Goober,
Some interesting points. Thank you very much for them. Could you expand on the reason why you cannot fire without knowing the temperature of the tube?
In the really bad, old days when the school was in Shilo, we found the winterization kit that came with the original M109s was a joke. We had concerns, which I think turned out to be unfounded, on the effect of a Manitoba winter on the hydaulics, etc and the various bits and pieces filled with nitrogen.
What form with the firing on 2 December take. Will this be a confirmatory round from each gun fired with a long lanyard to test the gun? After that will some fire missions be engaged?
