German Fallschirmjager Light Artillery Battery
Share / Bookmark
In 1935 Rheinmetall-Borsig AG developed a 7.5cm gun that would go on to become the standard artillery weapon of Germany's mountain infantry, the Gebirgsjager. The weapon entered service in 1938 as the 7.5cm GebG 36 and the whole gun could be broken down into eight separate loads, which became one of the primary reasons the gun was also adopted by the Fallschirmjager. Broken down, the gun could be easily loaded into a Ju-52 aircraft for transport to the combat zone once the Fallschirmjager had secured a landing area. The Fallschirmjager Light Artillery Batteries also used the 7.5cm LG 40, a light recoilless gun designed for use in airborne operations.
