Abstract
This research paper is devoted to the prospects of development of 155 mm caliber projectiles. The projectiles of this caliber are important elements of artillery armament used in many countries, particularly in NATO countries. The paper reviews the current state of the art of 155 mm projectiles, technological innovations to improve these projectiles, challenges and limitations, development prospects and conclusion. A general overview of 155 mm caliber projectiles, their main characteristics and uses is provided. Technological innovations used to improve the projectiles, in particular new materials and control systems, are proposed. The challenges and limitations faced by 155 mm caliber projectiles are discussed in detail. This includes discussion of projectile size and weight, firing accuracy, cost and availability, air defense, and ethical aspects of weapon use. Prospects for the development of 155 mm caliber projectiles are presented. New technologies and innovations that can improve their effectiveness, maneuverability, and ability to counter the enemy are discussed. In particular, the use of automated control systems, improved guidance and navigation systems, and the use of new materials are explored. A conclusion is provided that summarizes the results of the study and draws conclusions regarding the future development of 155 mm caliber projectiles. It is noted that an integrated approach and innovative solutions are needed to overcome the challenges and limitations and to ensure the availability and effectiveness of these projectiles in the modern combat environment.
This paper aims to contribute to the understanding of the future prospects of 155 mm caliber projectiles and to provide a basis for further research and development in this area.
