In the years leading up to World War II, the United States undertook a
complete modernization of the army's artillery capabilities to increase
their efficiency and effectiveness. Whilst great attention was paid to
ammunition and artillery trailers, one outcome of this modernization
project was the development of the 155/23 howitzer. It was first
produced in 1942 as a medium artillery piece and served the US Army
throughout the Second World War. It could use different types of
ammunition and had a maximum range of 14,600 meters. Very robust and
reliable, it also proved to have good operational longevity. It was in
fact used by the U.S. Army post WW2 during the Korean War, and indeed
during the Vietnam War before eventually being replaced by the more modern M198.
