The '''M1203 NLOS''' is a tracked hybrid electric/fuel artillery vehicle weighing in at 27 tons. It transports two crew and 24 rounds of ammunition to any frontline with the intent to provide networked, precise, heavy, long-range fire. The fully automatic 155mm/38 caliber cannon has quick-change capabilities that enable the rapid changing of round types and rate of fire. The hybrid technology allows the NLOS to perform key surveillance roles without a running engine, offering tactical stealth as well as the obvious benefits to increased fuel economy. | The '''M1203 NLOS''' is a tracked hybrid electric/fuel artillery vehicle weighing in at 27 tons.

Description
Mobile artillery, such as the M1203 NLOS, is a self-propelled artillery unit that intends to provide networked, extended-range, precise attacks on enemy targets. In general, mobile artillery supports any frontline unit, providing heavy, indirect long-range fire. It is lightly armored; however, and requires support and protection against direct air and ground attack. They are capable of being strategically airlifted and also have 50% NBC damage protection.
