Recently released data by SIPRI has confirmed that 36 (out of 90 ordered) Norinco SH-1 155mm SP howitzers have been delivered to Pakistan in 2013 and 2014.
Being bankrupt, the Porks must have got this crap free or from a discount rummage sale - buy two and get one free, like the 50 JF-17 Blunders they got at throw away prices recently from their deeper than the ocean friends. Lol!appreciate pakis effort to acquire things from begging:thumb::thumb:
Spot on! But being mobile self propelled artillery, they most likely would be used in desert terrain in support of mechanized formations, though tracked platforms would have been more suitable.Can they be deployed on the LOC in Kashmir? I'd imagine that the terrain is not suitable and they will be more of a factor on the International Border in other states.
Who are these "We already" ? ... "Pakistanis" or "Bangladeshis" or "Bangladeshis who still not accepted the nation state" ?Re: Artillery: Pakistan takes delivery of 36 SH-1 self-propelled howit
Pakistanis have been slow. We already have the Serbian NORA B-52 K1 SPH. Also Chinese PLZ-45 SP guns.
