Description
The 105 mm SK C/33 AA is a German dual-purpose naval gun, designed in 1933 and introduced in 1935. It saw wide use, from battleships and (unfinished) aircraft carriers, through coastal vessels to submarines. After the Second World War, it also saw use in the French and Italian navies. A good choice of ammunition, along with a high rate of fire, makes it a capable and versatile gun, able to deal with most of the targets it might reasonably be expected to engage.
