BTW, Gvozdika is two generation behind the recent Russian systems.
Yes. But this comparison is not just current day, goes back to the Cold War and comparable Cold War systems.
My point is the USA was riding on a bluff in the Cold War as well.
In a peer war, land based artillery creates 60-80 percent of casualties. It’s the single most important weapons system there is. Arguably more important than all others put together.
I’m starting to think the USA bluffed the Russians into a Cold War defeat.
