This might be offtopic, but which type of gun is resembled by this memorial near Stettin?
"Resembled" is a good word.
I think, a Soviet 76,2 mm divisional gun mod. 1942 (ZiS-3) is the closest match for the model on top (although a short barrel may resemble a152 mm howitzer mod. 1943 (D-1), but not the shield), then a 122 howitzer mod. 1937 (M-30) is depicted in the plate below.

Hi all,

I am confused with this artillery piece. 15cm sIG33 or 10.5cm leFH18 ?? Or a mixture of both ??

Yes difficult to find information on this gun. I thought only a prototype had been completed but clearly not.

Ummmhhhh.... I am not sure but I would say a Skoda design. The carriage is very similar to the Skoda M28 (Yugoslavian) AA gun although the barrel is different ...

I also thought about Skoda, although I thought it was an earlier spanish Modello 1919, but the barrel is really different

[karlik]

Maybe these are even earlier model M17 8-cm mobile gun or M17 8,35-cm mobile gun????

Hi Karlik,

Here, an image of Skoda M28. The carriage is very similar

Hi Sturm and Karlik , i think You are right, it is definitely a prototype for the M28 Skoda, only the muzzle brake is missing .

Fully agree, here is a picture of the Argentina version

Hello karlik,
Do you have more detailed information on this Spanish antiaircraft gun? I see it for the first time. Did the Spaniards have such a gun already in 1919? Thanks in advance.

Was this M28 really 50 cal long? Wasnt the M28 barrel also used for the field gun version?
