From where does artillery come?

If I’m not wrong they’re 152 mm shells with around 10 kilograms of TNT equivalent. Regardless of whatever is coming from above, we could be a little more optimistic of what is actually sending it from the skies.

I think this concept is way too much sci-fi and applying basic physics to it dropping ammunition from the sky would certainly affect the accuracy (why explains why artillery support in War Thunder is so inconsistent);

We can use a divine figure to explain why physics couldn’t be applies (since Gaijin themselves can’t actually comprehend to make some aspects in game better like grip and traction and terrain interaction with different materials such like rubber and steel).

When did they change to 152mm? And tbh the damage they made didn’t look like 152mm or 122mm, more like 75mm

it would be cool if it was fired by emplacements like the ones in Air RB and if you destroyed them the volume of firepower in an artillery strike would be lowered

O Lord, bless this Thy Hand Grenade Thy Holy Artillery Shell that, with it, Thou mayest blow Thine enemies to tiny bits in Thy mercy."

At one point, there were artillery batteries on the field. They weren’t marked, but they were there if you searched for them.

If you took them out, then the artillery stopped working, and people would get upset and confused.

Now it just drops down unconditionally, just spawning from the air.

You are correct. I used to blitz past the field in a fighter, and race to take it all out.

The enemy used to complain that the game was bugged, even when it was shown in the kill-feed.

They should bring it back to make planes want to go get something else.

Wouldnt it be cool if we could pick what artillery we want to use? More shells from 82mm mortars, or few shells from 152mm howitzers?
Smoke? Cluster? Fire?
