This is some great stuff GD! HA stands for High-Arc gun correct? As in the early term for anti-aircraft gun? |

HA = High Angle, but yes a term for AA. Usually restricted to medium calibre AA. The loading arrangements meant that the shells had to be lifted high if the gun was lowered to fire near the horizontal. Compare DP (dual-purpose) a more complex mounting not suffering that disadvantage. |
