Towed artillery refers to large-caliber guns or howitzers that are transported by vehicles or towed by other means, such as trucks or tractors. This type of artillery is designed to be moved easily to different locations on the battlefield, allowing for flexibility in combat situations. Towed artillery can be set up quickly and is often used for indirect fire support. These weapons are typically mounted on a carriage that can be hitched to a towing vehicle. Examples of towed artillery include the M777 howitzer and the FH70. Towed artillery plays a crucial role in military operations, providing firepower while remaining mobile and adaptable.
