Stuart's Horse Artillery

Stuart's Horse Artillery was a specialized unit in the Confederate Army during the American Civil War, consisting of fast, mobile artillery trained to support cavalry operations. Unlike traditional artillery, which was slower and more stationary, this unit used lighter, more maneuverable guns that could quickly reposition to provide rapid fire support or pursue retreating enemies. Their agility made them effective in the fluid, cavalry-focused battles of the Confederacy, allowing for swift strikes and flexible tactics on the battlefield.
