Wikipedia notes that weapons are used to "gain a tactical, strategic, material, or mental advantage over an adversary or enemy target," an advantage that only exists once a force actually fields the weapon. Browsing this way collects every weapon system operated by the same force.FactsOperatorSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonEraWell-attested500 to 1499 CE 1OperatorFilter Results14 entriesWeapon ClassAllBow / Crossbow (1)Chain / Flail Weapon (1)Field Obstacle / Trap (1)Flamethrower / Incendiary Weapon (1)Howitzer / Artillery (1)Rifle (1)Shield / Armor (1)Siege Engine (1)Sword / Polearm / Bladed (11)Weapon FamilyAllMedieval Bows and Crossbows (1)Medieval Chain and Flexible Weapons (1)Medieval Daggers (2)Medieval Incendiary and Early Gunpowder Weapons (3)Medieval Maces, Axes and Striking Weapons (3)Medieval Polearms (4)Medieval Siege Engines and Cannon (2)Medieval Swords and Sabres (5)Introduced EraAll0 (1)300 (1)650 (1)672 (1)794 (1)900 (3)950 (2)1146 (1)1150 (1)1185 (1)1187 (1)1288 (1)1300 (1)1314 (1)1315 (1)1334 (1)1336 (1)1400 (1)1450 (2)1453 (1)CaliberAll918mm (1)Service StatusAllIn Service (1)Retired (12)Country of OriginAllGreece (1)India (1)Japan (3)Ottoman Empire (1)Wars Used InAllAlbigensian Crusade (1)Anglo-Afghan Wars (1)Crusades (1)English Civil War (1)Falklands War (1)Genpei War (3)Great Northern War (1)Hundred Years' War (1)Kargil War (1)Nine Years' War (1)Norman Conquest (1)Wars of Scottish Independence (1)World War I (1)World War II (2)PersonnelAll135 (1)StatusAllActive (1)Disbanded (2)Show ResultsBrowseCompareArmy of the Ethiopian EmpireOperator1 entryBritish ArmyOperator1 entryByzantine ArmyOperator2 entriesContinental ArmyOperator1 entryImperial Japanese ArmyOperator1 entryImperial Japanese NavyOperator1 entryMamluksOperator2 entriesMongol ArmyOperator1 entryOttoman ArmyOperator1 entryPolish Winged HussarsOperator1 entrySamuraiOperator18 entriesStreltsyOperator1 entrySwiss GuardOperator1 entryVarangian GuardOperator1 entrySources1.
