Description
Add a specialized piece of Cold War U.S. self-propelled artillery hardware to your collection with this 155mm M109 Howitzer Plate, identified by Part Number 10925836 and the supplied FSN 1025-986-8616. This part was manufactured by Page Devices, making it a strong reference item for collectors of U.S. Army artillery parts, M109 howitzer components, and part-numbered military surplus hardware.
Public parts and technical-manual references identify P/N 10925836 as a mounting plate. One M109 repair-parts reference lists 10925836 as PLATE, MOUNTING within the gun shield mounting components section, while other public parts data cross-references the same part number under NSN 5340-00-981-8616. Because older FSN markings, later NSN references, and component applications can vary, buyers working on a specific restoration should verify fitment against their own parts manual and vehicle configuration.
Historical Significance
The M109 155mm self-propelled howitzer is one of the most important American artillery systems of the Cold War and modern era. U.S. Army sources describe the M109 family as a long-serving 155mm self-propelled artillery platform, with service ranging from the jungles of Vietnam to later conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The M109 was built around mobility, protection, and sustained fire support. Unlike a towed howitzer, the M109 gave artillery units a tracked, armored platform that could move with mechanized forces, fire, reposition, and continue supporting the mission. That service history gives even small M109 components strong collector appeal.
This mounting plate represents the support hardware behind the larger weapon system. Parts like this helped secure, mount, protect, or support the assemblies that made the vehicle usable in the field. For collectors, these smaller components help tell the complete story of the M109 beyond the cannon and vehicle hull.
The M109 Howitzer Connection
The M109 series became a central part of U.S. self-propelled artillery doctrine. Later Army references describe the M109 Paladin as a 155mm self-propelled howitzer platform that remained a major Army artillery system for decades.
This plate is especially relevant to collectors interested in:
- 155mm M109 Howitzer components
- M109 gun shield and cab hardware
- Cold War self-propelled artillery parts
- Vietnam War and post-Vietnam artillery displays
- M109A2, M109A3, M109A4, M109A5, and M109A6 reference collections
- U.S. Army ordnance parts and technical manual research
- Part-numbered and FSN / NSN military surplus components
Public Page Devices records identify Page Devices Inc. with CAGE Code 19134, supporting the manufacturer connection provided for this item.

Why This Part Matters
The M109 Howitzer is a major U.S. artillery platform with a long service record. Large systems like the M109 depended on hundreds of smaller plates, brackets, shields, fasteners, guards, and mounting parts to remain serviceable.
This plate helps preserve that support story. It is a part-numbered component tied to a specific artillery system, not a generic hardware item. For collectors and restorers, that gives it value as a physical reference piece from the M109 parts ecosystem.
It pairs well with M109 howitzer manuals, 155mm artillery displays, self-propelled artillery collections, gun shield hardware, Cold War vehicle parts, and U.S. Army ordnance component displays.
