The 76 mm mountain gun M-48 (AKA the Tito Gun), was developed after the Second World War to meet the requirements of Yugoslav People's Army mountain units, it can also be used as a field gun. ==Description== The first M-48B-1 models may have been Czech M28 mountain guns (bought by Yugoslavia in 1930s) relined from original 75mm calibre to Soviet 76mm (as used on their 76mm regimental and divisional guns), with muzzle-brake added to cope with increased recoil (also Skoda type, borrowed from M.36 AA model). There have been at least five variants of the M48. * The M-48 (B-1) has pneumatic tyres and a maximum towing speed of 60 km/h. It can also be towed by animals in tandem or disassembled into eight pack loads. * The M-48 (B-1A1-I) has the pneumatic tyres and wheels as fitted to the M48 (B-1), plus some of the features of the suspension of the M48 (B-1A2). * The M-48 (B-1A2) can also be used as a field piece but cannot be towed by animals or disassembled for pack transport. * The M-48 (B-1A2) has light alloy wheels with solid rubber tyres and modified suspension, its maximum towing speed is 30 km/h. * The final production model of the 76 mm mountain gun M48 was called the B-2 about which little is known. The ''Tun de munte calibru 76 mm model 1982'' was a Romanian built version which equipped Mountain, Paratroop and Naval infantry. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「76 mm mountain gun M48」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
