"Who Says Dumb Artillery Rounds Can’t Kill Armor?"

.
Here's another article which I cited very often, a kind of mythbuster piece:

By Major (Retired) George A. Durham
Field Artillery Journal, U.S.Army, Nov/Dec 2002

.(MBT demolished by indirect 155mm HE hit) 


edit 2015-11:
Additional (original) document on the topic, shown by a Swedish armor blog.

edit 2017-06:
A link to a OIF lessons learned presentation with the quote
"Much more effective against armor than effects tables say" about 155 mm HE

  1. Thanks for reminding people about this article.

    The original field artillery publication (and article) is still available from Fort Sill http://sill-www.army.mil/firesbulletin/archives/2002/NOV_DEC_2002/NOV_DEC_2002_FULL_EDITION.pdf
