best artillery wot 2023

None

• Towed artillery pieces
  • Air transport - can be transported in smaller aircraft and can be slung under medium utility helicopters
  • Easier to maintain - can swap trucks over and fill the truck up with ammunition
  • Cheaper cost - less than a SPG
  • Easier to improve a full position around towed guns - large stockpile of ammunition can be used
  • Easier to transport - lighter weight
  • Easier jury-rig repair
  • Less logistics tail - can use common chassis elements for other armored fighting vehicles
  • More tubes firing - more advantageous than 1 SPG
  • More storage
  • Can be delivered to places unreachable for an SPG
• SPGs
  • Self contained, relatively armored cannon
  • Can move relatively easily
  • Provides extra security - can establish fire superiority
  • More efficient repair/retrieval system for large tracked vehicles
  • Can minimize supply issues by using common parts between the Bradley and MLRS
  • Better range

• Modern Gun-Howitzers
  • These weapons can do both high-angle fire like a howitzer and high-velocity fire like a gun.
  • Most armies refer to these weapons as howitzers but the British call them guns and the Russians still use compound gun-howitzer terminology.
• Mortars
  • Any piece of artillery that is designed specifically for indirect fire at angles of more than 45 degrees.
  • Tend to be low-velocity weapons.
  • Small-caliber mortars (120mm or less) are often considered infantry heavy weapons rather than artillery.
  • Larger mortars do still exist.
• Howitzers
  • Capable of both low-angle and high-angle fire.
  • Practically by definition, a howitzer can elevate beyond 45 degrees.
• Guns
  • Capable of low-angle fire and have higher velocity.
  • Guns have the longest ranges.
• Naval Artillery
  • Almost always called guns.
  • Naval artillery capable of high-angle fire is almost always for anti-aircraft purposes.
• Cannons
  • Not really a strictly defined term.
  • By one definition, a cannon is capable of firing an explosive shell (though it may not always fire them).

• M44
  • It has the best credit earner in the current tech tree.
  • It is reasonably accurate which means it can do good damage.
  • It fires only HE so its shells are cheap, and the repair cost of the tank is cheap.
• 105 leFH18B2
  • It is a captured French B1 bis tank that has a German 105mm howitzer gun fitted to it by the Rheinmetall-Borsig company.
• Tier 8 Premium Artillery
  • According to TragicLoss and CabbageMechanic, there won’t be one in the near future.
  • If it does get released, it will be available through a marathon that can only be completed by playing artillery.
  • The marathon will go for a full month due to the restriction of only being possible to complete by playing artillery.
  • The requirements will be a bit more restrictive however, if you wish to grind XP you will need to earn a total of 300,000 base XP.

• M12
  • By far the best American arty for stunning missions according to the stats and Python graph provided
  • Assumes 100% crew, no food, equipment, or anything else was used
  • Top gun was used
• M53/M55
  • Similar or better than the M12 with the 155mm gun
  • Larger range of traverse and mobility
  • Could be less expensive than other Tier 9s because of its long reload and fewer shells fired
• FV3805
  • Stock or second gun might be pretty good for the stun mission

What are the advantages and disadvantages of US Arty (M12, M55 etc.) compared to other artillery pieces?

• Centurion Action X (Act. X):
  • Good DPM (2837 HP)
  • Good aim time and dispersion
  • APCR main shell with better velocity
  • HE gold shell with 210 mm penetration
• Swedish Tank Destroyer Line:
  • High penetration values
  • Great depressions
  • New mechanics with no armor
• American Heavy Tank Destroyer Line:
  • Poor mobility
  • Slow turning speeds
  • Very thick frontal armors
  • Big guns
• Soviet Heavy Medium Tank Line:
  • Slightly better armor than other mediums
  • Worse mobility

• PT-SAUs
  • They have an excellent gun, which can penetrate all tanks.
  • Most of the PTs have no turret, so shooting is possible only in the direction of movement of the equipment.
  • It is recommended to stay behind allied units and cover them with fire.
• Heavy tanks
  • They are excellent for close combat and ramming.
  • They have thick armor but lack mobility.
• Medium tanks
  • They are highly accurate but not as mobile as light tanks.
  • They have more armor, so some of the enemy’s hits will ricochet.
• Light tanks
  • They are suitable for constantly rushing to attack fighters and are excellent scouts.
  • They are mobile due to the high speed, and their main advantage is a good overview, which allows you to notice the enemies from afar.
• Artillery pieces
  • They suit patient players and true strategists because one shot can destroy the enemy’s tank.
  • They have a complete lack of armor, low mobility, and a long flight time of the projectile to the target.
  • With a good choice of position, it is difficult to detect even an experienced “firefly”.

• US Arty (M12, M55 etc.)

  • have a better rate of fire
  • have more mobility
• German Artillery

  • are noticeably more accurate shots
