Soviet artillery
Soviet artillery refers to the range of large-caliber guns, howitzers, and rocket systems developed and used by the Soviet Union, particularly during World War II and the Cold War. Renowned for their effectiveness, Soviet artillery was characterized by high mobility, mass production, and the use of advanced tactics like massed fire. Notable examples include the Katyusha rocket launcher and the powerful M-30 howitzer. Soviet artillery played a crucial role in ground battles, providing heavy fire support, disrupting enemy positions, and contributing to the overall strategy of attrition and territorial gain.
