Napoleon and large wheels

The use of large-wheeled field carriages is attributed to Napoleon, but surely such carriages were in use earlier in the 18th century?

155mm and 152mm the global standards?

I should expect there to be are vast, vast numbers of ex-Soviet 122mm artillery pieces of all types in use around the world, probably considerably outnumbering the 152mm, 155mm, and 105mm pieces combined. Are we certain about this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.224.244.181 (talk) 03:07, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
