Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Training Circular (TC) 3-09.81, "Field Artillery Manual Cannon Gunnery," sets forth the doctrine pertaining to the employment of artillery fires. It explains all aspects of the manual cannon gunnery problem and presents a practical application of the science of ballistics. It includes step-by-step instructions for manually solving the gunnery problem which can be applied within the framework of decisive action or unified land operations. It is applicable to any Army personnel at the battalion or battery responsible to delivered field artillery fires. The principal audience for ATP 3-09.42 is all members of the Profession of Arms. This includes field artillery Soldiers and combined arms chain of command field and company grade officers, middle-grade and senior noncommissioned officers (NCO), and battalion and squadron command groups and staffs. This manual also provides guidance for division and corps leaders and staffs in training for and employment of the BCT in decisive action. This publication may also be used by other Army organizations to assist in their planning for support of battalions. This manual builds on the collective knowledge and experience gained through recent operations, numerous exercises, and the deliberate process of informed reasoning. It is rooted in time-tested principles and fundamentals, while accommodating new technologies and diverse threats to national security.

Download or read book The Principles and Practice of Modern Artillery Including Artillery Material Gunnery and Organization and Use of Artillery in Warfare Classic Reprint written by C. H. Owen and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 614 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Principles and Practice of Modern Artillery, Including Artillery Material, Gunnery and Organization and Use of Artillery in Warfare The attempt has been made, it is hoped with success, to lay a solid foundation in each branch, and to provide, by ample references to the best books, the means of pursuing either of them by further study. Whenever possible, mere Opinions have been avoided, as unsuitable to a work dealing chiefly with the results of practice and the principles to be derived from them. Part I. Gives a general description of the construction and objects of the different guns, carriages, and kinds of ammunition now used, without which the subsequent parts would be but imperfectly understood. To simplify the subject, naval stores and small arms have been omitted, occasional reference being however made to the former in the foot-notes; for the same reason, most of the large tables have been placed in the Appendix. In Part II. Long mathematical investigations have been avoided, but references have been given to where they may be found; and the methods of calculating practical gunnery questions have been fully explained. Part III. Treats of a subject too little studied in this country, but which is of great importance, and commands apparently at the present time a growing interest.

Download or read book Catalogue of Standard Ordnance Items Volume 2 Artillery Tank Armament Anti Aircraft Artillery Harbor Defense Mines Sights Fire Control Equipme written by Office of the Chief of Ordnance Technica and published by Periscope Film LLC. This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During WWII, the U.S. Army's ranks of men and its arsenal of equipment grew mightily. From a mere 190,000 soldiers in 1939, the Army would reach 8.4 million in 1945. That was a staggering achievement, and what is even more impressive is to consider how few guns, tanks, artillery and other essentials the military possessed prior to Pearl Harbor. Outfitting America's war machine, and assessing its needs and delivering the goods, was one of the War Department's most challenging tasks. To make it work, some weapons would be pressed into production even though they were obsolete, while others would be adopted as expedients in hopes that better replacements would soon be delivered. The full scope of what was produced in the handful of years between the military build-up that preceded December 7th and V-J Day is hard to comprehend. Fortunately, the War Department left behind this four volume "Catalogue of Standard Ordnance Items." A master catalogue that neatly lists most if not all of the vehicles, weapons, ammunition, and combat equipment that fought history's greatest war, it's an astonishing compendium. Volume 2 of the Catalogue details mobile artillery, railway and seacoast artillery, tank armament, anti-aircraft artillery, subcaliber guns, Army controlled submarine mines, fire control (including gun data computers and transmission systems, sights, telescopes and observation instruments, torque amplifiers, etc.) and aircraft armament. Companion books include Volume 2 which focuses on tanks, armored cars and vehicles, Volume 3 which examines small arms, and Volume 4 which is devoted to ammunition. This publication represents the first time in seventy years that Volume 2 has been presented in its entirety. Please note however, portions of this text were created from original versions that were sub-standard in quality. As a result, some areas of the text, photographs and diagrams may have quality or legibility issues.
