105mm Howitzer

A 105mm howitzer is a type of artillery weapon designed to fire shells over long distances. The "105mm" refers to the diameter of the projectile it launches—about 4 inches. It’s used by military forces to target enemy positions, provide indirect fire support, and deliver explosives with accuracy. The howitzer is mounted on a mobile platform, allowing it to move and reposition quickly. It combines range, firepower, and flexibility, making it effective for battlefield support. Unlike small cannons, it’s specifically designed for indirect fire, meaning it doesn’t aim directly at targets but instead fires shells in a high arc.
