155mm ShAP mod.99 Pluton is a Nikolian self-propelled artillery system developed by the Military Technical Institute of Nikolia and FMK for the Nikolian Royal Army. It is equipped with a fully automatic loader of both the shell and the charge, allowing it to have a very high rate of fire. In burst mode it can fire three rounds in nine seconds, ten rounds in 62 seconds, and can—depending on barrel heating—fire between 10 and 13 rounds per minute continuously. Thanks to its automatism, the crew can prepare for fire in just 2 minutes, while, with the help of a special vehicle, can restock to full ammunition in 12 minutes.
