M982 Excalibur 50-Miles Away Precision Artillery Shell

Описание: Going back to its debut in medieval times, artillery weaponry has drastically altered the notion of what it is possible to do on a battlefield. From turning mighty walls to dust to reaching remote enemy locations all the way to defeating far larger forces, artillery fire has been a crucial part of warfare tactics.

Still, artillery has always suffered from an inherent inaccuracy issue throughout military history. And although the range and precision of these weapons have increased with the advances in technology, unleashing artillery fire in close proximity to friendly units or civilian infrastructure has always carried a significant risk of collateral damage.

However, this persistent problem might soon be a thing of the past, as the groundbreaking M982 Excalibur shell is spearheading a breakthrough in warfare technology that promises to take artillery precision to an astounding 2-meter margin of error.

The novel guided projectile is expected to combine the advantages of an artillery barrage with the precision and control of a guided missile system to allow the US military to confidently use artillery in urban scenarios without the fear of friendly fire.

If successful, the M982 Excalibur might start a new revolution in artillery technology that could be as significant as the development of the first gunpowder cannon in the 14th century.
