Line platoons from the Philippine Army’s 4th Field Artillery Battalion (4FAB) maintained their daily routine activities by conducting a gun laying and Fire Direction Center (FDC) exercise.
According to 4FAB, these drills are designed to enhance their artillery skills and improve their ability to deliver timely and accurate artillery fire.
The exercise aimed to test the platoon’s proficiency in laying and firing their howitzers, with a focus on speed, accuracy, and teamwork.
“During the exercise, the platoon’s gun crew worked together to quickly and accurately lay their howitzers, using a combination of traditional survey techniques and modern technology to ensure precise targeting,” the 4FAB said.
