AC-90 is a modern British self-propelled howitzer. The first prototypes of the car were created in the early 1990s, and serial production continued in 1992-1995, ending with the release of 179 cars. The AS-90 is a 660 hp Cummins VTA 903T-660 engine. The vehicle is armed with one 155-mm Royal Ordonance L31 howitzer and one 7.62-mm machine gun. The AS-90 was created to replace the M109 self-propelled howitzer from the United States. Initially, in the early 1980s, work on the new SP-70 self-propelled gun was carried out in cooperation in several European countries. However, in 1986, cooperation was terminated and participants in the SP-70 program, including Great Britain, began to work independently. The fruit of these works is - in the case of the British army - exactly the AS-90. It is definitely a modern weapon with decent parameters: it has a good rate of fire (up to 18 shots in 180 seconds) and an acceptable range: a classic rocket has a range of about 25-26 km, and a gas generator up to 30 km. AS-90 belongs exclusively to the British armed forces and was not exported to other countries.
