Habro este hilo, para saber cual es vuestra opinion sobre el estado de la artilleria ATP en el ET.
Desde mi punto de vista los 90 pocos M-109A5 (version descafeinada del A6 Paladin americano) no estan a la altura de las mejores piezas ATP actuales, y pienso que se deberia ir pensando o en sustituirles o en complementarlos con algo mejor.
Mi favorito es el Pzh-2000 aleman, que para mi gusto es la pieza, mas moderna y capaz del mercado (con el permiso del G-6 sudafricano), pero desde luego no es el unico modelo interesante ne servicio en el mundo.
