The Polish 75mm Armata Polwa WZ 1897 was the most widely used gun in Polish service in 1939 with 1,374 in service. The gun itself was French, known as the Canon de 75 mle 1897 and had been produced in 1897 and adopted in 1898. By the outbreak of WWII the French had 4,500 in service. These were updated with new wheels and pneumatic tyres to allow them to be towed by trucks. A large number of captured guns were also used by the Germans in coastal defence positions.
