MCA35001 - Russian 152mm/45 Canet Gun on Pedestal Mount, 1/35
This gun was manufactured in France in the early 1890's by the French designer Canet. Together with a 12 cm/45 (4.7") gun, it was shown to a Russian delegation in 1891. By using fixed ammunition, the French were able to achieve an amazing rate of fire of 12 rpm for the 12 cm/45 and 10 rpm for the 6"/45 (15.2 cm). A license was quickly purchased and production in Russia began in 1892 at the Obukhov factory. Between 1897 and 1901 some 219 of the 6" (15.2 cm) guns were built.
