The United States has helped equip Ukrainian forces with artillery, supplying 90 howitzers – enough to equip five battalions.

The M-777 Howitzer is a 155mm piece of artillery known for its accuracy and long-range fire.

Russia also has howitzers, the Msta-B Howitzer has a maximum range of 18 miles, making them vulnerable to counter bombardment.
