military equipment and tactics then  Its hard to just talk about a weapon without talking about how it is used      A threelevel abstraction is required here  We have the history and strategy which are inseparable and should be discussed in articles on each war or conflict  Thats the most abstract  Then we need the least abstract military equipment and tactics level with articles like military technology during the Napoleonic wars and so forth to make it clear how conflicts were conducted using this stuff  this should focus on the actual tactical combat engagements how they affected outcomes etc  And for those wars that resulted in a great deal of change to military technology either because they were very long like the Hundred Years War or very intense like WWI or WWII we should discuss technological escalation as a separate topic more abstract than the equipment and tactics less abstract than history and strategy  See technological escalation during WWI for an example  this can be done for WWII US Civil War Napeolonic wars at least as well and maybe also for the Cold War  This gets into the mechanics of how things changed how they thought etc and really isnt the same topic as either historystrategy or equipmenttactics for the guys on the ground using  the equipment to perform the tactics
