Modern cannons

     (Please forgive me I could not find all of the information for this section that I had hoped to find.)Now days you do not see very many cannons in war but that is becaus you do not reconize them.

     Now days when you see cannons you just barley reconize them because they are disguised. Most cannons now are built onto tanks  or they are automatic or hand held.( cannons dont look much like they used to)

      The military vehicle "Tank" was invented by the British for World War I as a way of breaking the deadlock of trench warfare. The idea was to take the tracked farm vehicle able to move in muddy and rough terrain (including crossing trenches) and put an armored cage on it. The mis-name "tank" came from telling the workers on these secret armored vehicles that they were making "water tanks." Tanks were deployed during the Battle of the Somme in 1916 as a surprise weapon.
