The Army’s new Extended Range Cannon Artillery (ERCA) has now hit a record 43 miles.
That’s the longest verified distance for a howitzer.
But a new Russian howitzer might be able to shoot just as far, if not farther.
The U.S. Army has dramatically increased the range of its howitzer guns, setting a new distance record.
