Tempered Hammer PLZ-05 Free (PBR)

The PLZ-05 is a modern Chinese self-propelled howitzer, developed to provide advanced artillery support on the battlefield. Often referred to as the "Tempered Hammer," it reflects a balance of firepower, mobility, and technological sophistication. Introduced in the early 2000s, the PLZ-05 serves as the backbone of China's modern artillery forces.

This howitzer is equipped with a 155mm L/52 caliber gun, compatible with NATO-standard ammunition, including precision-guided and extended-range rounds. Its advanced fire control system allows for exceptional accuracy, even at maximum ranges exceeding 40 kilometers with rocket-assisted projectiles. The autoloading system increases its rate of fire, ensuring rapid response during critical combat scenarios.

The chassis is based on a tracked platform, granting the PLZ-05 exceptional cross-country mobility. This enables it to operate effectively across diverse terrains, from rugged landscapes to urban environments. The vehicle is powered by a robust diesel engine, providing both reliability and endurance for extended operations.

Crew protection is prioritized, with the armored hull safeguarding against small arms fire and artillery shrapnel. The turret houses a sophisticated targeting system, including laser rangefinders and night vision capabilities, ensuring operational effectiveness in all weather and lighting conditions.

The 3D model of the PLZ-05 is meticulously detailed, capturing its imposing turret, angular armored chassis, and intricate gun barrel mechanics. This high-quality representation is suitable for military simulations, gaming environments, and educational tools, offering optimized geometry and realistic texturing for a lifelike appearance.
