Remarks
: Howitzer à tir accéléré, equipped with an elastic spade, which
allowed the howitzer to come back into the firing position, after having
recoiled, by means trail springs. In 1903 it was equipped with the “Ghenea” pedestal
sight, used for direct and indirect laying. It was not fitted for an
independent line of sight. In |
