Fotogalerie eines US 90mm M2 FlugabwehrkanoneDie amerikanische 90-mm-Kanone diente als primäre schwere Flugabwehr- und Panzerabwehrkanone und spielte eine ähnliche Rolle wie die berühmte deutsche 88-mm-Kanone. Es war die primäre Flugabwehrkanone der USA von kurz vor der Eröffnung des Zweiten Weltkriegs bis in die 1950er Jahre, als die meisten Flugabwehrartillerie durch Lenkflugkörpersysteme ersetzt wurden. Als Panzergeschütz war es die Hauptwaffe des Jagdpanzers M36 und des Panzers M26 Pershing sowie einer Reihe von Nachkriegspanzern.

das US 90mm M2 Flugabwehrkanone was a heavy artillery piece used by the United States Army during World War II and the Korean War. It was designed to shoot down enemy aircraft at high altitudes and long ranges, as well as to provide direct fire support against ground targets. The M2 had a maximum range of 17,823 meters and a maximum ceiling of 10,973 meters. It fired a 90mm shell that weighed 10.6 kilograms and had a muzzle velocity of 823 meters per second. The M2 was mounted on a four-wheeled carriage that could be towed by a truck or tractor. The gun had a crew of eight men and could fire up to 20 rounds per minute. The M2 was one of the most effective anti-aircraft guns of its time and was widely used by the US Army and its allies in various theaters of war. It was also adapted for use as a tank destroyer and an anti-tank gun, with different ammunition types and sights. The M2 was eventually replaced by the more advanced M3 90mm gun in the late 1950s.
