Hello!
I am sorry, have no picture - but some info:

"Die Firma Rheinmetall entwickelte 1935 den 35,5-cm Haubitzen-Mörser 1, auch M1 genannt. Die in sieben Lasten zerlegbare Waffe wog 123.500 kg. Aus dem 10.265 mm langen Rohr wurde eine 575 kg schwere Granate bei einer V0 von 570 m/s bis zu 20.850 m weit verschossen. Das Seitenrichtfeld betrug 6°, die Rohrerhöhung +45° bis +75°. Das Geschütz, das auf 52 Rädern bewegt wurde, wurde ab März 1941 nur noch bei der 5./Art.Abt. 641 verwendet. Insgesamt wurden acht Waffen hergestellt."

Hello to all :D; a little complement...............................

The 35.5 cm Mörser M1.

The 35.5 cm Mörser M1 was a German siege howitzer. It was developed by Rheinmetall before World War II to meet the German Army's request for a super-heavy howitzer. Eight were produced between 1939 and 1944. It saw service in the Battle of France and spent the rest of the war on the Eastern Front, saw action in Operation Barbarossa, the Siege of Sevastopol, the Siege of Leningrad and helped to put down the Warsaw Uprising in 1944.

The schwere Artillerie-Abteilung 641.

On July 27, 1940 the Artillerie-Batterie 810 (35.5 cm Mörser M1) was assigned to the schw. Art. Abt. 641 as its 1. Battery. In this way the artillery group was composed of two batteries equipped with the 30.5 cm Mörser and one battery with the 35.5 cm Mörser M1.
