122 mm / 152 mm artillery pieces
122 mm and 152 mm artillery pieces refer to the caliber of the artillery shells they fire, with the number indicating the diameter in millimeters. The 122 mm artillery is commonly associated with howitzers and is typically used for indirect fire support, effective against enemy troops and light fortifications. The 152 mm caliber is larger, allowing for more powerful shells, including high-explosive and precision-guided munitions, making it suitable for both bombardment and anti-tank roles. These artillery systems play a crucial role in modern warfare, providing significant firepower to support ground forces.
