3.7 cm SK C/30 twin mount - 37x380mmR

The 3.7 cm SK C/30 was a medium anti-air cannon of Germany during the 1930s and into World War II. It was used in twin mounts aboard virtually every Kriegsmarine surface vessel, and was also used in single mounts on some submarines and other smaller ships. Although it had a notably above-average muzzle velocity (especially valuable in an anti-air weapon), unlike virtually all other nations' weapons of around this size which were nearly universally autocannons, it was a single-shot breech-loaded weapon, giving it a comparatively abysmal rate of fire.
