The M-108 self-propelled artillery ended up being introduced, in the early '60s, to satisfy a particular need of U.S. Army: develop a top flexibility howitzer in a position to change the the aging process M52. The M-108 flexibility, obtained as a result of the effective diesel turbocharged 8-cylinders motor and to the efficient suspension system, ended up being its primary power. The armament ended up being created by the 105 mm howitzer and also by one 12.7 mm device gun, suited to the rooftop, for close protection purposes.
