Stationary artillery:

Bravia AP546 250mm cannon:
Image


Bravia AP55 155mm light cannon:
Image


Bravia CAT25 120mm Light howitzer (dual-purpose, anti tank and artillery):
Image


Bravia MP234 130mm heavy mortar:
Image


Valentino T45 Heavy Howitzer 350mm:
Image


Self Propelled artillery:

Bravia AAP161 Arqueiro (archer) 155mm:

Bravia AAP63 250mm:
Image


Bravia AAP361 155mm:
Image


Rocket artillery (stationary and self propelled):

Bravia BF52 and the Bravia F42 rocket
Image


Bravia LPF109 and the Bravia MAT23 multi purpose missile (has a cluster ammunition for artillery purposes)
Image


Bravia AFM462 self propelled rocket launcher
Image

Image


Bravia AFM536 long range balistic missile launcher

Image


Many coastal bases has turret emplaced artillery like the 1m Valentino T562 cannon:
Image


I just had to stop, we have so many types of artillery.
If you ask why almost all the cannons are made by Bravia, its because Bravia is a very powerful enterprise that makes almost everything both for the military and civilians.

We use the 155mm gun on our SPA Specter System. For rocket artillery, the M270 MLRS and ATACMS systems work just fine. The M777 is the workhorse of our towed systems.

Apart from going into various infantry portable rail guns this is the closest thing in the Rubble Navy to heavy artillery. The THOR nuclear delivery platform is designed to carry 60 missiles to a launch point. Each missile can reach very high speeds and they are normally armed with a 25mt nuclear warhead although biological and chemical warheads have also been cleared for deployment via THOR. Due to the size of THOR most ships in the Rubble Navy carry only one or two, a large ground based version was considered but for obvious reasons never built.

THOR is normally used against fleets of huge size of against planets where the detonation of so many warheads in quick sucessesion can (on smaller planets) cause an extinction event.

Although I designed this I have to give credit to Hive Mind Primus. I came up with this while trying to think of a way to defeat his hive ship.
