We are still producing both the M110A2 and M852A1.

M110 has been around since ww2 and was originally made to house other chemicals.
It's an HE round with a thinner shell wall filled with WP with a burst rod down the center.  Typically fired with an impact or proximity fuze.

M852A1 is a cargo round fired with a time fuze to dispense 116 felt wedges saturated with WP at a higher altitude.  They disburse over a wider area and produce a better smoke screen than m110.  The screen can be to obscure friendlies, or placed directly on top of hostiles to blind them.

Eta: what you are seeing is the equivalent to our m852a1 round.

Oddly enough they were flying US F-86s during the wars with India.  Super pro American sentiment in higher military ranks then.  Harboring Osama 30 years later.  Don't trust them.

The European Union has called out Elon Musk and social media platform 'X' following a rise in "illegal content and disinformation".

The warning was issued in a letter by the EU Digital Chief, Thierry Breton, who demanded the tech billionaire respond to the complaint within 24 hours.

The platform had been swamped with posts containing false reports and exaggerated figures following Hamas' unprecedented attack on Israel over the weekend.

Content moderation has been a source of major criticism for Musk, since his takeover of the social media platform in 2022.

Experts fear the rise of misinformation on the web platform may provoke further real world harm.

When you declare total war on your enemy (Beheading their children, carrying off and raping their women), you better expect that your enemy is going to go total war on you in return.

Now we get to see who is better trained and prepared for total war.

The issue with western liberals is that they think everyone is going to organically get along. That's a nice idea, and it would be great...but it's not reality. Humans are violent and biased.

It would like us bombing a Windsor from Detroit with B52s. They would barely be at altitude and would have to drop. Might as well take off with bomb bay door open. Lobbing explosives on tiny neighboring terrorist state is best done with 155mm Artillery, and its much cheaper.

Gaza could look like Verdun in WWI in a week if they lined up all their M109 SP Arty and Towed Arty and had a days long FFE, at a fraction of the cost of B52s and dumb bombs.

VT is not approved on M110, if you need an airburst with it you use a ETSQ or a TISQ fuze.

The M110 projectile is based on the M107 and a post Korean war developed projectile body.   That projectile body family went out of production in the US years ago.  

The IDF used both US made and licensed domestic production of M825 series rounds.

Liberalism in general thinks people are inherently good.

Its the hardship they face... racism, capitalism, whateverism, that makes them act out.

"The deployment of aircraft carriers to the region with the aim of boosting the morale of the defeated enemy and its disillusioned soldiers reveals the weakness of the Zionist military machine despite the crimes and massacres it commits. Consequently, it requires continuous external support to sustain this temporary usurping entity.

"Therefore, we affirm that this step will not intimidate the peoples of our nation or the resistance factions that are prepared for the confrontation until final victory and complete liberation".
Be ready for stateside terrorism.


How many calls to jihad and chants of death to America did we get after our response to 9/11? How many actually materialized?

Granted in 2001 we had and intelligence apparatus that was focused on stopping such things while now they are worried about us white supremacists as the “greatest threat to our democracytm” so I guess we’ll see.

ideally you don’t use 825 for a shell mix mission, but a smart FDO can figure out the down correction to allow it to suck the air out of the target area.
