10,5 cm SKL/45 in MPLC/12, as far as I can see. Jul guns were without shields.

Agree, a closer look reveals a somewhat smaller Rohrblende and a small increase of the outer diameter of the foremost part of the barrel, i.e. 10,5 cm SKL/45 in MPLC/06.

Hi Sturm
Nice find, again.
It is a twin water cooled mount for the Bofors, may be Danish or Dutch (or even captured British). It not a Hazemeyer. The Dutch managed to get their experimental mount to Britain in 1940 on board minelayer Willem van der Zaan and they continued to work with the British to develpo a workable system. The Royal Navy Hazemeyer had a Type 282 radar mounted on a frame above the gun mounting. There was also a the analog computer and the rangefinder on the mounting. See http://www.navweaps.com/Weapons/WNUS_4c ... 2_pics.htm for a photo of a Hazemeyer mounting, about half way down.
