autocannon

French air defence weapon of World War I, consisting of a modified 75 mm field gun fitted to a special high-angle mounting and carried on a De Dion Bouton motor lorry. It became the standard anti-aircraft gun in France, used for the defence of forward as well as rear areas and cities, although its use declined as motorized guns became an obsolete method of air defence.

A small number were used in London from 1915 and the design was copied in Britain.
