I think a better yardstick for a thread like this would be vehicles and trailers that are still on the books and used as vehicles. Problem with howitzers and guns are they tend to stick around in a ceremonial use forever.
To that end, I saw a number of M101 3/4 ton trailers in the range control compound at Connought the other week. I did not go close enough to them to tell if they were 50s or late 60s production. How these things manage to not get disposed of on retirement of a fleet is beyond me.
