The 152mm 45 caliber Mod.1892 is a Russian 152mm naval gun from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, the interwar period and both world wars. The weapon was developed between 1891 and 1897, and entered service in the Russian Navy in 1897. It was used by many Russian units, including the armored cruiser Admiral Kornilov or battleships of the Borodino class (Borodino, Emperor Alexander III, Kniaz Suvorov, Orze³ and S³awa). The production of the 152mm 45 caliber Mod.1892 cannon was the responsibility of, among others, the Obukhovsky Works in Saint Petersburg. The total weight of the gun was about 6 tons, and its barrel was 5.3 meters. The cannon fired projectiles weighing about 41 kilograms. Their initial speed was up to 792 m / s. The range of the maximum shot was approximately 15,500 meters. The gun on display was in fact a license and a slightly modernized version of the French 152mm Canet 152/45 fast-firing sea gun. Theoretically, the cannon could achieve a rate of fire of 15 rounds per minute, but in practice, the result of the Russian thug was 2-7 rounds per minute.

The 75mm 50 caliber Mod.1892 is a Russian 75mm naval gun from the beginning of the 20th century, the interwar period and both world wars. The weapon was developed at the turn of the 1980s and 1990s, and entered production in 1892. Incidentally, it can be added that the production of this gun lasted until 1922. The presented cannon was used by many units of the Russian Navy, including the Gangut type battleships (Gangut, Po³tawa, Petropavlovsk and Sevastopol), light cruisers of the Admiral Nakhimov and Svetlana classes, as well as Amur mine-builders. The Obukhovsky Plant in Saint Petersburg and the Perm plant were responsible for its production. The total mass of the gun was 910 kilograms and its barrel was 2.9 meters long. The cannon fired projectiles weighing up to 4.9-5 kilograms. Their initial speed reached approx. 860 m / s. The range of the maximum firing for sea targets was approximately 7,800-8,000 meters. The presented cannon was produced under the license of the French company Canet and was in fact a license version of the 152mm / 45 cannon of that company.
