Description
CANNONE 105/28 The Cannone da 105/28 modello 1913 is the Italian designation for the French Canon de 105 mle 1913 Schneider. As background, in the first decade of the 20th century, the French company Schneider collaborated with the Russian Putilov armaments factory as part of a deliberate plan of commercial expansion. The infusion of French capital was a decided advantage for the Russian company. It was a beautiful gun with a long barrel and conventional box trial that provided enough elevation for the 15.74 kg shell to reach a range of 12,000 meters. Often called L 13 S.
