Dear sirs, let me introduce me shortly; I am a 42 year old Dutchman who is interested in the armed forces of the smaller european nations like Denmark, Finland Luxembourg, Eire and all the others. I have this crazy hobby for more than 25 years.
I would like to ask you for some help. I am trying to get some information about the Irish artillery, both field, anti aircraft and coastal.
As far as I have found out the Irish army had following artillery pieces:
- Vickers 83,8 mm Mk IV, 18 pndr,
- Vickers 114 mm Mk 1, 4,5" howitzer
- Vickers 87,6 mm Mk I, 25 pndr
- Bofors L/60 (M36) 40 mm A.A.,
- Bofors L/70 (M48) 40 mm A.A.
- heavy coastal art at Cork and Dublin ()
Who can confirm this and/or give me more information, number of pieces in use, etc.
Also photographs or other information is very welcome, please give me some help.
greetings!!
