French President Emmanuel Macron on Friday said in an interview to Ouest-France that the country will send 155mm Caesar self-propelled artillery systems to Ukraine.
Macron said this in an interview with the outlet,
"We are delivering significant equipment, from Milan to Caesar. I think we have to continue on this route. Always with the red line that we will not become parties to the conflict”
As per the French newspaper Ouest-France, Ukraine will receive 12 self-propelled CAESAR howitzers, which will be taken from the reserves of the French army.
In this video Defense Updates analyzes how French CAESAR howitzers could be instrumental in thwarting Russian forces?

The Caesar artillery system is no joke. It’s 155mm/52 howitzer has a range of up to 42km (standard ammunition), up to 50km (rocked assisted ammunition) and up to 60km (new ammunition jointly developed by NEXTER BAE Sweden). That out-ranged all artillery system fielded by Russian forces like 2S1, 2S3, 2S7, 2S9, 2S19 and 2S34 whist being highly mobile and easy to deploy.
Yeah,they send two, meanwhile every day Europe sends almost a billion dollars to Russia ,they are worse than nothing, traitors.
I’d like to see MIG-29 added to the equation nonetheless.
60km range is crazy. give it a bit more, so it can strike moscow, so they can learn how it feels.
Ukraine needs more drones similar to the Bayraktar to attack the enemy remotely in order to minimize human military losses…
A bayraktar drone could destroy a howitzer like this easily…. only to give a comparison of what old technology is competing towards state of the art military equipment.
@@richardkammerer2814 USA just sent mig 29 aircraft baught from Moldova this week.
Caesar would have been sweet to use on that 40 km convoy.
Slava Ukraini.
Tradition of french army is to have great artillery.
Yeap Napoléon was an artillery officer.

@@alexandrelarsac9115 and Napolean said: "another battle won thanks to my 2 Norman regiments"
Ukrainian army have strongly request long range artillery. This is a good answer with something already validate in some battle.

vive goforsteve ! and the Normandy 😉
This is real! Thank you France 🇫🇷 for helping Ukraine 🇺🇦 to achieve Victory over Russia.
Russian airstrikes will destroy this artillery
If the Russians prevail, it will be at a terrible price to them. Better to declare victory and withdraw.
@AJ- Russia’s military is pretty much proven to be as effective as Andorra’s. Russian ‘Air Force’ has been pretty much grounded, while its army will soon rely on T-34’s…
@@mrjerzheel bla..bla...they can not destroy now ukraine artillery...russian air force are basically untrained. They were flying less than 10 hours a month before.
France send also 100 Mistral anti-aircraft (MANPADS)missiles. Norway also did send the same number, but these were from their Navy, so probably less mobile.
Good to know : Caesar is validated to use Excalibur ( us/nato ) guided shell, Bonus (swedish-french) guided shell, and soon Katana.
The three give him 50+ km range and between 5m / 10cm precision.
It is not needed to defeat Russia all equipment you send to Ukraine is at risk of loss or being captured and copied.
The Ukrainians are winning using (mostly) cold war era Soviet tech or stuff they built themselves.Ukrainian weapons are getting little if any credit while systems like the Stugna ATGW are steller performers.
They will use these to strike Target's within Russia
@@rolandxor179 not needed ? Zelensky and the Ukrainian Army asked for it.
They know way more than you , that's for sure
BONUS shells can take 2 tanks with one shot.
@@junkookbts1273 Need and want is two different things.
I'm sure there is no limit to what he wants. It also serves a propaganda function. But he will get only what the West think he needs nothing more nothing less.
maintaining this wide variety of materiel is going to be a logistical pain in the ass. hope there is a support function in these aid packages
NATO standard ammo, but I agree with your point.
Beau of the fifth column has an interesting take on this.
Basically as long as they can use it and do minimal upkeep any depot level repair can be done across the boarder by French techs.
Fortunately the low number of fielded units will make logistics easier. Most likely, certain systems will be allocates to specific Ukrainian regiments.
Fully Nato standard, and especially US ammo, including guided ammo.
A lot of the stuff being sent is old Soviet Union gear. Quite honestly as long as the US can give the defenders a ton of battlefield info and find a way to feed it to the gear, it can make any weapons platform a headache for Russian peacekeeping. I'll say this, the Ukrainians are fighting hard. Interesting in modern conventional warfare, the pen or 1's and 0's are mightier than the sword.
At this point Russia must feel like a punching bag. It getting hit with all kinds of weapons only maybe seen in books or on the internet.
They aren’t getting punched hard enough. Some NATO countries still have 300-500 T-72 tanks in storage they could give Ukraine. The US has almost 1000 M109 sealed propelled Howitzers. They should give the Ukrainians 100 of those too as they are more flexible and mobile than the M777 towed howitzer
The towed howitzers are portable by helicopter and truck.
@@markelder9058 The point is surely that the M109 at 27.5 tons is a lot less easy to ship than the M777 being supplied - a weapon specifically designed to be air and helicopter portable
Wait until the Ukrainian insurgency spills into Russia later on lol
I hope Russia responds to these foreign weapons with a supersonic or hypersonic strike to make sure they barley get used by Ukraine.
As someone who is a fan of the old Asterix comics its really funny for me that France has a weapon system called Caesar
CAESAR (CAmion Équipé d'un Système d'ARtillerie; French: Truck equipped with an artillery system) 😉
To complete your statements, the Americans are interested in this gun.. however, they are trying to produce an equivalent.. they called it "BRUTUS" the one who in ancient Rome assassinated "CESAR" ...
@@nzfmecom521 Yeah,even a Lybian technical with ZPU can beat this BRUTUS shit
@@alexandrelarsac9115 It's funny how the english exact translation of CAESAR would be TEARS: Truck Equipped with an ARtillery System
Good news. The US has given a total of 90 X M777 howitzers so far.
Yes,90 M777 with rounds including rocket assisted smart munitions is a huge game changer,Zelensky said he is finally receiving the weapons he needs. Bit not from France or Germany who continue to send more money to Putin than the US can send to Zellebsky. French are pathetic. Always surrendering always collaborating. If they'd sent only 6 they'd give the number systems mean two.
@@paulbedichek2679 what are you talking about Schoolboy ? The French Caesar are far more efficients that us crappy M777. US can’t even fight against guys wearing pyjamas in Afghanistan . The only war that US won alone is the civil war against themeselves . Go back to Tik Tok schoolboy.
@@paulbedichek2679
Germany negotiated a swap deal with Slovenia.
Slovenia is going to send M-84 tanks (a version of the T-72) to Ukraine, in exchange Slovenia will receive German weapons as a replacement for the tanks.
Who cares Crappy US artillery in Euope?
Us can’t even fight against guys wearing pyjamas in syria or afghanistan
Caesar will have negotiations with the Russians. Hope they listen to to his whispering of peace and go home Russia.
Slava Ukraini
sagement dit l'ami !
Presently due to the weather conditions the Russians for the next few weeks will be locked to roads due to the soft ground. This unit is a shoot and scoot weapon which is just what Ukraine needs.
Exactly it can set up fire and relocate in 3-4 mins well before russian forces can launch a counterstrike
And I wouldn’t bet against the Ukrainian non-coms to exploit this advantage.
Hit them hard, very hard Ukrainian while you have the advantage!
@@richardkammerer2814 that is the difference with Russia and Ukraine, Russia still employs Napoleonic military doctrine, while Ukraine employs a fluid military dictrine. One developed over 200 years past, and it worked, somewhat, then. Then WWII both Soviets and Germany employed portions if this doctrine with, follow orders without question "You DO AS TOLD PERIOD". Ukraine adopted a more modern concept of exploiting a situation down to the squad level which makes it difficult for the enemy with hit and run tactics, but for the area commander it can be quite difficult to manage the field of battle. Now quite often the Ukraine troops can read the Russian moves like a book and devise deadly traps. But if the Russians get a chance with a dry ground open field situation they will try and roll over the Ukrainians with mass formations. However I am putting money on Ukraine non-coms to make this mass formation attack quite expensive in manpower and equipment for the Russians.
Russia will not like Special Ogre Operations.
Ukraine is now a laboratory for how to coordinate a huge number of disparate artillery systems including Switchblade 600s and Phoenix Ghosts.
And using drone-assist for all of it.
Should be interesting, Ogre's against Orc's
Bullsh!t
Ukraine getting heavy metal puts a smile on my face
ahh yes, trying to network equipment from dozens of countries with multiple language barriers spanning 70 years and of questionable maintainence. Operated by mostly drafted conscripts who can only read one language and never set eyes on most of these hardware until last week.
This sounds like a perfect disaster waiting to happen.
Ukraine getting the heavy metal puts a smile on my face
The problem is that they are not enough. Ukrain needs about 250-300 of these howitzers, more ammunition, mechanics support and logistics support.
@@mohammedallah8083
The West has plenty to give
@@mohammedallah8083 It's the first shipment, macron will keep sending them and as a french, i don't mind the small increase in tax
Thanks for using the metric system... Myself I'm always confused with inches feet and other body parts.
Don't forget the British use of 'stone' measurements 😁
Imagine theses beasts shooting and scooping with the capabilities of close drone assisted target acquisition, Incredible precision with incredible speed and flexibility all of that far from danger... if well trained theses Caesar teams are going to be a permanent nightmare for Russians until the end. Only way to counter that is going to be with luck and from the air and they are going to have to eat lots of manpads and aa before finding them.
Trained crews.... Where are those going to be found? Can ukrainians even read french or are they going to be pushing random buttons on this thing till they figure it out on their own?

Merci la france
What this video does not say is that the power of these artillery systems lies in their precision. E.g. the American howitzer system can hit a target with 4 meter accuracy from a distance of 50 to 70 kilometers (30 to 50 miles). The Russians won't have any idea where these shells are coming from as they descend vertically in a straight line from above.
@French& Scottish US m777 that they gave the Ukrainians is just as good as this however this has shoot and scoot capability making it more survivable. If the 777 is the ER variant it actually has longer range than this.
@French& Scottish yeah yeah. How's that moon landing going for ya?
45 kms precison target less tahn 1 meter with powerful deflagration..
Excalibur rounds are compatible with the Caesar systems since 2018... so they also have this 50+km range that the US have
I would have guessed that the Swedish Archer SPH is a more efficient fully automatic howitzer with a smaller crew & possibly a faster, fully automatic fire control system. It has even been integrated with a MAN chassis.
Countries build weapons for some reasons... the Caesar is design to be light for transport and logistic.
18 tons.
That is why the Danes bought the armored version (30 tons)...Danes don t need to sent artillery to Africa, for example.
French Tech , awesome stuff !
Normandy tech is best !😄
You should make a video on the real pinnacle of mobile artillery Ukraine is about to receive: The ultra-high-tech German-made Pzh 2000s. Donated by the Netherlands while Germany will provide training and munitions.
You funny
"Oust France"? Really?! [facepalm] You know that it means "west", right? And you know that when you type a word in Google Translate, you can listen to it to know how it's pronounced, right? It's the minimum a professional should do. Thank you! SLAVA UKRAYINY !
That's serious hardware. Being self propelled it should wipe out columns and command centers.
45 kms target accuracy less than in 1 meter with high deflagration.. hello from Normandy where we watch over the graves of young americans soldiers who died D.DAY 6 june 1944. we keep the memory 😉
Did the name of the newspaper confuse anyone else? When they were talking about it, at first i was like "Oust france from where"? Lmao
Why the heck is this channel autoactivate subtitle. The guy speaks very clear english.
The guy also talks a lot of shite!
you should probably look at numbers - even if Cesar is a very capable systems, Urkaine likelly needs at least 40-60 systems to make a serious impact. A number of these will be destroyed, some even on their way from a border nation to Donbas. They need capable air defence for protection and preferably counter artillery radar for fire direction
The US gave 90 155mm guns.
France gave also 100 Mistral anti-aircraft (MANPADS)missiles. Norway also did send same number, but these were from their Navy, so probably less mobile.
Russians know the Caesar. As you mentioned, I'm afraid it will not even be able to make it's way to eastern Ukraine... as it'll quickly become target #1 for air any russian air strikes. Remember they can shoot very accurately and even from their homeland. 1 caesar will be worth a 400.000$ missile.
"Ouest" means "west" and is pronounced much more like west (Ouu-est, not "oust", like "ouster")
please do not swear in youtube

Well if France is providing Caesar 155mm, then US can provide Brutus 155mm which is easier to maintain though half the distance of Caesar. 🌻
I hope they do for now tanks you france
The BRUTUS ??? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!!
This shit is not even semi automatic,the range is hopeless and the rate of fire is apocalyptic ! This prototype is ideal for scrapping !
Bomblets are essentially cluster bombs
It's about time for France sends some of their weapons to Ukraine . When will Italy , Spain , and Portugal send some weapons to Ukraine ? I reckon that the people of those countries are supporting Ukraine with humanitarian aide , but their governments probably have some weapons that could be sent into battle against Russia .
France has been sending weapon since the beginning. They are just less vocal than some other countries. Caesar are just the tip of the iceberg
Hi,Italy should send the Paladin we have in May.Panzherfaust has been sent to Ukraine

Hope french and swedes will deliver BONUS guided ammo with it, one headshot is allways more impressive than ten around the target
Thanks for all the facts. The poor Russians.
The Danish Army recently bought 19 of an improved version of Caesar, which has impressed in its firepower but been critisised for not protecting the crew during firing like the old M109 system. Last week the Danish PM promised Ukraine weapons worth 80 million €, but it hasn't been revealed what kind of weapons, but the Caesar system has already been rumoured as a possibility. That would leave the Danish army without artillery however, but I suppose the Ukranians are more in an urgent need.
Perhaps the Danes should look at the Archer SPH on a MAN 8x8 chassis.
The system has a smaller crew of 3 and i am sure has a quicker Stop-Shoot-Go time than Caesar, being fully automatic with MRSI capability.
@@TB-zf7we the Danes already rejected the Archer, being too complex and too expensive. And the war in Ukraine showed that armor effectiveness on artillery is very relative. Look at all the MSTA howiters that Russia lost, they may be heavily armored but were destroyed as well
@@remistiegler5302 What I have noticed is that Russian training is minimal so I would question their tactics for SPH crews. There are quite a few proof pictures of various Russian artillery just setting up in the middle of a field or edge of forest with minimal camouflage be taken out.
Do Russian crews follow best practice for concealment & shoot-scoot???
I would argue, that what is most relevant to arty survival in this war appears to be a fast shoot-scoot. Caesar is far better than anything Russia has, and Archer is another level still.
Therefore isn't the Ogre a frag shell which is illegal under international law?
Only illegal when your on the end of all this madness
Artillery is the King of the Battlefield. 19 Delta US. Army MOS.
They need to be this good with a very long range due to the lack of crew protection. Together with the Dutch PzH-2000 they are going to be very good. Ogre munition to destroy orcs it is starting to sound like i am reading a fantasy book 🤣🤣🤣
Heres the thing. Any piece of hardware more advanced than a humvee is going to need specialised training. You don't just pick up a state of the art robotic howitzer and use it. Especially if you can't even read the instruction manual. try going from apple OS to Windows but in a different language, except you run the risk of accidently blowing yourself up if you push the wrong button.
French are really good to build the most versatile equipments , very smart system.
Vive l'Ukraine ! 🇫🇷🇺🇦❤️
vive la Normandy !
Brilliant
Looks like a self propelled gun rather than a howitzer to me, but what do I know
It IS a howitzer. Being self propelled does not preclude the gun from being a howitzer. The term 'Howitzer' refers to the type of gun, high trajectory, often indirect fire, for bombardment or barrage, whether self propelled or towed.
Cheers!
It's "ta-less" not "fales", the "h" in Thales in silent.
Like all the H from greek origin should be on english
So far heading to Ukraine from the west.

4 M777 155mm howitzers from Canada
12 Caesar 155mm SPGs from France

Ukraine is going to have a very powerful addition to its already very effective artillery. Plus more drones for spotting and more counter-battery radar systems to locate Russian batteries.

I hope the French actually did that and that it was not just another election trick. Prime Ministers will say anything to curry favors with the voting public but their deeds more often than not are almost the opposite of what they say. My own PM, Mark Rutte, is a master of that.
? 40 ukrainians techs are already on france to train on Caesars while they are en route to ukraine for days.

In 60 AD Apostle Saint Andrew traveled to the area of Kiev, preached, and said, one day a great city would be built here with many churches to the glory of God. Today there is a church to Saint Andrew in Kiev. The peoples in the area were Slavic. Kyi, Shchek and Khoryv, three brothers and the sister Lybid founded Kiev in 482 AD, Kiev was named after the older brother Kyi. Kiev the older brother was King. Herodotus wrote that Hercules had founded this land.
The Rus were Viking tribes that settled peacefully in Kiev as far back as 750 AD with the Slavs there, 400 years before Moskva existed. The name Russia, coming from the city Moskva, has no connection to the RUS. Russia coming from Moskva started with Batu Kahn much later as a vasal under Mongolian rule. All the early Czars were Mongolian and of no connection to the RUS. The Rus were with the Slavs to the south in Kiev. Moskva were Finnish Urgic Tribes; Mosk means cow and Va water, which are Finnish names. There was no RUS there. The ethnic background of Moskva is Finnish-Urgic and Mongolian. The Rus developed the religion, city Kiev, alphabet, churches, and had its saints. The founder of Kievian Rus (800) or the Rus was a Viking named Askold or Oskold (Norse) from Sweden; not Oleg as in the Russian story. Kievian Rus exists long Before Novgorod and Oleg’s arrival there. Askold is the Slavic name. Oskold, the first King of Kievian Rus was in Kiev before Oleg in Novgorod. Oskold had 200 ships and 20,000 warriors. Oskold was baptized in Constantinople (128 years before Volodymyr) and sent the first bishop back to Kiev. Oskold and Dir were the first Dynasty of Kievian Rus. Askold rules from the 40-60s and Dir to the 80s. Askold is buried in Kiev and the first Kievian Christian King & Dynasty. Oleg followed coming from Sweden through Novgorod and was a pagan. Russia as named today started in the city of Moskva over 400 years later after Kievian Rus or Rus. From Kiev, the capitol of Rus, Kievian culture was spread, much like the Greeks Hellenized the known world, or like the British anglicized the world by the English language. This process does not make Moskva to become RUS in as much as Persian are not Greek. How we are misled by a name; Russia. The capitol of the RUS has always been Kiev. There is no other RUS and no RUS in Moskva. Many say Ukraine began recently; but the culture of the RUS is Kievian RUS, both culture and ethnic background. Ukraine is a name given by Poland meaning outer lands. The land of the RUS before the Mongolian invasion was very large. The name RUS is a Norse name which means men that row; there are no men that row in Moskva. So Moskva adopted the name Russia while being a Mongolian vassal, essentially traitor to the RUS; and all the Czars were Mongolian-Finnish. The Culture of the Mongolian was centralized power, and that cultural imprint was passed on to present day Russia. Ukraine’s real name should be Kievian RUS, or Kievskarus! Russia began in Moskva by Batu Kahn and Novgorod conquered much later, still no connection to the Rus.
Putin & Lavrov should be ashamed of themselves, the USSR was an occupation; it never had the status of a sovereign state and due process of law that would be associated with a free society. Even today the mentality of the gulag exists. There is no freedom of press and speech, people are arrested for speech, there is no due process of law, and the religion is state run making it a totalitarian theocracy. As such, it did not deserve to exist in a free world; and history has shown such totalitarian organizations fail over time and author in many gulags. The true culture of Russia is Finno-Ugric and Mongolian, having nothing to do with the RUS (Kievian), expect borrowed as in the sense of Hellenized or Anglicized "forms" as a comparative reference. The centralized form of Russian politics is a very Mongolian imprint on culture. The actions of Putin seem to be another Mongolian invasion of Kiev; here I suggest as to the correct metaphor. I believe so. Putin & Lavrov insistence to have purview over eastern Europe also seems like paying tribute to the Mongolian Horde. Moskva started as an agglomeration of Finnish tribes, combining a Finnish name meaning cows water and developed by Mongolian culture. Mosk means cow and Va means water. The RUS are men that row, Vikings, Norse, established Kiev 400 years before (750 AD) Moskva even thought to exist. The name Russia for current nation is totally inappropriate. The current Russia started in Moskva; how misleading is the name Russia coming from Moskva that has no connection to the RUS. All the lands should be returned to Kiev; the West of Russia to Finland, and the East to Mongolia. Russia’s place on the globe appears as a temporary aberration in my view. To use threats of Nukes publicly strikes at the heart as adolescent behaviour; surely any nation or person that issues such threats and being an ally to such while not even having war imposed on them is not fit to rule. This would include allies of Russia. Oh yes, I remember, Russia didn't invent the bomb, they stole it in the 1940's and gave it to Kurchatov. Russia struggles with an identity crisis since its beginnings unoriginal to the ethnic groups. Its errors are numerous, 50 million killed by Stalin in WW2, allied to the Nazis to kill the Poles for their defeat in WW2, Holodomor where millions of Ukrainians were killed and grain stolen, and constant antagonist with Europe. We even have the Holy Mother announcing Russia’s errors at Fatima. Russia is a Mongolian culture and all the first Czars were Mongolian and Batu Kahn is the author.
Oskold was the grandson of Ragnar the king of Sweden, his name is old Norse and spoke old Norse, the name Rus is old Norse, he settled peacefully in Kiev and the Slavs made him king, he brought Christianity to Kiev with his son dir...his burial mound is where St Nicholas church is built, Oleg wasn’t even in Novgorod when this happened, and Oleg is not a Rus nor old Norse name. The Slavs called Oskold the name Askold. After came Dir, Oleg was a pagan who assassinated Dir, Oskold becomes the first dynasty...later when the line of kings get to Vladimir, he is captured at a trading post by the Mongols, the post is called Moskva, and the king killed. Moskva as a city was a Mongolian invention, and Novgorod becomes a part of that Russia by conquest, although having nothing to do with the Rus. Oskold line is Ragnar, ironside, Oskold from the King of Sweden Ragnar. Oleg is via Rurik coming much later. The accounts of Oskold are within the time, Al Mamun an Arab writer of the time wrote of Oskold, the Russian chronicles come hundreds of years later. In much the same way accounts of relevant history are better understood by those of the times, much like the Bible, dating to the original times makes the account authentic. The Russian chronicles are merely a tale and inaccurate.
Kiev was a city over 1000 years before Russia even existed. Kiev was Kievian Rus before Novgorod and when Oleg arrived. Putin is kidding himself if he thinks any part of Ukraine belongs to Russia. We can see that Israel belongs to the Jews, similarly all the lands around Kiev of Kievian Rus belong to Kiev as a single nation and city state. Russia's beginnings are a wanting child begun as a captive insurgency having nothing of its own; a captive state that was reeking in servitude to Mongolia and invented by Mongolia. The entire culture of Russia from Moscow is Mongolian centralized power, a pagan culture of no empathy and Christianity. The Christianity is tainted as a state religion or theocracy and politicized. History is often obscured by being written by the ones in charge. The history of Ukraine has been obscured by the Soviet Occupation and cultural appropriations. Moscow in an attempt to appropriate a history not its own, rewrote the narrative of history to cover up its compromised origins; Kiev and Ukraine is a history much older and more civilized; making contributions to civilization. Russian despotism becomes the blueprint, foundation & model for every despot nation, look at its allies; the error of its ways has spread throughout the globe; much like the message from the Holy Mother at Fatima. Those that are sympathetic to Russian atrocities can find similarities in their own histories. Ukraine has a democracy at a local level Moscow never had and fears. Russian boundless ignorance is a type often found in the poorest of nations, and usually the poorest have a history of the hardest tyrants over them that also inflict poverty, physical and spiritual, on others they attempt to subjugate, a reflection of their own lives, an abomination of desolation.
Askold was in Constantinople in 860 and Oleg arrived in Novgorod not until 862. The Arabs referred to Askold as the Slavic King or King of the Slavs which he had been for a while. Pontius says Askold brings Christianity to Kiev from Constantinople and a bishop. Ragnar the Norse King of Sweden was born in 767 AD, his son Bjorn ironside was born in 796 AD, and grandson Oskold (Askold) was born in 820 AD. Askold arrived in Kiev in 840 and had a son Dir, Both become King and the first Christian dynasty. Askold dies and gets a burial mound in a park in Kiev. Dir follows as King. Dir is assassinated by Oleg who is a pagan. Nobody knows who Rurik is or who the father is . Oleg is a generation away from Askold. Olga of Kiev builds a church on Askold’ s burial grounds. Pontius of Constantinople says Askold brings a Bishop and Christianity to Kiev. Russia much later is a Mongolian invention.....
How would Ukraine survive with this old model artillery vehicles
It seems everyone involved is getting an opportunity to compare and contrast some weapon systems in an actual hostile environment with a near-peer adversary.
@FearSum Bird Yup. Last I checked NATO considered The Russians to be a near-peer military power.
wow twelve what a joke, hardly what Ukraine needs
The sooner the better!! Slava Ukraine!!!💛💙
ukraine has got the goods now. 👌
Sounds great. Can the Ukrainians read the French instruction manual and all of the French language dials
You don't just send complex weapons. You train people on them. It should take less than two weeks to see them in action.
Ukrainian artillery specialists are training in France for about one month.
Europeans tend to be multi-lingual.
@@alexandrelarsac9115 2 weeks....!!?
Being familiar with this system, I can tell that a much longer training is needed to be able to properly operate a Caesar battery from scratch!
It's all metric, they are not American, they catch on quick.
Cheers!
Video is 90% useless, unless you are concern with its over length.
However, glad to hear the French are doing something. Amount time.
We gave milan missiles since day one, macron didnt talk about, hoping negociate with putin
Mistrals day one as well...
give 'em helll Ukrainians
Ukraine needs about 1,000 of these face up to Russians. Just few here and there will not be enough.
No 10 000 😁
Twelve? 1 2 3 4 5 - 12!!!!! That's a joke!!!!!
French is probably selling sat imaging to Russia at the same time. But let us hope for the best for the Ukraine.
🤡
ARTILLERY is old fashioned...accordind ng to who??
I thought French could do better and give Ukraine at least 60 to 100 howitzers
When muricans give 100, it's only 2 for each of the 50+ US states.
We are 27 euro states. France should not give much more, we 27 should all give 10 + guns like that.
@@philv3941 At least if each state can give 10, that would be a game changer.
@al rode yes. So 12 is pretty generous for a medium country. Nobody is as rich as the US.
HOW MANY????? WHEN? they are needed for week ago!!!
12 is better rhen none but when Ukrainians get them (German to compare -ya. ya, ....... will do)
hail caesar ukraine ivicta
Nice system. Even my own coward country Canada sent 4 155mm towed howitzers.
I too, as an American, am ashamed of my government.
Well done France it’s a start. It will complement the U.K’s 20 AS90 155 howitzers with 45,000 shells, 50 Stormer, Starstreak CVRT armoured track vehicles, 120 Mastiffs and Foxhounds and backfilling Polands with 50 Challenger tanks and 10,000 NLAWS ATGMs, 100 Brimstone Anti ship missiles…..etc etc.
CAESAR 45 kms precision target less than 1 meter with powerful deflagration.. hello from Normandy where we watch carefully over the graves of young americans soldiers who died on D.DAY 1944 😉
