... and again Romanian 4,7cm Bohler in action with one more type of wheels (?). The photo was taken in east front on April 26, 1942 on the shores of the Azov Sea.

Nice find, Jos !

Isn't these guns with muzzle brakes and pneumatic tires the Dutch version 47/32 K.n.36 i.e. here 4,7 cm Pak 187(h)?

The photo shows one of the ten 47 PstK/35 (47-mm antitank-gun model 1935) antitank-guns, which Finland bought from Switzerland during Winter War (Nov 1939 - March 1940). These guns were Austrian-manufactured.

Hi Markus,
They do not look like Dutch soldiers.
Most houses (of the Dutch barracs) have different design features.
