Artillery Corps (Ireland)

The Artillery Corps (ARTY) (Irish: An Cór Airtléire) are the artillery corps of the Irish Army.

The Corps provides fire support to other sections of the Army.

From the Emergency (1939-1945), the Artillery Corps was organised into separate Coastal Defence, Field Artillery and Air Defence Regiments.

[5] In 2013 the Air Defence regiment also ceased to operate as a separate component,[6] and the Field Artillery regiments, known as Brigade Artillery Regiments, took over the Air Defence role.

[6] Today the Artillery Corps comprises the Artillery School, located in the Defence Forces Training Centre (DFTC) in the Curragh Camp, and two Brigade Artillery Regiments (one for each of the two Brigades of the army).
