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.
An image of something supposedly thought up of on September 5, 1917. WW2 would have loved this. Well, it wouldn't of started, the Germans would no longer exist, just imagine this sucker VS. the P1000/P1500 Landkreuzer series tanks. The Apocalypse.
lol rail gun
Trained for the train ride.
aw, a 370 mm gun, how cute ^.^
Bigger than you, bozo.
That 800MM railgun has no actual pictures. Those are all DORA Railguns, which are around this French Railgun's size. You made a fool out of yourself. I suppose it could be an upgrade.
Fail! The Germans created two 800mm railroad guns, the Dora and Schwerer Gustav. The tiny gun you think about was the Leopold 283mm gun which was almost mass produced (25 examplares)
