105/28 howitzer

Happy Easter everyone,

My guess is for the 105/28 howitzer.

"The 105/28 howitzer was a World War One vintage gun of French design (Canon de 105 mle 1913 Schneider or L13 S); originally starting life as a design on the drafting board of the Russian Putilov Armaments factory. It proved a popular design and was exported to various countries, Italy among them.
It remained a common weapon during World War Two and continued in Italian service until 1943 seeing action on both the African and Russian fronts."

Cheers

Re: 105/28 howitzer

I wish it was the 105mm Schneider or one of its derivatives. But I never came across wheels looking like the ones in the image. :question:

The Type 96 15 cm howitzer had a split trail but the Strelets photo seems to show rather a box trail. :exclamation:

Happy holidays everone!

Re: 105/28 howitzer

Schnieder seems good but I am stuck for the scale as the barrel looks too slim. Some 75s had similar wheels.
how about this F of W for a near match 105/28

Re Strelets please tell us, I am very curious now so many of us are puzzled ?

please let us in on the secret ? what gun is it ?
