Valée system
The Valée system (French:"Système Valée") was an artillery system developed between 1825 and 1831 by the French artillery officer Sylvain Charles Valée,〔''Elements of Military Art and History'' by Nicolas Édouard Delabarre-Duparcq, p.146-147 ()〕 and officially adopted by the French Army from 1828.
==Specifications==
The Valée system consisted in various technical improvements to the Gribeauval system and Napoleon I's Year XI system. The system mainly improved the mobility of the artillery train, and simplified maintenance by standardizing limber usage and wheel size, and reducing the number of carriage types to two.〔 It also allowed for cannoniers to be able to sit on the ammunition chests of the battery itself during transportation, allowing the whole artillery train to move as fast as the infantry or cavalry.〔
Valée also improved the guns themselves slightly, by making them lighter, and with a longer range.〔''Systeme An XI and the re-design of the French Artillery.'' by Paul L Dawson BSc Hons FINS ()〕
The complete Valée system consisted in siege guns of 24 and 16 pounds (French pounds), and field guns of 12 and 8 pounds. It also included field howitzers of 24 pounds and 6 inches (Obusier de 15 cm), and a siege howitzer of 8 inches. Mountain artillery pieces were of 12 pound caliber. Mortars were of 12, 10 and 8 inches, with a 15 inches stone mortar.〔
