pika

Pique

Pika

Pika, staropol. Darda - former infantry parachute, used primarily against cavalry. Peaks reached 5.5-6 meters long. The tree was finished with a metal tip, which increased the effectiveness of the battle. The pikemen, whose main weapon was a pike, were also armed with spades or other short white weapons, due to the low utility of peaks in direct combat. During the battle, the pikemen were generally grouped into compacted quadrilaterals for greater efficiency. After the invention of the musketeers, the pikemen became shields for the formation equipped with this weapon. The peaks have been in widespread use since the Middle Ages until the seventeenth century. In the seventeenth century, the increase in the range and effectiveness of fire from rocket-style muskets and cannons and the introduction of bayonet infantry into equipment made the pegs less useful and in the eighteenth century they disappeared from battlefields. Pika, staropol. darda - dawna broń drzewcowa piechoty, używana przede wszystkim przeciwko kawalerii. Piki osiągały 5,5-6 metrów długości. Drzewce zakończone było metalowym grotem, co zwiększało skuteczność w boju. Pikinierzy, których główną broń stanowiła pika, byli również uzbrojeni w szpady lub inną krótką broń białą, ze względu na niewielką przydatność piki w bezpośrednim starciu. Podczas bitwy pikinierzy byli na ogół zgrupowani w zwarte czworoboki, co zapewniało większą efektywność działania. Po wynalezieniu muszkietu pikinierzy stali się osłoną dla formacji wyposażonej w tę broń. Piki były w powszechnym użytku od czasów średniowiecza aż do XVII wieku. W XVII wieku wzrost zasięgu oraz skuteczności ognia prowadzonego z muszkietów z zamkiem skałkowym i armat wraz z wprowadzeniem na wyposażenie piechoty bagnetów spowodowały, że piki stały się mało użyteczne i w XVIII wieku zniknęły z pól bitew.
