Hello Everyone:
I'm searching for images or information on German 7,5cmL24 Canister Ammunition (Karttschen) used by KwK and/or Stuk cannons (tank and assault gun). I came across a very brief snippet in a German 75mmL24 Merkblatt for a canister cartridge. But -- unlike other rounds detalied in typical Merkblatt -- there is zero detail provided for the canister round.
No canister round appears on Dattenblatte for the 7,5cmL24, nor does it appear in WWII Gechoringbuch for the 7,5cmL24 (Stuk or KwK). It does not seem to appear in any wartime or post-war studies produced by the USA or UK on German ammunition and Ordnance.
Does anyone know if the Germans actually produced a canister round for the 75mmL24 during WWII?
Thanks much for any information on this subject.
Best Regards
Marty
