Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The M198 howitzer is a medium-sized, towed, 155mm artillery piece, developed for service with the United States Army and Marine Corps. It replaced the WW II vintage M114A2 155mm towed howitzer in the early to mid 1980s. It can be dropped by parachute or transported by a CH-53E Super Stallion or CH-47 Chinook. The M198 is deployed in separate corps- and army-level field artillery units, as well as in artillery battalions of light and airborne divisions. It also provides field artillery fire support for all Marine Air-Ground Task Force organizations. The M198 is being replaced by the BAE Systems Global Combat Systems M777 ultra lightweight howitzer, with deliveries underway. The M198 is also used by the Australian Army and the Pakistan Army. High Explosive: Explosive Composition B material packed into a thick,internally-scored shell which causes a large blast and sends razor-sharp fragments at extreme velocities. The kill zone is approximately a radius of 50 meters and casualty radius is 100 meters. The Marine Corps and US Army also uses the M795 High Explosive round.
