Mobile artillery refers to artillery systems that are capable of being moved quickly and efficiently on the battlefield. These systems, such as self-propelled howitzers, combine the firepower of traditional artillery with the mobility of armored vehicles, allowing for rapid deployment and repositioning during combat.
The primary advantage of mobile artillery is its ability to provide support to ground troops while remaining agile. This flexibility enables forces to adapt to changing battlefield conditions, making mobile artillery a crucial component of modern military operations. Examples include the M109 Paladin and PzH 2000, which are designed for both offensive and defensive roles.
