Hola!

@ tommy 303.
Thank you for your reply!
I really don´t knew,that in 1934 there were constructiondrawings for 4 different calibers.
The date of Erich Readers decision to take the 38cm guns for the Bismarck,confused me a bit.
Sorry.

Since the nineteen century the germans used this designation. They don´t changed it until the end of WW2. Where did you have the info...

Hola! This is an old topic,but I wonder,why the most sources called the german gun "38cm SK L52 C34"? In 1934 the germans wanted to mount a 33cm (13 inch)gun for the Bismarck. Early in 1935 they decided to take a 35cm gun. The 09.05.1935 was the day,in which admiral Erich Reader(the later ...
