Flash: US Army suspected of monitoring AH BBS
« on: September 06, 2020, 06:21:49 PM »
In light of the repeated discussions about tanks main-gunning aeroplanes, we now have this:

A U.S. Army self-propelled howitzer firing a Mach-5 shell just shot down a cruise missile for the first time.

It’s a big deal. Imagine, in some future war, Army howitzers ringing a strategic air base in the western Pacific, swatting down incoming missiles so the base’s planes can take off and land unmolested.

Now let's hope they don't read the threads about how we need more WWI aeroplanes...

A yak-3 would just flown on like normal after a 105mm or 155mm hit   :aok
My ammo last for 6 Lancasters, or one Yak3.
