I assume that an "LA gun" is a low-angle gun, i.e., one whose arc of fire does not exceed 45° in the vertical plane. Can someone please verify this?

LA is indeed a low-angle gun. apart from the arc of fire these type of guns lack the rate of fire plus the mount speed of train and elevation was way too low to be used against airplanes.Loosmark (talk) 17:39, 6 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
