No, tanks are not considered artillery. Artillery refers to large-caliber guns or cannons used for indirect fire support, while tanks are armored vehicles used for direct firepower and maneuverability on the battlefield.

No, Tanks are concidered a direct fire weapon. Artillery is an indirect fire weapon. That means Howitzers usually cannot see their target but rather rely on forward observers to direct their fire. Tanks can see their target. However, with advances in technology, Artillery pieces like howitzers are now able to be used as a direct fire weapons as well. This is not their primary purpose though.
