Extended Range Artillery

Extended Range Artillery (ERA) refers to advanced artillery systems designed to fire projectiles over much greater distances than traditional artillery. This is achieved through specialized design features—such as longer barrels, advanced propellants, or multiple explosive charges—that increase launch velocity and improve accuracy. ERA allows militaries to target distant enemy positions while staying protected behind their lines. These systems can use various projectile types, including guided munitions, making them versatile for different missions. Overall, ERA enhances battlefield reach and effectiveness, enabling forces to neutralize threats from safer, extended ranges.
