This is the surprising backstory of the howitzer cannon – an artillery weapon that has dominated battlefields for hundreds of years, from Napoleon to Ukraine, and forever changed the economics of war. But this isn't just the story of a big gun.

As Ukraine battles ammunition shortages, in his new podcast Ed Conway investigates what happens when a modern army runs out of shells, and why NATO struggled to replace them.

From forgotten chemical factories in the First World War to today's fragile global supply chains, Ed reveals how manufacturing, trade and industrial capacity have become just as important as military strategy.

Featuring frontline reporting from Ukraine and conversations with leading military experts, this episode asks a bigger question: if Britain ever had to defend itself, could it still make the things it needs to fight?

This is Stuff Matters with Ed Conway. What do the objects around us say about the world? In this new podcast, Ed takes an object, cracks it open and reveals the world shaping forces hidden inside. In this sneak preview, Ed begins his journey of uncovering the howitzers' story.

Popis podcastu

Russia knows our weaknesses. But do you?    A major five-part series from Sky News and Tortoise which imagines how a Russian attack on the UK could play out – and invites real-life former ministers, military chiefs and other experts to figure out how to defend the country.    Written and presented by Sky News' security and defence editor, Deborah Haynes. This is Deborah's second podcast series for Sky News. In her first series, Into The Grey Zone, Deborah explores the murky evolution of warfare. What do assassinations, cyber hacks and disinformation have in common? They're all weapons used by states against each other in a grey zone of harm under the threshold of war, but could be just as dangerous if ignored.
