Twice better than PZH and Archer: How many caesar lost the Armed Forces and why so little is the report

To spread: France has explored the work of CAESAR's self -propelled artillery installations in Ukraine and found that less than other guns that the Ukrainian army have. The reason for such minor losses is in the features of the structure. In addition, Caesar retained twice as much combat readiness as PZH 2000 and Archer. The work of the French Caesar in the Armed Forces was told on the portal Defense Express.

Defense Express drew attention to the report written by the French Parliament and Armed Forces. The report is called "Artillery in the key of a new strategic context", written after 17 hearings and five trips to Ukraine and Poland. The main purpose of the study is to be the quality of contemporary artillery of France and whether it is ready for the test of modern war. Among other things, the report provides data on the number of CaSar SAU lost during hostilities in Ukraine is 10%.

The exact amount is not indicated, but the DE estimated losses. Considering that at the end of 2024 the Armed Forces received 78 installations from France, the losses - about 7 units, the article is said. The authors of the report noted that the loss of Caesar-2-3 times less than for other similar systems (names not specified).

There is also an explanation of why this article is so "living": the French also appreciated the municipality of the three models of the SAU after five months of active work on the front: it turned out that Caesar prevails doubles: on the portal they said that such a result was due to "simplest design and mechanization". Another question is the degree of wear of the barrel. In the conditions of the Russo-Ukrainian War, the SAU is firing at the maximum range.

At the same time, according to the French, the gun makes an average of 60-90 shots, and a maximum of 150. Therefore, the trunks are more likely to fail and require replacement: the amount of replacement in the article is not specified. Defense Express wrote that the French industry is not coping with the pace of release of new trunks that would replace worn out. In addition, the factories were unable to increase the SAU, which are produced on a monthly basis. - It is 12 pcs.

(The technological cycle was reduced from 30 to 15 months), the article is said. Let us remind you that the production of Bogdan SAU-20-30 pcs. per month. The artillery report in the key of a new strategic context, which was written on DE, consists of two large -scale sections. You can see the full text on the French Parliament portal or listen to YouTube. It should be noted that in December 2023, the Ukrainian military spoke about the shortcomings they see at the Caesar SAU.
