Little is known about this weapon, which was found by US forces in a German testing ground. It is believed that it was a smooth bore cannon similar to the PAW 600 that had to shoot 3 kg shell with hollow charge. He used the carriage of sFH 18 (of the late style). It is not clear the purpose of that weapon because the gun was disconnected from the recoil system to travel, no doubt to avoid a whiplash in the barrel, but such a slow maneuver does not take place in an anti-tank gun. It was probably just an experimental weapon.

Very nice additions. I remember reading about the PaK 105 in Ian V. Hogg's book on German artillery. Its really nice to see it represented in FD scale.

The ELC EVEN was a proposal for the French program Engin Léger de Combat (light tank). There were versions with 30mm twin gun, 75mm automatic, four 120mm recoilless guns (all in oscillating turret), and missile launcher that could launch anti-tank SS-11 or anti-ship SS-12 (or both at the same time). They were to be employed en masse against the Soviet tanks. Only a few prototypes were built. Three are preserved (one of 30 mm and two of 75 mm).
