I need help for Id. gun. Part 2
Permalink   

Hi all

I start a new thread for gun identification. It is the continuation of a previous thread about the same theme: See http://www.activeboard.com/forum.spark?aBID=63528&p=3&topicID=29648199&page=2

I will start with this german AA gun:

I think 7.7cm Krupp BAK M.1914 automobile (Kraftwagen) version or 7.7cm Rheinmetall BaK confuse

Have anybody more information about these AA guns? Specifications, number manufactured, .....  


Image from Ebay
Thanks in advance. Sturm78

.. confirmed,   and previous pic is the Daimler M1914 platform truck with a Rheinmetall 7,7cm BAK.  These systems were commonly refered to as K-Flak. ( kraftwagen mit fleiger abwehr kanone )

Hi 28juni14,

I think that the AA gun of my image poste on 25 March is a Krupp 7.7cm BAK (not Rheinmetall).

Here an image that I found on Ebay showing a german truck (I guess Daimler M1914 platform truck) with a AA gun: I think Rheinmetall 7.7cm BAK.
You can clearly see the diffrences between both guns.

The other image (from Ebay) shows a very rare (for me) german one-axle trailer with a Rheinmetall 7.7cm BAK and two AA MGs (I think a MG08 and a captured Lewis)confuse

Regards Sturm78

Hallo Sturm78!

Yes,  you are quite correct;  I misidentified the system in your original photo.

In addition to the enclosed recoil houseing of the Krupp piece,  the Daimler truck is further identifed by the rear fenders & crew platform during action mode.   These fenders were removed on the Ehrhardt version to allow the platform to be lowered.

Fighting around Hangkow (now Wuhan) occurred in 1938. China had been a republic since 1911 so the troops couldn't have been Chinese. The image is of a Type 38 field gun of the IJA (Imperial Japanese Army). The Type 38 was a licence built 75mm Krupp field gun. Some 2000 of these were built 1906-1914 or so at the Osaka Artillery Arsenal. The gun was used throughout WW2 since the 75mm Type 90 and 95 field guns never completely replaced it. There are some survivors in the US, Canada(*) and Australia - the image is a Type 38 at Modesto, Calif.

Regards,

Charlie

* - I was alerted to the Type 38 in Canada by PDA - the plaque beside the gun says it
was found buried in a sand dune by Canadian troops during the Korean War complete with limber.

It's a 75mm Cannone da 75/27 mod.06 - licence built Krupp M1906 field gun.
There's an article on this gun in the Landships site.
