G5
155mm Towed Howitzer
The
G5 is a proven, reliable and accurate 155mm long-range gun with
an auxiliary power unit. The auxiliary power-unit provides hydraulic
power for easy and rapid deployment, as well as giving the gun a
self-propelled capability for tactical movement. The G5 system has
been developed for modern warfare. Intensive testing under all possible
conditions, as well as continuous feedback from military operations
to the design engineers, have resulted in a gun that is not only
immensely practical, but also extremely reliable and user-friendly.

and action of mechanised infantry and armoured divisions. No transporters
