Army s long-range cannon gets direct hit on target 43 miles away

Hermitage Capital Management CEO Bill Browder discusses the SolarWinds cyberattack against U.S. agencies and how a Biden administration can handle Russia. The Army s Extended Range Cannon Artillery (ERCA) system successfully hit a target 43 miles away, or 70 kilometers, during a test at Yuma Proving Ground in Arizona on Saturday. The successful test comes as the U.S. Army has been looking to close the field artillery gap against military adversaries like Russia. The ERCA cannon uses an M109A7 Paladin Integrated Management (PIM) howitzer chassis and replaces a 39-caliber gun tube with a 58-caliber, 30-foot one. The system allows the Army to dramatically boost artillery ranges using Excalibur munitions made by Ratheon in combination with an XM1113 using supercharged propellant.
