155mm Artillery

A 155mm artillery refers to a large, powerful weapon designed to fire shells with a diameter of 155 millimeters, commonly used by military forces. These artillery pieces are mounted on vehicles or stationary positions and can launch shells over long distances to target enemy positions, fortifications, or equipment. They are vital in providing indirect fire support, meaning they can hit targets behind hills or obstacles. The 155mm caliber is a standard size due to its balance of range, payload, and accuracy, making it a mainstay in modern artillery for strategic and battlefield operations.
