Pictured is what I think is a 1939 dated Russian 152mm case from one of the numerous 152mm gun-howitzers in use at the time. It is shown alongside a German sFH-18 15cm case for comparison. The Russian case measures 545mm with a rim diameter of 170mm, which fits with the postwar M55 gun. However, I am sure of the 1939 date as it is stamped on both the case and primer. Could anybody offer a view as to which WW2 howitzer used this case?
