PCL-181型榴弹炮配备有火控雷达系统,可发射全套国产155毫米弹药,包括最新型超远程射程可达120公里的高精度155毫米制导炮弹;发射冲压155毫米炮弹时,射程也能达到70公里以上,火力覆盖能力和射程要远强于M-777型榴弹炮,妥妥的全球射程最远威力最强大的155毫米榴弹炮。
155毫米榴弹炮安装在卡车底盘上,凭借较轻的战斗全重,赋予了这门大口径榴弹炮较强悍的机动作战能力,公路时速超过100公里,且越野性能非常好,可以方便地部署到西南边陲和雪域高原,从而增强了我陆军地面部队在此战略方向上的远程火力投送能力。
此外,PCL-181型是世界上首门具备前向零度直射强装弹药功能的车载155毫米榴弹炮,危机时甚至可以上打武装直升机下打主战坦克、步战车、自行火炮等装甲目标,由于信息化水平高,因此带来了射击精度高等特点。
