Hobbies & Interests
Originally applied to any group of infantry primarily armed with projectile weapons, artillery has over time become limited in meaning to refer only to those engines of war that operate by projection of munitions far beyond the range of effect of personal weapons. These engines comprise specialised devices which use some form of stored energy to operate, whether mechanical, chemical, or electromagnetic. Originally designed to breach fortifications, they have evolved from nearly static installations intended to reduce a single obstacle to highly mobile weapons of great flexibility in which now reposes the greater portion of a modern army's offensive capabilities.

Description
New Iranian Howitzer.
Hmm looks almost exactly like the m109.
In Iran "new" means "reverse engineered".
yea its nothing new we still do the same thing here in the US thats why we have Wright Paterson AFB in Ohio gents ... thats what they primarily do over there :P
Funny thing is this remind me of the old Mig-15 & F-86 Sabre debate reminds me of ... both the USSR and USA accused each other of reverse engineering each others planes when in reality they both copied the old Nazi Focke wolf Tu 183 prototypes from WW2 xD
looks evil!
