@@samschreiber1640 do you know anything about modern day American artillery, they are quite accurate and a lot goes into preparing the shots, even old WW1 artillery guns had a lot going for them.
Its amazing that today's artillery: computer aided, using GPS, high tech, freakish lethality of the shell, absolute accuracy to within yards of the target... and yet, a soldier "fires" the gun by pulling on a rope/lanyard, like in 1800s era! Love it!
I still am boggled that the Gustav Cannon was essentially this but scaled up to a ridiculous degree. A cannon capable of taking a city. If only it could move beyond its tracks.
The gustav cannon sucked and was destroyed by an improvised thermite… hitler was all about appearance when it came to military technology rather than practicality.

There's a lot of good weapons built over the years but one of my favorite is the catyusha rocket system accuracy wasn't the best but it didn't need to be it's a very feared weapon for a reason

Howitzers are something fierce. They were shooting close compared to how far they could reach out to. With the proper clear path, you'd barely hear the round coming in, and it could punch through a tank.
Serious question: do artillery pieces need to be this big? Surely having a smaller piece would require less crew to work and easier to move around. These seem like they would take hours in to set up and would be easy targets to take potshots at and disable before setup
