Howitzers are not rifles even though their barrel length is increasing (42 calibres in the case of the latest 155mm howitzers, iirc) due to the fact that their trajectory is anything but flat, howitzers are designed to drop a round vertically or as close to vertically as possible. Hope this helps. Dean. H.E. Quick Charge 7.... LOAD! |

bulldogg, yeah they call them water "cannons" and there are shot "guns". Neither of those were named by the military, and as I said, "Militarily speaking...." |
