The M-109 self-propelled artillery gun was developed on the basis of a specific request from the US Army: to have a heavy howitzer with great mobility in all types of terrain that could replace the dated M-44. The first M-109s entered service in the early 1960s and immediately proved the validity of the design. The M-109 was also constantly improved to bring it up to date with evolving operational requirements. The 155 mm main armament was also improved with the adoption, starting with the A1 version, of the M185 long-barrelled cannon characterised by a significantly increased range. The subsequent A2 version incorporated further improvements in weapon, aiming, ammunition and target acquisition systems. It was produced in large numbers and equipped the US armed forces and the main Allied countries of the N.A.T.O.
