I understand that the historical use of these words to be:
Cannon: a direct fire gun (below 45 degree line of fire)
Mortar: indirect fire gun with line offire greater than 45 degrees
Howitzer: direct and indirect fire gun.
Are these terms still used in their classical definitions or have the definitions changed somewhat?
thanks
