'Sirex[SWE wrote:[MoW];1443841']Yes welcome to modern warfare, ww2 != modernwarfare.
In modern warfare we use submunitions that were developed in the 80ties.
The shell contains severeal smaller submunitions that part of and explode indivudally, allowing a greater area to be saturated and helps defeat cover. Let's say you are behind a big rock and the artillery old shell goes off 50 in front of you then you are safe. But if there are sevearl small bombs that goes of over the area your directional cover will be nullified. Also with various weapons sysems that can fire faster and great range, like MLRS, submuniton allows for much bigger areas to be saturated.
- Dumb Bombs

Here is a good source of what i mean that does not take up the later high tech anti-armour rounds, but just the orginal concept of submunitions.
U.S. M39 Sub-Munition for Artillery - Inert-Ord.Net

High explosive submunitions from ordinary artillery are capable of defeating APC/IFV. And Heat seaking submunition that can be fires from even mortars can defeat tanks.
