GH-52 APU

Notes: This is a newer Finnish towed howitzer put into production just prior to the Twilight War. It features a long 52-caliber barrel for more range, and an APU for short movements. The APU may move the howitzer at a combat speed of 4 and uses 5 liters per period. The weapon also has a pneumatic rammer to ease loading, and the weapon has good sights (+1).
