• Cannon [r]: Sizable crew-served weapons, which fire projectiles through a tube called a barrel. ^[e]
• Circular error probability [r]: The most common metric of how close to a target a weapon will strike: the radius of a circle, centered on the mean impact point, in which half the projectiles of that weapon will hit ^[e]
• Cluster munition [r]: A military weapon, fired or dropped from another weapon, that releases smaller submunitions that cause the actual destructive effect ^[e]
• Counterbattery [r]: Defense against enemy artillery involving identifying the point of origin of hostile fire and directing lethal force against it ^[e]
• Dien Bien Phu [r]: Site in northern Vietnam of a 1954 decisive battle that soon forced France to relinquish control of colonial Indochina. ^[e]
• Guided missile [r]: A weapon that flies through air or space, under its own power, which adjusts its course to hit its target. ^[e]
• Indirect fire [r]: Weapons fire that is fired in an arc such that the projectile rises above the target elevation and descends to hit the target ^[e]
• Infantry [r]: Soldiers that directly confront the enemy, overcoming them with fire and maneuver while on foot or in specialized vehicles ^[e]
• Katyusha rocket [r]: Specifically a Soviet Second World War area bombardment unguided rocket fired from truck-mounted multiple rocket launchers; generic term for 120-130mm rockets launched either in salvos or from improvised single launchers; succeeded by GRAD rocket ^[e]
• Korean War of 1592-1598 [r]: Fought on the Korean peninsula from 1592 to 1598 between Japan and the Chinese tributary alliance (Korea, China, Ryukyus, Java, etc.), and resulted in Japanese retreat. ^[e]
