H-37 Howitzer Cannon

History and Usage
The Federationist H-37 Howitzer Cannon is one of the many artillery guns in the Northern Star Federation's arsenal. It is normally used as the standard artillery gun for bombing areas and shooting down fighters. It was commissioned in 5037 A.E, when the Defense Council decided their previous model was not performing at optimal capacity and needed an overhaul for the conflict that was to come with the Federo-Etherian War.

It fires a more brute type of projectile compared to small arms, composed of a high explosive shell that can arc, in contrast with accelerator systems used in small arms which are incapable of arching.

It was used extensively in the Federo-Etherian War for mass bombardments and run defenses, normally operated by a crew of 6: Coordinator, aiming, loading (2), firing and a commander (which normally works interchangeably with several cannons). It is still the standard howitzer for Federation forces.
