Lol so it’s speedy that brings out the beasts 😂

I do think cluster munitions will make a big difference, save the Excalibur and heavy shells for hard targets

2 or three clusters over a trench line or during an assault is worth dozens of if not more HE shells

I’ve seen the result and it will break the spirit of even the most hardened defender or attacker, devastating

I suspect they will get some quick training on effective use, then apply their own experience. A quick salvo of several dozen shells from a Uke battery into a tree line or trench will be horrifying and demoralizing for the defenders. Against soft targets, they are said to be at least 5 times as efficient as HE. In Vietnam, the 155mm M483 produced 8 times as many casualties per round than standard M107.
