Historical background :
The M198 155mm towed howitzer is a versatile and reliable artillery piece that has served as a critical component of the United States military's artillery forces for several decades.

The M198 howitzer was introduced in the late 1970s and has since been employed by the U.S. Army and Marine Corps, as well as by various allied and partner nations. It is designed to provide indirect fire support, primarily in the form of high-explosive artillery rounds.

The M198 is towed into position by a prime mover vehicle and is typically operated by a crew of eight. Its 155mm caliber allows for a wide variety of artillery rounds to be fired, including standard high-explosive, illumination, and smoke rounds. It also has a notable range, capable of firing shells over 30 kilometers.

The M198 howitzer is known for its accuracy and firepower, making it a formidable asset in both offensive and defensive operations. It can be used in various roles, from providing suppressive fire during ground operations to delivering precision strikes in support of ground forces.

While the M198 has been largely phased out in favor of more modern self-propelled howitzers, it continues to serve in the arsenals of many countries and remains an effective and adaptable artillery piece.
