Curiosity Question on Land Based Towed/SP indirect use of non Chemical/HE she...

The_Chieftain: To answer the question posed (unlike, apparently the other posts), I must admit to being at a loss to think of any occasion in which artillery engaged point targets with indirect fire firing AP. Even semi-indirect (think of it as self-spotting) is HE/WP that I can think of. Firing AP in direct fire was not unusual, either at fortifications or armor.   i’ve been around long enough to know better than to categorically say “it has never been done”, but as far as I am aware, it has never been done.
