What if they had spare keys? What if you didn't ask stupid questions?
Some nations don't field MRLS. For those who do field it would be mostly useless. I can think of two possibilities when a ramjet shell would be useful.
1- Some point target far away needs to be prosecuted but all MRLS are busy or waiting for munitions.
2- A low altitude shot to avoid the counter-battery radar.
Why are the back fins curved like that?An image a ramjet powered, satellite-guided extended-range artillery shell developed by CASIC. Placard is in English.
When flat they conform to the curve of the munition. The fins deploy open after the round is fired.
So they are only for stabilization? Maybe in that case being evenly distributed it does not matter if they are straight or curved.
The fins are curved so they can be flush with the rest of the munition as it is moving through the barrel.
I know that. I'm just trying to understand whether curved fins would work in the same way as a straight fins or there is some difference in how they operate.

A study on the trends and requirements of next generation self-propelled 155mm artillery system.
Some salient points:
– Longer firing range: 50km or more from the current 30km.
– Increased networking and sensor fusion with various assets such as drones.
– Increased cooperative engagement capabilities.
– More flexible propellant charges
– Guided shells with more guidance modes
– Extensive use of AI and automation to reduce human workload
– New power packs (hinting at hybrids), more mobility.
– Increased protection.

I'm lowkey excited about electrifying motor pools. Doesn't get much attention but there's huge potential, especially for logistics.
