As a cadet, I did my troop leaderhip training with an M109 Howitzer (on which the K9 is based) battery in West Germany. I was amazed at how precise they, and FA in general can be. Even without FO’s, I’d be willing to bet the static Nork positions have been so thoroughly mapped by satellite and recon flights that there’s no reason to doubt the claims the ROKs are making for the results of their counterbattery fire.
I have a question for the towed 155 guys, I can’t remember how long it took us to get out the first round in a quick fire, from the time we braked to the time the lanyard was pulled, it seems like it was so quick that I hesitate to tell it to people unless I am sure that I remember it correctly.
If anyone remembers how quick it could get, please ping me with the figure.
