The Canon de 65 mm de montagne modèle 1906 was a small-caliber fast-firing French mountain gun .

history

The gun was manufactured in the Arsenal de Bourges and replaced the outdated Canon de 80 modèle in 1877 . The whole thing was transported in several loads, the weight of which had to be handled by soldiers or pack animals. It allowed a quick shot without deviating from the target. Its designers were guided by the technical developments of the Canon de 75 mm modèle 1897.

The guns went to the French mountain artillery - regiments during the First World War , the units at the Thessaloniki Front were preferred.

From 1920 it was replaced by the Canon de 75 de montagne modèle 1919 due to incipient ineffectiveness . In small numbers it survived with the Armée des Alpes until the beginning of the Second World War .

The model was delivered to Greece, which used it against the Italian invasion in 1940. Further guns went to Albania and between 1919 and 1921 as 65 mm armata górska Schneider Ducrest wz.1906 to Poland.

The guns captured by the German Wehrmacht were used under the designation 6.5 cm GebK 214 (f) and 6.5 cm GebK 221 (f) .

The Israel Defense Forces used an unknown number during the Palestinian War under the name Napoleonchik .

The Canon de montagne de 75 mm modèle models were developed in 1919 and 1928 to replace them.
