Britain buys fresh artillery. German Victory

This decision marks the end of the analytical phase of the Mobile Fires Platform, which aimed to identify the successor of the caterpillar cannonohabic AS90. The British Army presently has respective twelve copies of the latter, and depending on the origin their fleet counts from 50 to 80 pieces. The primary problem of AS90 is the major difficulties of the main user in obtaining spare parts, resulting in the cannibalization of parts of wagons to keep the others in service. The last of 179 AS90 copies left Vickers' mill in Barrow-in-Furness in 1995.
