German artillery refers to the large-caliber guns and missile systems used by the German military, particularly during the two World Wars. It includes various types of weapons, such as howitzers, field guns, and anti-aircraft artillery, designed for long-range bombardment and support in ground operations. Notable examples include the 88 mm Flak gun and the Krupp 105 mm field gun. Throughout history, German artillery has evolved significantly, incorporating advanced technology and tactics. During World War II, the Werner von Braun team developed rocket artillery, leading to the creation of the V-2 rocket, which marked a significant advancement in military technology.
