The M03 NORA K-I is a 155mm truck mounted artillery system designed and developed by the Serbian Defence Company YugoImport. This is the third generation of NORA series wheeled self-propelled howitzer. The latest technology in design and manufacture were applied in designing of the third generation of NORA, which resulted in multiple savings in time as well as in the increased accuracy. The weapon is modular, which provides for the delivery of a number of different options depending on the user’s choice. The third generation NORA incorporates a number of new technical solutions such as complete armor protection of all sides of the vehicle which is most notable on the outside, and which has changed general outside appearance of the system. This latest modernized version of NORA series howitzer decreased the number of crew members, and created conditions in which not a single crew member need to leave the cabin during normal weapon operation. The M03 NORA K-I can be ready to fire the first round in less than 60 sec and leave its firing position in the same time. Rapid positioning of fire position and automatic gun orientation to the main direction, as well as achieved precision in determination of own position, classify the third generation NORA among the best weapons in its category. The accomplished automatic reception and carrying out of fire control command (signal) include automatic transmission and undertaking of given firing elements, gun loading, gun orientation on elevation and traverse, and firing following the given command. Classical sighting devices and GRS units have been retained as back-up equipment for classical operational procedure. |
