Max ranges of MLRS, M-109, Smerch and artillarys

Does anyone know the max effective range of a MLRS, M-109, Smerch and/or artillarys units? Could you please specify that in a table laout?

It seems that a MLRS has a range of about 15km while artillary unit M-109 has a 20km range which is much lower than the G6 gun developed in South Africa http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/row/g6.htm

Anu more info about max ranges in lo-mac whill be welcomed.

Thanks, to you quote direct form that ubi forum.

 

2) How far away from the target were the guns/rockets? I'm pretty sure they have a minimum range (dont know what though) as well as maximum range.

Smersh 70km

Grad 20km

SAU Gvodzika 15nm

SAU Berg 18nm

SAU Msta 15nm

SAU Akatsia 15nm

MLRS 31km

M-109 15nm

 

Firing rates:

Gvozdika - 6 rnds per min

Akatsia - 4 rnds per min

Msta - 8 rnds per min

Bereg - 10 rnds per min

Nona - 8 rnds per min

 

Beware - Nona has really short max range I think less than 6km.

 

As long as they have passed an attack waypoint (with target set up etc. etc) they will fire on the move, so if you want you could put them on a road say 10 km away moving slowly toward the target co-ords. Or off-road so yo can see the dust of them moving to make even easier to spot them. NOTE that Smersh, Grad, MLRS will not fire on the move, they will only fire when halted. I have been unable to make them fire then move again, but they will move to a position then fire.

 

So to sum up all that this thread seems to have deduced, if you want some arty to bombard a town/airfield to add colour to a mission,

1) target a co-ord, so arty keep firing. If you target a building, once destroyed then the arty stops firing.

2) if your arty all in one group, then have same number of targets to ensure each arty in the group has a target to fire at.

3) if you mix the arty types (bereg, msta, nona, etc) then they fire at different rates and looks nicer Smile

 

Thanks, this was the information which i needed :).

Range in 155s is dependent on Ammunition and barrel calibre. Its 20km+ and there are many ammunition types that can be used.
