Ukrainian commander says that the French Caesar is too vulnerable

Read the entire thread but it makes sense. Truck mounted artillery is huge. Hard to hide. Displaces well but is easily located on the modern battlefield. In the past they'd be hunted with close air support attack planes and attack helicopters. Now? Now they're hunted by drones and persistent survelliance is the norm. Truck mounted artillery is an evolutionary dead end. Too heavy for light forces, too light for heavy. Medium weight units are fulfilling a narrow gap in the spectrum and are probably only tailorable to out of area operations against advanced and lower insurgency type forces (of course they should perform well against peer units of the same classification).

25 km from the front in the Donbass, Yan Iatsychen, commander of the 56th motorized infantry brigade, paints a gloomy picture of the situation.

He talks about the vulnerability of the CAESAR. Because of its size, the CAESAR can quickly become a target of Russian drones. ⤵️ pic.twitter.com/bKEvi4kP8Z
