Hello Sturm78 ,
Your FC phots from 21 . Feb :

Svedish use M /39 . Used for conrol of the 40 mm L/60 Bofors .

2) AA - predictor for heavy AA Guns , type M /33 from Papello ( Estonia )
Only five units in use , two were used for two AA - batteries at Gotland

What about you explaining where you found the picture ?
Isn't it a waste of time for me to google picture search when you could have provided the link ?

I think it is 7,5 cm luftvärnskanon m/1918. See http://digitaltmuseum.se/011024418562/7 ... non-m-1918 for example.
