Mike, I've been out of the loop for almost a decade now with what the CF uses by way of SPG's...and correct me if I'm wrong, isn't the Canadian M109 the A4 model? And do we still have them on strength? I remember reading about the Copperhead round for the 155 some years back and was amazed at it's capabilities...did Canada ever deploy the Copperhead round or a similar smart round? Derek.
