Any reason no one has used Artillery in assassination?

I mean you do not need to be close by, and with GPS shells you have pin point accuracy.

Any?

It has been done in the sand pit, but bombs are more reliable because of greater charge. Excalibur is only useful in a situation where the blast effect of a 250lb is too high for the accepted level of collateral damage.

Can't confirm kill. Same with bombs. That's why you hear of these terrorist killed dozens of times but keep popping up.

These aren't actually in service with anyone. Just trials that aren't really that good.

That's not true. GPS guided 155 is in service with several armies.

Practicality. Might work for the Norks, where they have big guns within range of desirable targets (even then, it may kick off a war). For anyone else, hard to get in a position to do it effectively, as the area would be a known war zone, and high value targets would be cautious of artillery strikes.

The IRA attacked 10 Downing Street with mortars once.

You could bring it into a nation inside of a 18 wheeler.

On a not really related note, I wonder how many shells you could fire before the first one hits the ground, anyone with some experience with mortars?

What if they're clones? Like ISIS found something in the desert from long ago, and activated an immortal engine. So now every time one of them dies, the just get close ed back?

Depends on the gun and type of ordinance I would guess. And skill of the crew.

The PzH2000 is capable of MRSI (Multiple rounds, simultaneous impact) (No clue how many rounds can get on at the same time, I assume 3-5)

3 rounds in 9sec
10rds in 56sec

Depending on barrel heat, sustained fire rate of between 10-13 rounds per minute

It's fucking awesome

Are the gun crew all strongmen? That's a 40kg shell being loaded every 5 seconds

The IRA tried to mortar the PM in the 80s if I recall correctly. They ended up shelling Downing Street gardens instead.
