These two artillery pieces have different design philosophy. K9 is considering full scale artillery battle with North Korea while CAESAR is focused on prompt deploy. K9 is desktop computer with full performance while CAESAR is a laptop what we can bring anywhere any time.
Time to first round: K9: 28 seconds Ceasar: 51 seconds Time after 'last round' to 'on wheels': K9: 20 seconds Ceasar: 37 seconds From complete stop to back on wheels: K9: 48 seconds Ceasar: 88 seconds Other observations: Time unprotected: K9: 0 seconds Ceasar: 86 seconds
Good observation. Also, there's no crew protection from enemy fire and outside elements with caesar. can you imagine doing that in Norwegian winter? K9 has NBC protection, withstand 14.5mm round and russian standard 152mm shell fragments. Just no comparison.
@@lsq7833 Have you worked on the caesar? Because I was a driver on one before we thankfully gave them to Ukraine and before that I was a driver and gunner on an M109. The Caesar is awful in regards to all the things you mention.
I do not want to have a fight because of these arms rivalry. I think that the weapons have considered the geographical characteristics and specificity of the country.
But what with repairing stuff? If K9 damaged can it be fixed fast? With resources of crew? And Can production of such type of machines can be started on new factories fast enough?
28 sec VS 52 sec ?
K9 28 seconds : CAESAR 52 seconds

Okay, now let's compare precision, logistic footprint, maintenance and strategic and operational mobility.
OOPS.

French insisted on Romanians buy this slow donkey. Most likely thhey will buy the K9.
Thunder incredible!

초탄 쏘고 이동할때까지 상대방은 쏘지도 못하네 실제 전시상태였다면 압살이군
Caesar is very very slow!... i'm die!
역시 대한민국의 k9 대단하네요 언빌리버블 !

K9 SPH is STILL in production in S. Korea as of Nov 2017. And over 1,000 units will be produced.
Ha ha ha
You chose wrong objects to compare. K9 is self propelled canon which can be misunderstood to tank. And, on the video, ceasar is not.
Jun Son. caesar was one of systems that competed against K9 for Norwegian SPG competition, so it's a fair comparison.
