Military historians speak of the difference between shock warfare (striking the enemy with weapons like
swords, lances, or axes) and projectile warfare (shooting or throwing arrows, javelins, and bullets).
Judging from the armor, which kind of warfare was fought by samurai and knights? In each case,
explain your thinking.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Shock warfare: knights were better suited because their armor allowed the knight to ride up to his enemy and make a direct hit. It DIDN’T allow for the knight to throw things at his enemy because of its rigidness.

Projectile warfare: samurai were better suited because their armor had the right arm free which allowed the warrior to THROW things at his enemy or use his bow & arrow.

Judging from the armor, the kind of warfare fought by Samurai and Knights was projectile warfare (shooting or throwing arrows, javelins, and bullets) instead of shock warfare.

Key Differences and Similarities

Projectile warfare relied on long-range weapons like arrows, javelins, and bullets while fighting on horseback. Both the Samurai and Knights were very loyal to their masters. However, the Samurai protected the master first while the Knights protected the ladies and their children first.  Shock warfare relied on short-range weapons like swords, lances, and axes.

Thus, based on the armor used by the Samurai and the Knights, the kind of warfare they fought was projectile warfare.
