#Schwerer Gustav #Dora #Gun was a #German 80 cm #railway gun. It was developed in the late 1930s by Krupp in Darłowo as siege artillery for the explicit purpose of destroying the main #forts of the #French Maginot Line, the strongest fortifications in existence at the time. The fully assembled gun weighed nearly 1,350 tonnes, and could fire shells weighing seven tonnes to a range of 47 kilometres. • The gun was designed in preparation for the #Battle of France, but was not ready for action when the battle began, and in any case the Wehrmacht's Blitzkrieg offensive through #Belgium rapidly outflanked and isolated the Maginot Line's static defenses, eventually forcing the French to surrender and making their destruction unnecessary. • -------------------------- • Welcome to World Accord – a huge library of the best, the most interesting and engaging videos.
