In the years leading up to World War II, the United States armed forces undertook a complete modernization of their artillery capabilities to increase their efficiency and effectiveness.
A result of this modernization project was the development of the Howitzer 155/23.
The gun was first produced in 1942 as a medium artillery piece and served with the US Army throughout World War II.
It could use different types of ammunition and reached a maximum range of 14,600 meters.
The weapon turned out to be very robust and reliable.
It was also used by the US Army during the Korean War and also during the Vietnam War before it was eventually replaced by the more modern M198 Howitzer.
