TM-3-12

<space=1em>Formidable weapon

<space=1em>In the 1930s the USSR began building large-caliber railway artillery units. For their time, they were a formidable weapon, as they carried a powerful warhead, had a long firing range (up to 35 km) and could maneuver unnoticed by the enemy due to their mobility. The artillery units were intended to combat sea targets and were part of the coastal units of the navy.

<space=1em>TM-3-12 mounts

<space=1em>In 1938 the Andre Marty Nikolaev Plant manufactured three super-heavy artillery mounts, which were named TM-3-12 — marine transporter, third type, 12-inch caliber. Each mount was equipped with several special cars for support and maintenance, necessary for transportation and firing: a car for shells, a car for charges, a car-fire control panel, a car-electric power station.

<space=1em>«Empress Maria»

<space=1em>The mount initially used guns manufactured in 1912 for the battleship «Empress Maria». October 20 1916 in the Sevastopol roadstead, half a mile from the shore, a powder magazine exploded on the ship, as a result of which the ship sank.

<space=1em>In 1931 the gun turrets of the battleship were raised by specialists of the expedition of special underwater works. Three guns were used for installation on special railway transport platforms TM-3-12. All three mounts took part in the Soviet-Finnish War.

<space=1em>Restoration

<space=1em>At the end of 1941 as a result of the evacuation of the military base, the artillery mounts were brought to a state that excluded their further combat use: the mechanisms and devices were disabled, the barrels were blown up. However, Finnish specialists managed to restore them. After the end of hostilities between the USSR and Finland in 1944 the installations were returned to the USSR.

<space=1em>The returned artillery installations continued to serve in the Leningrad region. The last combat firing was carried out in 1961 The artillery installation was in service until 1991 It entered the Museum of Russian Railways in 2000

Хронология: <space=1em>In the 1930s, the USSR began building large-caliber railway artillery mounts. A total of about 20 mounts of 356, 305, and 180 mm calibers were built. For their time, they were a formidable weapon, as they carried a powerful warhead, had a long firing range (up to 35 km), and could maneuver unnoticed by the enemy due to their mobility. The artillery mounts were intended primarily to combat sea targets and were part of the coastal units of the navy. <space=1em>The TM-3-12 artillery mount was built at the Andre Marty Nikolaev State Plant in 1938 (former Russud Plant - Russian Shipbuilding Society). TM-3-12 - sea transporter, third type, 12-inch (305 mm) caliber. <space=1em>The mount initially used guns that the Obukhov Plant manufactured in 1912 for the battleship Empress Mariya. It was laid down on June 11, 1911 at the Russud Plant in Nikolaev. It was named in honor of the wife of Emperor Alexander III, Empress Mariya, was launched on October 6, 1913, and was completed by mid-1915. <space=1em>On October 20, 1916, in the Sevastopol roadstead, half a mile from the shore, an explosion occurred in the ship's powder magazine, as a result of which the ship sank. In 1931, specialists from the Special Purpose Underwater Works Expedition (EPRON) raised the battleship's gun turrets. Three guns were used for installation on special TM-3-12 railway transport platforms. All three mounts took part in the Soviet-Finnish War, firing at Finnish fortifications on the Karelian Isthmus. After the end of the war, the Soviet Union received the strategically important Hanko Peninsula in Finland, where a naval base was established. In 1940, these artillery mounts were redeployed to this base. <space=1em>At the beginning of the Great Patriotic War, the TM-3-12 artillery mounts were used to contain Finnish troops. However, the base was forced to be evacuated in October-November 1941. The artillery mounts, not subject to evacuation, were brought to a state that excluded their further combat use: the mechanisms and devices were disabled, the barrels were blown up. <space=1em>During 1941-1942, the mounts were restored by Finnish specialists using guns from the same type of Russian battleship "Alexander III", which was in Tunisia. It was sent there as a result of the evacuation of Wrangel's troops from Crimea in 1920. Finnish specialists managed to completely restore the artillery mounts and conduct test firing. After the end of hostilities between the USSR and Finland in 1944, the mounts were returned to the USSR. <space=1em>The returned artillery mounts continued to serve in the Leningrad Region. The most famous location was the numerous access roads of the now abolished Krasnoflotsk station, where two museum models have also been preserved. The last firing was carried out in 1961. The artillery mount was in service until 1991. Decommissioned in 1999, it entered the museum in 2000.
