Photos of Skoda 15cm M-1928 gun
Does anyone have high quality photos of the Skoda 15cm M-1928 siege gun used by Romania and Yugoslavia? The one usually seen (in Chamberlain's Fact Files: Heavy Artillery of World War Two) is of relatively poor quality. Also does anyone know the quantities exported to these two countries?

Hi all,
According to my information the only user of this heavy gun was Yugoslavia, which bought 20 or 22 guns.

Anyone has the specs. for this guns? I have 56kg for the round which is a very heavy round if true and 23km range. I also don't have any weight data.
Re: re: Photos of Skoda 15cm M-1928 gun
So the earlier reports that Romania may have once had a few of these guns are incorrect?
Re: re: Photos of Skoda 15cm M-1928 gun
Hi SASH155,
According to my information, Romania had no that gun. Only Yugoslavia
