Every Type of WWII Artillery Explained
World War II artillery was more than just giant cannons. From small infantry mortars to massive railway guns and battleship naval guns, artillery shaped the battlefield in ways tanks and aircraft alone never could. In this video, we explain every major type of artillery used in World War II, including mortars, mountain and pack guns, anti-tank guns, field howitzers, anti-aircraft guns, self-propelled artillery, assault guns, tank destroyers, rocket artillery, railway guns, and naval guns. Each weapon had a different role: some supported infantry at close range, some destroyed tanks with high-velocity shells, some defended the skies, and others delivered overwhelming firepower from miles away. You’ll learn how WWII artillery worked, why certain guns became legendary, and how these weapons changed modern warfare forever. From the German 88mm Flak gun and Soviet Katyusha rockets to the American 105mm howitzer, M7 Priest, Schwerer Gustav, and Iowa-class naval guns, this is the complete story of artillery power in World War II.
