Hi Sturm,

I could be wrong, but I would think that this is a 24cm Haubitze. The barrel does not here seem to be as long as that of the 21cm k39. What do you guys think?

Best,

Nezar

Uwe,

The picture shows a 21 cm K Skoda for sure, not a 24 cm H(t).

Hi all,

See this video link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3Esb4lkDXg
I am not sure about the gun that appears between minute 1:48 and 1:57. 21cm Br-17 ??

There is a mix of images from World War II with other more modern.

Hello, I agree with you (compare http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3Esb4lkDXg#t=115 with http://www.szst.ru/library/artmuseum/244_250.php and http://www.groll.ru/wehr/br-17-04.html). BTW, didn't know Br-17 was bag-loaded. Thanks!

Thank you, Ilya

Do you know which soviet artillery units used the 21cm Br-17 gun and where/when was used ?
