Precision Guidance Kit (PGK)

Northrop Grumman’s Precision Guidance Kit (PGK) transforms existing 155mm high explosive artillery projectiles into GPS - guided precision weapons. PGK is an affordable solution to rapidly achieve mission success for field artillery units supporting the maneuver force.

i need this for back to school ,

You need this for when you go back to school? Why because your a freak that wants to kill innocent people?

For school…an artillery barrage is a bit excessive, don’t you think?

You and I both, I’ll see you at the corporate meetings one day.

You have to admit , that's clever

[@ironwolfF1]

Was wondering when somebody was going to make a guidance kit to cheapen the cost of an Archer-style round.
Next to the proximity fuse... _THIS_ is the 'next big thing'.

[@Galil-aces]

Doesn’t have a lot of the benefits of the Excalibur or even the SMArt but if your only goal is to hit targets accurately when their isn’t much risk of jamming or if you don’t need direct top attack or air burst but I’m sure this comes with airburst since it is a fuse they would just need to integrate a adjustable proximity fuse

These were developed in Minnesota, I believe they finished R&D last year.

[@thevulcan2011]

Beside GPS guidance, they should have a kit that seeking for radio emission to counter EW system

[@jhonfloibelmiculob6581]

Curious question: how will PGK stir it, if the is rotating?

[@ALTINSEA1]

there is 2 fins to spin to power and 2 fins to steer. to correct flights path the fuze head will stop spinning to steer and when it corrected it will go back to spin again.
it stop and spin again like view dozens time per second to keep it right on direction to target.

i dont uinderstand how the small tip of thaty is supposed to guide the entire shell though?

[@raptor2265]

It’s not meant to make wide, sweeping turns; all it needs to do is fine-tune the trajectory by a few degrees at most, which those canards are more than capable of doing.

M982 Excalibur is the best 😉

[@StreuB1]

You're missing the point. This is to convert preexisting stockpiles of 155mm "dumb" artillery projectiles into smart projectiles. Excalibur is indeed better, by far. It was also designed from the ground up for its role. You cannot compare this device to the Excalibur round, they are two completely different things. They are not competitors, they augment each other.
As well, Excalibur is around $60-$70k per round. A standard 155mm HE artillery projectile (no fuse) costs around $300-$400. This fuse will likely cost a few grand. So you have 30m CEP for less than $5k compared to 5m CEP for up to 15 times that amount.
Excalibur is for point targets. Normal artillery is for area bombardment. This would be a response to the need for confined area bombardment, reduced collateral, artillery support in semi-congested areas, near-point targets that do not warrant the cost and precision of Excalibur.

[@multinaute]

I think the purpose of the system is so that dumb rounds that follow can land in a more precise fashion.

[@m1k4c]

@@trader2137 Yep, I figure who ever "we" is, is interested in getting money and statistics to further improve. I wouldn't be surprised if it really ended up in Russian hands, but not the way you think.
Hey, during the Bosnian war, sometime down the middle, 1993/94, Serbs held about 70% of territory and the fiercest battles were fought between Croats and Muslims. Serbs were the ones who not only robbed the Yu Peoples Army, but were also GIVEN much of the equipment, anyway - much better armed than the other two.
So, for about 1 year, they were taking $$$ from Croats to shell Muslims, then take $$$ from Muslims to shell Croats. Some Croatian guy told an anecdote how he managed to smuggle some ~50.000$ to the Serbs, so he's on the radio with this Serbian officer, so they agree on everything, and suddenly one more salvo over the Croats: "Hey, WTF, What's this now?" - "That one's on the house!" ;D
Don't underestimate power of $$$. Ukrainians are denying it, but the better part of everything DPK and LPK used before 2022 was Ukrainian. Military vehicles bought from corrupt Ukrainians for the value of 1-3 tires on that vehicle. Every war creates new "elites" for decades to come, out of everything worst society has to offer. That's also human and unavoidable. You noticed how many times the Westerners demanded better control of where the weapons and humanitarian aid was going. So.. you get it, right?
