Soldiers from the NJ Army National Guard’s 3-112th Field Artillery fire M119A3 artillery pieces at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst. The M119 howitzer is the US designation for the L119 light gun, a lightweight British 105mm howitzer used by the United States Army. It can be easily airlifted by helicopter, or dropped by parachute. It does not need a recoil pit. The M119A3 is the newest version with digital fire control system and an inertial navigation system for self location. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M119_howitzer)
