ww2dbaseMikhail Loginov's 76 mm M1938 air defense guns were based on the older M1931 guns of the same caliber, equipped with modernized barrels and mounted on new ZU-8 carriages. Production began in 1938, but it stopped by 1940 when it was superceded by the 85 mm M1939 (52-K) air defense guns. They could fire 6.5-kilogram shells at the muzzle velocity of 816 meters per second for a maximum ceiling of 9,250 meters or, when used against surface targets, a maximum range of 14.6 kilometers; somewhere between 10 to 20 shells could be fired per minute.
