Technical Characteristics:
The Austro-Hungarian 68-mm mountain gun model 1899 Projectile weight - 4, 7 kg, the mass of explosive charges - 0, 7 kg Muzzle velocity - 300 m / s firing range - 5000 m, the mass of guns in firing position - 315 kgAvstro-Hungarian 68-mm mountain gun model 1899 Projectile weight - 4, 7 kg, the mass of explosive charges - 0, 7 kg Muzzle velocity - 300 m / s firing range - 5000 m, the mass of guns in firing position - 315 kg
Quote from the historical reference:
"7 cm Mountain Gun M-99 was nominally in service with nearly 30 mountain batteries Austrian army. However, the gun is a synthesis of engineering decisions era smoothbore artillery and modern engineering.
Compactness of the gun and light weight (only 315 kg!) Allows you to move it along mountain trails, easy to conceal, to equip the firing points in the most unexpected places, like caves. Exceptional ease of construction means and its reliability. However, the weak ballistics, no modern sights, the primitive mechanisms of interferences did not allow this gun on an equal footing to compete with more modern designs. "
