How To Repair Cannons in Holdfast: Nations At War
The only way that you can repair artillery pieces like cannons, mortars, swivel guns, rocket launchers, and long guns on the battlefield is by using the Sapper class.
The Sapper class carries a hammer and uses that to repair damaged artillery back to full health. This includes field guns that have taken enemy shots or gotten wrecked in combat.

To repair a cannon, simply pick the Sapper support slot when spawning. Equip the hammer by pressing Q (default key). Approach the broken artillery piece, then strike it with the hammer until its health bar fills back up.
That’s it. The game treats artillery and defenses the same in this mechanic, so if you want to repair one, simply follow the steps above.
It’s worth mentioning that cannons that stay damaged long enough will simply respawn back at their base spawn point after a timer if no one repairs them.
This applies to moveable field guns too. While you can repair them, they won’t stay wrecked forever if you stand around doing nothing.
