The '''Ordnance QF 25-pounder''' was a British gun-howitzer primarily known for its role as the British Army's field artillery during World War II. It was a highly effective and versatile piece of artillery, easily relocated and deployed while providing substantial firepower at ranges of up to 12 km. Most famously, it served as the main armament of the British tracked self-propelled artillery gun, the Bishop, and its Canadian equivalent - Sexton. In naval use, the 25-pounder was occasionally mounted as an improvised weapon on vessels or in coastal defence role, notably in the defence of Malta.
 +
 
 +
The gun was introduced in [[Update "Dance of Dragons"]] along with the {{Specs-Link|fr_lcg_m_l9059}}. It features a potent high-explosive shell, but is less effective against armoured targets. Its low rate of fire and slow muzzle velocity make it challenging to use against distant enemies.

'''87.6 mm Shot It APC''' is a specialised round that lacks the ability to ignite fires or cause spalling. Instead, it can be used to target specific components deep within a vessel, such as engines. However, unless engaging a large vessel broadside, it is generally not recommended due to its minimal overall damage output.

The gun’s HE rounds are very effective at short to medium ranges, thanks to their excellent explosive filler. However, its low muzzle velocity and slow rate of fire make it difficult to consistently hit long-range targets, even larger ones. Additionally, the relatively large size of the turrets, combined with their poor 9.5 mm {{Annotation|RHA|Rolled homogeneous armour}}, makes them more vulnerable to destruction compared to most counterparts, resulting in significant crew losses.
 +
 
 +
The AP rounds are considered grossly inadequate, with their use limited to rare situations where the HE shells cannot achieve better results.

The Ordnance QF 25-pounder performs well against low-BR boats but suffers from several drawbacks. A single round is unlikely to destroy even the smallest vessels, but firing two or four rounds can bring down most motor torpedo boats. The large explosive filler also increases the likelihood of damaging multiple external components of larger vessels, such as destroyers, and setting them on fire.
 +
 
 +
This gun is best used at short to medium ranges, where the low muzzle velocity has less impact on accuracy. At longer ranges, it becomes difficult to hit manoeuvring targets, though the low muzzle velocity can be advantageous in some situations. For instance, by firing from behind cover, the shells can be lobbed over obstacles to strike otherwise unreachable targets.
 +
 
 +
The armour-piercing rounds, with their low muzzle velocity and poor penetration, are also hampered by the lack of explosive filler. As solid shot, they can only damage components they directly impact, making them highly situational in use.

The '''Ordnance QF 25-pounder''' was introduced in 1939 as a British field gun-howitzer, designed and manufactured by Royal Ordnance. Throughout its service life, the gun was produced in numerous factories across the UK, Canada, and Australia, playing a crucial role in World War II. Though it was eventually phased out of the British Army, the 25-pounder remains in use among various armed forces around the world.
 +
 
 +
Britain sought to replace both the 18-pounder field gun and the 4.5-inch howitzer (114 mm) with a single weapon capable of fulfilling both roles. The result was the 25-pounder, named for its ability to fire a 25-pound (11.3 kg) projectile. The initial version, Mark I, was introduced in late 1939 as a temporary solution, combining the barrel of the older 18-pounder with a new carriage. It saw action in the early stages of World War II, including the Battle of France. In 1940, the improved Mark II was introduced, featuring a purpose-designed barrel and carriage. The Mark II quickly became the standard artillery piece of the British Army during World War II and beyond, serving in major campaigns such as North Africa, Italy, and Western Europe.
 +
 
 +
Following the war, the 25-pounder continued to see widespread use in various global conflicts, including the Korean War and numerous colonial and post-colonial wars. It was gradually phased out of service in the British Army by the 1960s, replaced by more modern artillery systems such as the L118 towed howitzer. Remaining guns were sold to numerous countries and through continued arms sales they remain in use to this day, with Pakistani military still manufacturing munitions for the gun. Finally, many pieces were preserved in museums and are still being used in ceremonial roles across Europe.

Introducing Wiki 3.0
A pair of Ordnance QF 25pdr (87.6 mm) on L9059 in Standard camouflage

Description

The Ordnance QF 25-pounder was a British gun-howitzer primarily known for its role as the British Army's field artillery during World War II. It was a highly effective and versatile piece of artillery, easily relocated and deployed while providing substantial firepower at ranges of up to 12 km. Most famously, it served as the main armament of the British tracked self-propelled artillery gun, the Bishop, and its Canadian equivalent - Sexton. In naval use, the 25-pounder was occasionally mounted as an improvised weapon on vessels or in coastal defence role, notably in the defence of Malta.

The gun was introduced in Update "Dance of Dragons" along with the L9059. It features a potent high-explosive shell, but is less effective against armoured targets. Its low rate of fire and slow muzzle velocity make it challenging to use against distant enemies.

General info

Available ammunition

87.6 mm Mk.ID HE is the default ammunition for the gun and is highly effective against a wide range of targets, from motor torpedo boats to sub-chasers.

87.6 mm Shot It APC is a specialised round that lacks the ability to ignite fires or cause spalling. Instead, it can be used to target specific components deep within a vessel, such as engines. However, unless engaging a large vessel broadside, it is generally not recommended due to its minimal overall damage output.

The gun’s HE rounds are very effective at short to medium ranges, thanks to their excellent explosive filler. However, its low muzzle velocity and slow rate of fire make it difficult to consistently hit long-range targets, even larger ones. Additionally, the relatively large size of the turrets, combined with their poor 9.5 mm RHA, makes them more vulnerable to destruction compared to most counterparts, resulting in significant crew losses.

The AP rounds are considered grossly inadequate, with their use limited to rare situations where the HE shells cannot achieve better results.

Usage in battles

The Ordnance QF 25-pounder performs well against low-BR boats but suffers from several drawbacks. A single round is unlikely to destroy even the smallest vessels, but firing two or four rounds can bring down most motor torpedo boats. The large explosive filler also increases the likelihood of damaging multiple external components of larger vessels, such as destroyers, and setting them on fire.

This gun is best used at short to medium ranges, where the low muzzle velocity has less impact on accuracy. At longer ranges, it becomes difficult to hit manoeuvring targets, though the low muzzle velocity can be advantageous in some situations. For instance, by firing from behind cover, the shells can be lobbed over obstacles to strike otherwise unreachable targets.

The armour-piercing rounds, with their low muzzle velocity and poor penetration, are also hampered by the lack of explosive filler. As solid shot, they can only damage components they directly impact, making them highly situational in use.

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • Excellent HE shell
  • Low muzzle velocity, and thus a steep arc of fire, makes it possible to hit targets behind cover

Cons:

  • Low muzzle velocity makes it difficult to hit targets at range
  • Solid-shot APC rounds with minimal damage and poor penetration
  • Large turret with just 9.5 mm RHA armour

Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
