Talk:howitzer

RFV discussion: June 2022
Rfv-sense: "Normally a cannon with a tube length of 20 to 30 calibers; however, the tube length can exceed 30 calibers and still be considered a howitzer when the high angle fire zoning solution permits range overlap between charges"

Doesn't seem to define using what are essential characteristics. Either def. 1 or def. 1 reworded seems adequate. DCDuring (talk) 23:07, 1 June 2022 (UTC)


 * I really don't think there are two different types of ordnances known under howitzer. This should just be one sense. &mdash; Fytcha〈 T | L | C 〉 00:49, 11 June 2022 (UTC)
 * At best there are two different ways of trying to characterize the ordnance, but the second definition may include or exclude some specific examples, eg, old siege howitzers. DCDuring (talk) 15:30, 11 June 2022 (UTC)
