If you are wandering about how these guns ended up in Belgrade (Rumania is one of few Axis countries not involved at all in fighting on Yugoslav territory 1941-45), you should know that USSR in 1945-46 presented its communist-state-ally Yugoslavia with lot of captured equipment.

Hi All

The Rumanian gun could also delebered from the Skoda
factory because it was kept in service after the occupation .

Yes, I'm happy - but I don't like "to end too quick"

This is info I got from Pavel Novak - Skoda Interwar exports:
(Btw, he is looking for confirmation of this list + more data for eventual new entries)

Yugoslavia

- 10.5 cm "J" field gun (= vz. 35 in CZ army) -1937
- 10 cm "FE" field howitzer - 1929
- 15 cm "K2" field howitzer - 1937 - 1939
- 7.5 cm "CD" mountain gun - about 1930 - 1939 (7,5 cm GebK 285)
(vz.14/19 is missing! But this is "another story", worth of new topic - "German sales of Czech beute guns")

Romania
- 10 cm "FE1" field howitzer - 1931 - 1935
- 10 cm "F2" field howitzer - 1937 - 1939 and during ww2
- 10 cm "H4" field howitzer - during ww2

- 7.5 cm "C6" mountain gun - 1938+

Iran

)

(1938?)

Turkey
- 15 cm "K1" field howitzer - ? 1932+ ? - 1936
- ??? 10 cm mountain howitzer 1930 - 1939 ??? (there are some misterious "105mm Skoda M38" howitzers, still in use for "training"!)
