This is the most recent artillery news that I could find. It's from Janes Defence.

China North Industries Corporation (NORINCO) has completed the development of a new 122 mm full-tracked self-propelled howitzer (SPH) called the SH3, which is now being offered on the export market.

The artillery system is based on a new full-tracked chassis, with the driver seated front left, to the right of a diesel powerpack, leaving the remainder of the chassis clear for the fighting compartment. Suspension is of the torsion bar type with six dual-rubber-tyre road wheels, drive sprocket at the front, idler at the rear and track return rollers.

At the rear of the chassis the fully enclosed turret is armed with a 122 mm ordnance fitted with a fume extractor and muzzle brake. The turret traverses a full 360 degrees, with weapon elevation from -3 to +70 degrees. This fires standard 122 mm D-30 separate loading (projectile and charge) ammunition.

The standard 122 mm high-explosive (HE) projectile has a maximum range of 17,000 m; other natures include smoke and illuminating rounds.

NORINCO is now marketing a new family of 122 mm separate loading ammunition, which also includes an HE base bleed (BB) rocket-assist projectile Type BEE2, HE hollow base (HB) and HE BB projectile. Maximum ranges are 27,000 m, 18,000 m and 22,000 m respectively.

I've had severe problems getting this site to accept text from me lately.  The workarounds are hardly worth the trouble.  Even before this difficulty emerged several other severely anoying problems were chronic.  Slow, buggy, to many cookies,  spam following each visit.  The sysop is not on top of things here.  Thats reflected in the simple minded fluff the sysop routinely clutters the pages with and  a lack of attention to trolls, flame wars, and spam  inserted in the discussion threads.  The page format is more taxing that ususall on my eyes & it fatigue or pain come much sooner on this site than most others.  Not worth my time to read or post here.

You have been noticable by your absence!!!!  Its a shame that Sysop doesnt seem to be as on the ball as they should regarding members concerns with the buggyness of this site.
