The 150 mm SFH18 howitzer was widely deployed by the Wehrmacht on all of
the key fronts during WW11. It was developed during the ’20s and ‘30s by
Rheinmetall and Krupp, one of the main artillery companies in Germany,
with a view to optimizing resources and technological capabilities
within the parameters imposed by the Treaty of Versailles. From 1933
onwards, Germany's rearmament planning became ever more ambitious, with
a particularly significant increase in the production of howitzers and
field cannons. The SFH18 had a simple and reliable structure with a
maximum range of 13.5 km. It could be divided into two sections and
towed by horses, or more often during the war, by half-tracks. The SFH18
had a seven-man crew. A 105 mm calibre version was developed on the same
carriage, (sK 10,5 cm)which was characterized by the longer barrel, but
was produced in few specimens as much heavier than the standard 105 mm
leFH18, which was the field artillery cannon supplied to the Wehrmacht.
