Self-Propelled Howitzer Components:
Chassis: The mobile platform that houses the gun and crew, providing mobility and protection.
Gun: The large-caliber artillery piece for firing shells at various targets.
Fire Control System: Includes electronics and targeting systems to ensure precision.
Suspension and Track System: Provides movement over rough terrain.
Powertrain: Includes the engine and transmission for mobility.
Naval Gun Components:
Gun Barrel: The large-caliber barrel for firing shells.
Mounting and Elevation Mechanism: Allows for aiming and adjusting the gun's elevation and rotation.
Fire Control System: Coordinates the targeting, firing, and tracking functions.
Loading Mechanism: Automatic or manual systems to load ammunition into the gun.
Power Supply: Provides electrical power to the gun and associated systems.
In essence, these components work together to ensure the effective use of artillery on land (in self-propelled howitzers) and at sea (in naval guns).
