Hi folks. I need to know idf's artillery models for 1973. Wich 105 howitzer may use?

Waco Joe09 Jun 2016 9:22 a.m. PST

According to Wiki

I'll use the m2/101 for towed howitzer

Excuse my being puzzled: you ask which 105 howitzer was used by the IDF in 1973, someone tells which artilery pieces were used by the IDF in 1973 and you decide to use an artilery piece which was not used by the IDF in 1973.

Paint me confused…

Becaude i don't find what kind of 105 towed artilleey was used in yom kippur. I have 150 but i don't know any more. Do you know what 105 uses the idf? It is an american gun. Not a láser cannon

The IDF did not use any 105mm towed artillery in the Yom Kippur War. They decided after 1967 that 105mm towed artillery was obsolete.

As Waco Joe wrote, they used self-propelled guns: 175mm (US), 155mm (US, French and Israeli) and some 105mm (US and French). 160mm (Israeli) and 120mm (French and Israeli) self-propelled mortars were also used.

Towed artillery was 155mm howitzer (French and Israeli) and 130mm (Soviet).

You can use US M101 105mm if you choose but it is as realistic as a laser cannon. ;-)
