35-052 1/35 scale Dutch 6 veld.

Dutch model 6 veld, Krupp 57 x 250 R. The 6 veld gun was introduced in 1899 and remained in use until 1940. During the mobilization of 1939-1940, due to the lack of anti-tank guns, these weapons were still assigned to 'fighting fighting and armored vehicles'. With the high-explosive armored shell Nº 2 (Vº 440 m/sec.) a 20 mm armor plate could be penetrated at 500 meters.
