Hi all,

Looks like an SK-L IIa. Does anyone have more info on that type of lafette?

Hello

Looks that the 15.5 cm K.418 (f) in Kriegsmarine service ( M.K.B. Socoa-West and Cap de la Heve )
used a M.P.L. = Marine Pivot Lafette , still the question what type of M.P.L. this was ??

Hello

The Sockellaffette as we have seen in this Topic are mostly Roman numbered , but this early type
what was only used in the Channel Island for the 10.5 cm K.331(f) in a few in open positions but
most in socalled Jägerstande a few more picture's on page 1 and 2 on this thread .
