  • The Bofors 152 mm gun is a naval gun. It was initially used aboard light cruisers and cruisers including the Swedish Tre Kronor class and the Dutch De Zeven Provincien class, after World War II. It is still used on the Peruvian Navy cruiser BAP Almirante Grau and is currently the largest naval gun still in active service. The 152 mm gun was first designed in 1939 by Bofors for the Koninklijke Marine cruiser Kijkduin, eventually named De Zeven ProvinciĆ«n. After the German invasion of the Netherlands in 1940 these artillery pieces were confiscated by the Swedish Government and placed on the Swedish cruiser HSwMS Tre Kronor.
