[PAR] [TLE] Canon de 75 modèle 1914 Schneider [SEP] The Canon de 75 modele 1914 Schneider was a French World War I piece of 75 mm artillery, designed and manufactured by Schneider et Cie in Le Creusot.  Similar to the earlier Canon de 75mm Modele 1912 Schneider and also a derivative of Canon de 75 modèle 1897, it featured a longer barrel and an extended firing range. [PAR] [TLE] Canon de 75 modèle 1897 [SEP] The French 75 mm field gun was a quick-firing field artillery piece adopted in March 1898.  Its official French designation was: Matériel de 75mm Mle 1897.  It was commonly known as the French 75, simply the 75 and Soixante-Quinze (French for "seventy-five").  The French 75 was designed as an anti-personnel weapon system for delivering large volumes of time-fused shrapnel shells on enemy troops advancing in the open.  After 1915 and the onset of trench warfare, other types of battlefield missions demanding impact-detonated high-explosive shells prevailed.  By 1918 the 75s became the main agents of delivery for toxic gas shells.  The 75s also became widely used as truck mounted anti-aircraft artillery.  They were also the main armament of the Saint-Chamond tank in 1918.
