Hello
Who knows more about these Bofors 12cm guns on Romanian destroyers?
When asking im sure you know your destroyers. As far as i found it was two of those, buildt with english plans in 1928, having 12 cm bofors. Both ended up in Russia after the war. Perhaps teh question fits better in another section of the forum.
regards

Hi Stril, tks.
Yes I am talking about the Regina maria and Regele Ferdinand.
I want to find out the type of Bofors gun. I assume that it was the Bofors built Krupp copy, the M24, similar to the ones built by Bofors for the Dutch navy....To verify that I need pics of the breeches for instance.
Greetings,
Nuyt

Loooking fror info in the book Z-Vor ! by H.Fock only tells one common thing about the dutch, swedish, and Romanian 12 cm guns. Its noted as 12 cm L/45 SK.
