Derivatives and designations
After Italy surrendered Germany seized as many as they could and a factory in Northern Italy continued to produce a small number for the German Army. The carriage was split trail with four wheels which raised from the ground for firing and the gun was trunnioned under the breech to allow for maximum recoil and elevation.
21 cm 39.M: Hungarian designation for guns purchased from Italy. 21 cm 40.M: Hungarian-produced version featuring carriage modifications. 21 cm 41.M: Final Hungarian-produced version which entered production in 1943. 21 cm Haubitze 520(i): German designation for guns captured after the Italian surrender in 1943 and kept in production until the end of the war.
