In the past fifteen years Soviet ground forces have dramatically
increased their conventional military power to the point where they
have become the most heavily armed force in the world. The United
States Army has responded to these increases in many respects, but
significant gaps still remain. As in so many categories of
conventional military power, the Soviet Army possesses a dramatic
numerical superiority in artillery. This thesis examines the
problems the United States Army artillery faces in defeating Soviet
Army artillery in a non-nuclear environment. Examined in depth are
each countries' artillery weapons, organizations, and tactics, from
both an overall perspective and in a European scenario. The general
conclusion of this study is that there are numerous solvable
problems in the United States Army artillery system. These problems
are identified and general recommendations are made in the areas of
artillery weapons development, organization, and tactics.
