I’m very familiar with the carriages and chassis we have. Having worked on then.

No offense, Darth - but the very limited view of the weapon system makes it likely that it was a Russian-made D42, not anything we make (M198 or M777),

I commanded a M198 battalion and we had a war trophy D42 outside my office.

The very brief view of the Gunner yanking the lanyard shows him still standing behind the gun, not blown to smithereens as would be, if the breech failed.
