Military Artillery

Military artillery refers to large-caliber weapons, such as cannons, howitzers, and missile launchers, used by armed forces to fire projectiles over long distances. Its primary purpose is to support ground troops, destroy enemy positions, and provide indirect fire to weaken adversaries before an assault. Artillery systems are strategically positioned and operated with precise calculations for range, trajectory, and target type. They play a crucial role in modern warfare by delivering powerful, far-reaching firepower, often coordinated with other military units to achieve battlefield objectives efficiently.
