A type of Austro-Hungarian anti-aircraft gun: 8 cm M.14 R Lfa-Kn. (m.M.) für 50º.


(Austro-Hungarian Anti-Aircraft Gun System, WWI)

8 cm M.14 R Lfa-Kn. (mit Mittelpivot) für 50º Erhöhung.

*************

An Austro-Hungarian 8-cm M.14 Lfa-Kn. (with center pivot) for 50º elevation Anti-Aircraft Gun, mounted on a fixed position. 

This is an A-H adaptation of the Russian 76.2-mm L/30 Field Gun Putilov M1902, for anti-aircraft shooting, in the manner of the German Rheinmetall of 1915: 
the “7,62-cm Ortsfeste Flak L/30 (russ 02)”.

NOTES:

(1)- Lfa-Kn.= Anti-Aircraft Gun

(2) - 76.2-mm = 8-cm. In the Austro-Hungarian artillery nomenclature the calibers of the cannons containing decimals, as in this case: 76.2-mm or what is the same 7.62-cm, were described, rounding the caliber number with decimals to the number upper whole. In this case the resulting whole number would be 8-cm.

8 cm M.14 R Lfa-Kn. (mit Mittelpivot) für 50º Erhöhung.

Un cañón antiaéreo austro-húngaro 8-cm M.14 Lfa-Kn. (con pivote central) para 50º de elevación, montado en una posición fija. 

Ésta era una adaptación austro-húngara, del cañón de artillería de campaña ruso de 76,2-mm L/30 Putilov M1902, para el tiro antiaéreo, a la manera del Rheinmetall alemán de 1915: 
el "7,62 cm Ortsfeste Flak L/30 (russ 02)".

NOTAS: 

(1)-  Lfa-Kn.= Abreviatura austro-húngara de Cañón Antiaéreo.

 (2)- 76.2-mm = 8-cm. En la nomenclatura artillera austro-húngara los calibres de los cañones que contenían decimales, como en este caso: 76,2-mm o lo que es lo mismo 7,62-cm, eran descritos, redondeando el número del calibre con decimales al número entero superior. En este caso el número entero resultante seria el de 8-cm.
