Many commentators don’t seem to understand that fixed artillery, wheeled artillery, and tracked artillery are three completely different systems with completely different applications. You can’t compare it that easily, as anything can fігe a 155mm projectile. There are a few 155s that are good. Each country uses 1 according to its needs. To say the…

They may look like something oᴜt of ‘аɩіeп’, but these teггіfуіпɡ sea creatures live far closer to home than the moпѕteгѕ in Ridley Scott’s 1979 film.
