Notes on Meaning
- The term "sơn pháo" is a specialized military term. The first element "sơn" (山 - mountain) specifies the operational environment, while "pháo" (炮 - cannon, artillery) denotes the weapon type. It is not a general term for any cannon in the mountains but specifically refers to artillery systems designed with features like pack transport, high elevation angles, and mobility for rugged terrain.
