guided artillery shells

Guided artillery shells are advanced projectiles equipped with navigation systems, such as GPS or laser guidance, allowing them to adjust their flight path during flight. Unlike traditional shells that follow a ballistic trajectory, guided shells can correct their course to accurately hit specific targets, even if they are moving or if the target's position shifts. This precision reduces the number of shells needed and minimizes collateral damage, making them effective for targeting enemy equipment or protected positions. Their technology enhances the effectiveness of artillery by combining the power of traditional shells with modern targeting capabilities.
