Artillery is a class of large military weapons built to fire munitions far beyond the range and power of infantry's small arms. Early artillery development focused on the ability to breach fortifications, and led to heavy, fairly immobile siege engines. As technology improved, lighter, more mobile field artillery developed for battlefield use. This development continues today; modern self-propelled artillery vehicles are highly mobile weapons of great versatility providing the largest share of an army's total firepower.
In its earliest sense, the word artillery referred to any group of soldiers primarily armed with some form of manufactured weapon or armour. Since the introduction of gunpowder and cannon, the word "artillery" has largely meant cannon, and in contemporary usage, it usually refers to shell-firing guns, howitzers, mortars, rockets and guided missiles. In common speech, the word artillery is often used to refer to individual devices, along with their accessories and fittings, although these assemblages are more properly called "equipments". However, there is no generally recognised generic term for a gun, howitzer, mortar, and so forth: the United States uses "artillery piece", but most English-speaking armies use "gun" and "mortar". The projectiles fired are typically either "shot" (if solid) or "shell" (if not). "Shell" is a widely used generic term for a projectile, which is a component of munitions.
The modern artillery of the Great War was responsible for the vast majority of military deaths in that conflict, but how has artillery developed from that war to this one? Today we take a look at some of the artillery of WW2.

Why Do Modern Militaries Still Need Artillery
Why modern militaries still need artillery. Anyway, before we move further, we will identify what artillery is. Artillery refers to a class of heavy military ranged weapons built to launch munitions far beyond the range and power of infantry firearms. Early artillery development focused on the ability to breach defensive walls and fortifications during sieges, and led to heavy, fairly immobile siege engines. As technology improved, lighter, more mobile field artillery cannons developed for battlefield use. This development remain today, modern self-propelled artillery vehicles are highly mobile weapons of great versatility generally providing the largest share of an army’s total firepower.

Artillery Ammunition With Howitzer Hit By Ukrainian Artillery
This channel examines the Ukraine-Russia conflict. Looking mostly from Ukraines perspective, we follow up on Russian losses, progress and tactics on the battlefield. A military forces size does not always matter nearly as much as tactics employed, training or thinking outside the box. Ukraine successfully managed to do the impossible multiple times during the conflict, it seems more impossible action will occur in the future! Leaving less for tomorrow!

Most artillery is aimed by looking through a sight at an candy-striped aiming post. The sight is then offset from the aiming post as ordered by the Fire Direction Center.
When the artillery is fired, the sight is rechecked to make sure the gun hasn't moved. If it has, the post is re-sighted before firing again.

Soldiers Hone Skills on M777 Howitzer Artillery
U.S. Soldiers conduct a live-fire training exercise with the M777 towed 155mm howitzers. While deployed, Soldiers focus not only on maintaining security, but also on training to sustain, enhance, perfect skills and readiness.
The M777 uses a digital fire-control system to provide navigation, pointing and self-location, allowing it to be put into action quickly.
