Sudan? Interesting. Thank You!

In 1919 Krupp was forbidden by the Versailles Treaty to make arms but took up contacts with Bofors and transferred production to Sweden. Bofors and Krupp shared their patents.

In the late 20-ies an improved type of 75 mm gun with V-tail was designed as 75 mm Field Gun L/40.

In 1934 Belgium is said to have bought 20 pcs, but I am not sure that this is correct.

Anyhow Argentina ordered 224 pcs (no:s 1-224) and Siam/Thailand 80 pcs (no:s 225-305).

When WW 2 broke out 52 guns had not been delivered and these were 1939-1940 placed under embargo by the Swedish Government and used by the Swedish Army.

Of these 24 guns were originally for Argentina. Eight of those were sold to Finland and 16 issued to 1st Bn 2nd Arty Regt. Designed m/40 A.

28 guns originally for Siam were issued to 1st Bn 7th Arty Regt and 1st Bn 22nd Arty Regt. Designed m/40 S.

Finally a new batch of 20 guns were made in 1942 and issued to 2nd Bn 22nd Arty Regt. Designed m/40.

So now the questions:

Did Argentina receive 200 guns and Siam/Thailand 52 guns?
