US M110A2 8-inch Self-Propelled Howitzer - Right View
The M110 8-inch Self-Propelled Howitzer was introduced in 1961. An improved version, the M110A1, with a longer barrel for more range, was introduced in 1971. A further improved version, the M110A2, with a double baffle muzzle brake for even more range, was introduced in 1978. This howitzer served in the US Army and the US Marine Corps and had a reputation for great accuracy. It was retired from US Army service in 1993.
After visiting the Cherokee National Museum, I drove southwest, to go to Fort Sill. This is a United States Army post north of Lawton, Oklahoma. It is home to the Artillery Museum and the Air Defense Artillery Museum. I visited this place on June 8, 2019.
