K5(E) 28 cm – Historical Background:
The 28 cm K5(E) railway guns were developed by the Krupp conglomerate in the 1930s and served to support German artillery operations on the frontlines. They were mainly used during the campaigns in France, Italy, on the Eastern Front, and during the siege of Anzio in 1944, where the “Leopold” model became notorious as a terror of the Allies. The operational period of this weapon was during World War II, from 1940 to 1945. The firing range reached up to 62 km with special rocket-assisted ammunition, making them some of the most powerful and precise railway guns of their time.
