Next up in our series on the changes in military tech, we’re looking at artillery.

Gone are the days of endless artillery barrages. The Russians have relied on this tactic for years, but drones and acoustic detection are changing that. When a cheap drone is capable of quickly spotting, targeting, and eliminating artillery, something clearly needs to change. And no, a “shoot and scoot” strategy isn’t sustainable.

There’s still a case to be made for artillery, but it is quickly waning. In future conflicts, new systems that prioritize speed, precision, and decentralization will be essential.
