(subclass Howitzer ArtilleryGun) MilitaryDevices.kif 196-196 Howitzer is a subclass of artillery gun
(documentation Howitzer EnglishLanguage "Howitzer is an artillery weapon that falls between a cannon (or field gun) and a mortar. It is capable of both low angle fire like a field gun and high angle fire like a MortarGun, given the distinction between low and high angle fire breaks at 45 degrees or 800 mils (NATO). U.S. military doctrine defines howitzers as any cannon artillery capable of both high-angle fire (45° to 90° elevation) and low-angle fire (0° to 45° elevation); guns are defined as being only capable of low-angle fire (0° to 45° elevation); and mortars are defined as being only capable of high-angle fire (45° to 90° elevation)[Wikipedia]") MilitaryDevices.kif 197-204 Howitzer is a subclass of artillery gun
