Why is this gun compared to the 25 Pounder field gun? edit

Latest comment: 11 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Dear wikieditors, I'm not clear why in the comparison table in this article the 25 pounder field gun/howitzer was included. It is a very different type of gun, and as such it might be better to include a british antitank gun like the 17 pounder. Please consider this suggestion. Kind regards, DPdH (talk) 06:26, 25 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

The 85-mm D-48 was a purpose built antitank gun but the D-44 was more of a general purpose weapon. As the bore diameter of the 25-Pounder was about 87-mm, it was included as a comparable field artillery piece in the table. Cheers, W. B. Wilson (talk) 12:07, 29 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
