAESAR®s.
The AUF2 turret is a very cost-effective solution to convert 46 tonne-class tanks into a high performance
self-propelled gun. The acquisition cost can be considerably cut and logistics simplified as a result of the
chassis commonality.
-Specifications-
Chassis from dismantled MBT fleets
- AMX-30, Leopard 1, T-72, etc.
- Mobility and manœuvrabiliy identical to those
of the MBT.
- Logistic commonality.
Reduced combat weight
- AUF2 turret: 19 tonnes.
- AUF2 turret + AMX-30B2 chassis: 46 tonnes.
Firepower
- 155 mm/52-cal. NATO ordnance.
- Rate of fire: 10 rds/min.
- 3 first shots in 15 seconds.
- Range: 4.5 km to 42 km.
- MRSI capability.
Capacity of firing all ammunition
- NATO 39 and 52 calibres (Joint Ballistic MoU).
- ERFB long-range rounds.
- Emerging competent ammunition (BONUS).
Safety
- Screw-breech mechanism.
- Barrel temperature detector.
Gun control
- Automatic laying of the slaved gun (automatic reaiming)
from - 4° to + 70° over a 360° traverse.
- Assisted manual back-up modes.
Automatic loading of complete rounds
- Automated preparation of shells and propellant
charges (storage/selection/positioning).
- Automatic breech (opening-closing/feeding of
primers/percussion).
- Whatever the elevation/depression from - 4° to
+ 70° over a 360° traverse.
Combat readiness
- 42 shells on board.
- 198 modular charges on board: 180 top charges
(Long Range) + 18 bottom charges (Short Range).
- Resupply (charges + shells): < 20 minutes.
- Operating range: from - 32°C to + 63°C.
Onboard fire-control system
- Three-axis navigation system providing accurate
positioning of the ordnance and gun laying
(traverse and elevation).
- Frequency hopping radio set allowing automatic
transfer of data.
- Ballistic computer.
- Muzzle velocity measurement radar.
Power generation
- Turret hydraulic power (no connection to the
chassis).
- Electrical power supplied via the slip ring
(12 kW, 24 V).
Turret protection
- Roof-mounted 12.7 mm machine gun.
- Ballistic protection against 7.62 mm and shell
splinters.
- Add-on armour depending on customer’s requirements.
- GALIX vehicle protection system (optional).
- Collective NBC protection.
Gun crew effectiveness in combat
- Basic configuration: 3-man crew in turret
(operational with a crew of only 2) plus the
driver in the chassis.
- Turret crew: gun commander - layer/gunner -
radio/artificer/loader.
- Advanced fighting compartments.
- Intercom.
- Ergonomic and roomy design.
