    A.描述：M109A6圣骑士是M109自propelled榴弹炮的产品改进计划（PIP），重约64,000磅。圣骑士提供了榴弹炮响应，生存能力，可靠性，可用性和可维护性（RAM）的升级。M109A6是装有M185 155毫米改装大炮的装甲，完全跟踪的榴弹炮，并带有修改后的M178枪架，并带有遥控电源行驶锁。该系统结合了许多M109帮助改进，包括改进的Halon灭火系统，发动机诊断，通风的面部和升级的电气系统。圣骑士与凯夫拉尔衬里的新炮塔结合在一起，并带有宽宽度，并带有装甲屏蔽，可改善推动电荷保护。以下行项目是该系统的组件：K93373，Intercom System VIC-I。有关非线组件项目的列表，请参见块H。B.能力：M109A6圣丁蛋白结合了最先进的技术，以增强系统的生存能力，响应能力，终端有效性，范围，射击速率，热容量和RAM。它的能力快速发射和射击可以使其更频繁地移动，从而使反击的敏感性大大降低。（1）消防控制。 THE ON-BOARD AUTOMATIC FIRE CONTROL SYSTEM WILL BE FULLY AUTOMATED. IT WILL COMPUTE THE FIRE MISSIONS AND LAY THE GUN AT PROPER ELEVATION AND DEFLECTION. IT WILL PROVIDE POSITION LOCATION AND AZIMUTH REFERENCE, ON BOARD BALLISTIC SOLUTIONS OF FIRE MISSIONS, AND COMPUTER CONTROLLED GUN-DRIVE SERVOS WITH MANUAL BACKUP. THESE IMPROVEMENTS WILL PERMIT RAPID EMPLACEMENT/ DISPLACEMENT TACTICS AND DISPERSED POSITIONING FOR SEMI-AUTONOMOUS OPERATIONS WITH SEPARATION DISTANCES OF UP TO 1KM. THE EMPLACED PALADIN WILL BE CAPABLE OF FIRING WITHIN 30 SECONDS. (2) ARMAMENT AND AMMUNITION. ALL CURRENT, AS WELL AS DEVELOPMENTAL, U.S. CONVENTIONAL 155MM ARTILLERY PROJECTILES WILL BE SYSTEM COMPATIBLE. IT IS CAPABLE OF TRANSPORTING 39 ROUNDS ON BOARD (37 CONVENTIONAL AND 2 OVERSIZED PROJECTILES, E.G., COPPERHEAD). THE COMBINATION OF CANNON/BREACH PROPELLING CHARGE, AND PROJECTILE WILL PERMIT AN UNASSISTED MAXIMUM RANGE OF 22 KM AND AN ASSISTED MAXIMUM RANGE OF APPROXIMATELY 30 KM. (3) COMMAND, CONTROL AND COMMUNICATIONS. DIGITAL AND VOICE COMMUNICATIONS, USING CURRENT SYSTEMS AND THE SINGLE CHANNEL GROUND/ AIRBORNE RADIO SYSTEM (SINCGARS), WILL ENABLE THE USE OF AUTONOMOUS ON-BOARD TECHNICAL FIRE CONTROL. IT WILL ALSO PERMIT FIRE MISSIONS TO BE EXECUTED BY ANY COMBINATION OF ARTILLERY FROM ONE GUN TO MULTIPLE BATTALIONS. TACTICAL AND TECHNICAL FIRE CONTROL WILL BE MAINTAINED THROUGH INTERFRCE WITH THE BATTERY COMPUTER SYSTEM (BCS), TACTICAL FIRE DIRECTION SYSTEM (TACFIRE), AND, WHEN FIELDED, ADVANCED FIELD ARTILLERY TACTICAL DATA SYSTEM (AFATDS). COMMUNICA- TIONS WILL BE SECURE. (4) BUILT-IN TEST EQUIPMENT (BITE), BOTH DIAGNOSTIC AND PROGNOSTIC, WILL BE USED. THE CREW WILL HAVE BENEFIT OF AN IMPROVED NBC PROTECTIVE SYSTEM AND MICRO-CLIMATIC COOLING SYSTEM WHICH WILL PROVIDE FILTERED AIR TO A FACE-PIECE AND VEST. PASSIVE NIGHT VISION DEVICES FOR THE DRIVER WILL FACILITATE MOVEMENT AND ENHANCE SURVIVABILITY. C. EMPLOYMENT: THE M109A6 PALADIN WILL NORMALLY BE LOCATED IN FIRING PLATOON AREAS UNDER THE CONTROL OF THE PLATOON FDC AND WITH SUPPORT CENTRALIZED IN A BATTERY SUPPORT AREA. PAIRED HOWITZERS WILL OPERATE IN 1KM DIAMETER BATTLE POSITIONS. INDIVIDUAL HOWITZERS MAY OPERATE IN INDIVIDUAL BATTLE POSITIONS. D. BASIS OF ISSUE: ONE-FOR-ONE REPLACEMENT FOR LIN K57667 HOWITZER MEDIUM SELF PROPELLED: 155MM (M109 A2-5) IN FIRING BATTERIES ORGANIZED FOR PLATOON OPERATIONS ONLY. E. POWER REQUIREMENTS: NA. F. TRANSPORTATION REQUIREMENTS: THE M109A6 PALADIN WILL BE TRANSPORTABLE BY ROAD, RAIL, SEA OR AIR (C5A) AND WILL MEET EUROPEAN RAIL, BRIDGE AND TUNNEL RESTRICTIONS. G. PERSONNEL/MAINTENANCE IMPACTS: (1) OPERATOR(S): (A) CREW SIZE/MOS: THE FOLLOWING INDIVIDUALS COMPRISE THE HOWITZER SECTION/CREW IN SUPPORT OF THE PALADIN AND AMMUNITION RESUPPLY VEHICLE: 1 - E6, 13B, HOWITZER SECTION CHIEF 1 - E5, 13B, GUNNER 1 - E5, 13B, AMMUNITION TEAM CHIEF 1 - E4, 13B, ASST GUNNER 1 - E4, 13B, SP HOWITZER DRIVER 1 - E4, 13B, AMMO VEHICLE DRIVER 3 - E3, 13B, CANNONEER (B) TRAINING REQUIREMENTS: MOS RESIDENT TRAINING IMPACT IS AS FOLLOWS: MOS 13B, 44B, 44E, 45B 45D, 45K, 45G, 63H, 63G, 63J (2) MAINTAINERS: (A) UNIT LEVEL: MOS'S 31U, 35Y, 45D, 52C, 63B, 63D, 63J, 63Y, & 92Y.
