An American 155mm turreted self-propelled howitzer, the M109 saw its combat debut during the Vietnam war. The M109 family is still the most common Western indirect-fire support weapon in service. With a crew of four, the long barrelled version (starting with the A1 version) has a maximum range of 18,100 meters. Starting in 1984/85, Belgium received 167 M109A2 replacing his early M109 (short barrel) and ageing M108.
The two first models presented here are the basic wargaming models from S&S. At the time they had the advantage of existing and of not being too expensive. With a little work and a bit of staging, they play their role perfectly on the gaming table. (made 2014)
