The Army tested its US-made M110 self-propelled howitzers on Wednesday. These can lob up to three hefty 203 millimeter shells every two minutes. They worked on coordination using a decentralized command structure. Five days of Joint Defense Exercises are practicing countering forces approaching Taiwan by air and sea ahead of the larger annual Han Kuang exercises in August.
