Gebirgsprotze_40_02

 

 

The Gebirgsprotze - mountain limber - 40 was used to move the partial loads of the 10.5 cm Gebirgshaubitze 40. Depending on the used towing vehicle and the terrain, the Unterlafette - lower gun carriage - with inserted Rohr - gun barrel - but without the Lafettenholme - outriggers - could be towed by using the Gebirgsprotze 40. The image illustrates the Gebirgsprotze 40 with suspended gun barrel. (Image from technical manual)

In the case of heavier terrain, the gun barrel with the Verschluss - breech block - had to be transported seperately. Then the Gebirgsprotze 40 was used as Rohrkarren - barrel cart. (Image from technical manual)
