The game looked kinda like this:https://imgur.com/v2JItUK

I remember it started with a howitzer and enemy trucks coming from a far and each one passing the screen behind you losing you scores. It was a pc game between 200-2007. Kinda realistic shaders. Might be changing vehicles after some set of missions. I really want to learn what it was and play it again for nostalgia sake.

Beach Head or another entry in the series?

I don't think so, it was a bit way more modern and it consisted actual 3d like graphics with good shaders. Same series was also suggested on reddit last week I don't know if it was you :) But it started with a big howitzer as it needed to reload like once in every 7 8 seconds and it shells needed 1 2 seconds to land depending on the distance.

Maybe something here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_artillery_video_games

Thanks, thist list made me very excited at first. But it looks like this list only contains stuff like where you battle against the other player in a hot seat where you both try to calculate angle and power and throw stuff each other like ballerburg and worms, those are also stuff I love but the thing I am looking for was like a straight military game and not to be sure but artillery aspect might be even changing to something else at a point. Is there a way that I can get another list like this for military vehicle games?

Moby's game browser may give some more ideas; like this list of (currently) 81 games:

https://www.mobygames.com/game/from:2000/genre:real-time/genre:war/platform:windows/until:2007/sort:moby_score/page:1/

If nothing is found there, try some variations of the years and genres in the selection boxes.

Thanks, I tried changing the genre and checked every relevant title, currently no avail. I guess the game was too niche to be known. I will try changing the dates as well.

If it was something played online, try the 'browser' platform, it might have been a flash game. (If you used an older PC, it could be on Windows 3.x or DOS, which are other platforms to check)

It was way too advanced for that, It was installed via a setup since I got it from a pirated game seller in a cd together with condition zero,full spectrum ten hammer,mortyr 2, conflict vietnam etc. I am not sure if they were bundled games from PC gaming magazine and he extracted them from there but yeah...
