Swedish artillery
Swedish AA gun id.
Could you please help to identifiy an AA gun that looks like a Finnish 76 ItK/28 B at Käppalaställningen?
See a lot of photos here: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Categ ... A4llningen
Although the breech has 1926 markings, some sources say it's Luftvärnskanonen m/30: http://www.civilforsvar.se/Lidingobilder.htm

It's shipborne type gun as I know but paper near in museum says: De första luftvärnskanonerna vid Kustartilleriet. = The first anti-aircraft gun model at the Coast Artillery Anybody can explain it?John T wrote: 75mm AA gun model 1915 (capital M in Model designates Navy) 9 build
initially on Sverige class coastal defence ships (2 aboard and 1 reserve for each ship)

And one more question. One of these has serial number 9, and the second is - ?
Thanks

Re: Swedish artillery
Hi!
I found on the Internet 2 schemes of Swedish Pansarvärnskanonvagn m/43
signed Pvkv m/43 with 75mm L60
signed Pvkv m/43 with regular later verison 75mm L50,5 gun
http://forum.worldoftanks.com/index.php ... e__st__240
Tell me please Pvkv m/43 with 75mm L60 is real or is from alternative history?

Re: Swedish artillery
AFAIK the helmets are Swedish m21s and the gaiters are also consistent with Swedish use.

Thank you for your anmswer, ludvig,
I have these other two images on my computer of a very similar 80mm Bofors static AA gun used by KNIL forces, but I can see some differences: different situation of dial pointers and handwheels,....
Do you know the designation of this other model ??
