The M777 is the newest artillery piece to be used by the Australian Army. The M777 counts the L119 105mm light gun and the M198 155mm medium gun in the Royal Australian Artillery unit.

This new equipment is a significant advancement in Army capabilities as the weapon has a much higher level of digital connectivity that allows for faster, safer and more accurate application of effects throughout the combat space. The M777 can connect to the Australian network and see which provides the accurate and timely response needed to support ground forces in all weather conditions, day or night.

The M777 provides direct support to combat troops through offensive and defensive fire with conventional and precision-guided projectiles. It can also use projectiles and sprints.

The M777 will be towed behind the Mack cannon tractor and a replacement for the Mack purchased under Project Land 121. The M777 can also be lifted by the Army's CH-47 Chinook helicopter and carried with the Air Force's C-17A Globem.
