Re: RUK-museum in Hamina
Juha: Those 122 mm howitzers seem to be 09-30. Notice the curved shield, which is the key feature between 09s and 10s.
Re: RUK-museum in Hamina
Yes, Esa, it is mod 09 howitzer (09-30 or 09-40). But the real key feature is Krupp-style cradle (box)! Mod 10 (10-30 and 10-40) has Schneider-style cradle (two cylinders).Esa Muikku wrote:Juha: Those 122 mm howitzers seem to be 09-30.

Ah, yes. My bad, a typo. I checked the name plate from my photo, but somehow still managed to write the type wrongEsa Muikku wrote:Juha: Those 122 mm howitzers seem to be 09-30. Notice the curved shield, which is the key feature between 09s and 10s.
Thanks for the correction.
Re: RUK-museum in Hamina
Juha!
Have you information about markings on these howitzers? IMHO yellow painting of their wheels shows that these were training guns. Is it correct?

Re: RUK-museum in Hamina
Nr. 11 in the list is Ausf. G (not F) with reg. code Ps. 531-8 carrying the war time name Aili. It is opposite the entrance to the RUK Museum on the other side of the street.
