From Bob 5 August 2006 In the case of the US (& I suspect the Brits) no. It could be done if extreme accuracy was required. The 'firing chart' system refered to earlier in this thread made it unecessary. Each FDC had the target refrence points for all the batterys in the battalion recorded on i...

Many thanks for the information. Whether and it is known as named to 83mm a mortar. There can be it had any name " 83mm a mortar Type.....???? " Best regards Cyril Sorry I don't know the designation of the 83mm. I would guess it has a "type" designation You could try http://www....

I don't have a great deal and what I do have is 2nd hand

40 or 41mm Mortar was of chinese manufacture and was possibly designated Type 27 and had a range of 1.6km

the 45mm was probably an imported Italian Brixia

The 75mm has a range of 2.1km

The 83mm has a range of 3km

If not the 1st Pz Div figures for the number of Hummel present makes interesting reading! Cheers IIRC the orgainisation of a Hum...

To resurect a very old thread.... You are probably correct that the german fire system was a little bit slower reacting because they rarely used fire by map-coordinates. Mostly because the map material they had was too bad. The usual procedure was that the Arbeitsgeschütz (workgun) of the battery is...

Gents On 20/5/42 an kampfgruppe of 3PD supported by two regiments of 57th ID made a counter attack agaist units of the 21 & 28 Soviet armies. Does anyone have any details of the engagment?

Is there a definitive list of StuG-III deliveries to Infantry/jager and gebirgsjager divs?

Spielberger has the pz, PzGren and SS

Ive seen lists for pretty much all the panzerjagers: hetzers, marders, StuG-IV but not the StuG-III

Does such a thing exist?

Cheers
