Correction !
I made a mistake.
The gun on F5 is 10,5 cm SK. C/32 in 10,5 cm M.P.L.C/32

First is this a 10.5 cm S.K.C/32U ?? What a strange shield and the two steel curved beams ??

Hello Jos,
The gun is 10,5 cm SKC/32U in 10,5 cm Ubts.L.C/32.
The frontal shield is very usefull on heavy seas for the crew of the gun, and this shield is real untypical.
For this reason ; this non-heavy frontal shield , the two curved steel beams - fixed on the lafette - is used
to fix the shied on the gun, without afectting the sighting devices.
The place for the gun is backboard of the ninesweeper class 35. Ship of this class and also 43 class, has mounted
as main armament 10,5 cm SKC/32U, generally without shield.
Best Regards,
Vladalex.
