An artillery configured to propel a projectile, the artillery comprising a firing mechanism, a barrel, and a helical electromagnetic recoil mechanism. The firing mechanism fires the projectile in a first direction toward a target. The barrel has an open-ended bore that guides the projectile in the first direction. The helical electromagnetic counter recoil mechanism includes an electrical energy source, a stator, and a helical electromagnetic armature. The electrical energy source provides electrical energy when the firing mechanism fires the projectile. The stator and armature generate an electromagnetic force via the electrical energy. The helical electromagnetic armature moves in a second direction opposite the first direction via the electromagnetic force when the firing mechanism fires the projectile in the first direction to minimize recoil of the artillery.
