📋 About This Mod
The howitzer was first produced under the designation 155mm Howitzer M1, in the 60's it was changed to M114 155mm Howitzer. The gun in this model is on the M1A1 carriage. You can get more information from the technical manual.

Note, the following video is a bit out-of-date in the sense it was made before the animation started working. That's the only difference, everything else is the same.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust: 8,967 endorsements and 342k downloads show it's a go-to for artillery fans
- Adds a historically accurate howitzer that fits the post-war aesthetic better than the vanilla mortar
- Comes with extra props (shells and memorial) to enhance your settlement's military vibe
⚠️ Cons

For Fallout 4 settlement builders who want a more authentic artillery piece and enjoy military-themed builds. If you're a modder looking for a reliable, community-approved asset, this is a solid pick. Skip if you prefer vanilla aesthetics or want a mod that adds new functionality rather than replacing existing items.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or NMM, install this mod and let it overwrite the vanilla mortar files — no extra setup needed.
- Place the howitzer in your settlement and assign a settler to it to use it as artillery, just like the vanilla mortar.
- Check your load order: since it replaces a vanilla item, it should load after any mods that alter the mortar or settlement objects.
