The Schwerer Gustav Gun - WWII Series
Schwerer Gustav was the name of a German 31.5 in. railway gun. It was developed
in the late 1930s by Krupp as siege artillery for the explicit purpose of
destroying the main forts of the French Maginot Line, the strongest
fortifications then in existence. The fully assembled gun weighed nearly 1,350
tonnes, and could fire shells weighing seven tonnes to a range of 29 miles. 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. Gustav was later employed in the Soviet Union at the
siege of Sevastopol during Operation Barbarossa, where among other things, it
destroyed a munitions depot buried in the bedrock under a bay. The gun was moved
to Leningrad, and may have been intended to be used in the Warsaw Uprising like
other German heavy siege pieces, but the rebellion was crushed before it could be
prepared to fire. Gustav was destroyed by the Germans near the end of the war in
1945 to avoid capture by the Red Army.
It was the largest-calibre rifled weapon ever used in combat, the heaviest mobile
artillery piece ever built in terms of overall weight, and fired the heaviest
shells of any artillery piece. It is only surpassed in calibre by the unused
British Mallet's Mortar and the American Little David bomb-testing mortar both 36
inch and 914 mm.
