C4P is a Polish half-track artillery tractor from the interwar period and World War II. The first prototypes of the vehicle were made in 1934, and serial production continued in the period 1935-1939, ending with the production of about 400 examples. The C4P was powered by an engine FIAT-122B with 46 HP. The vehicle did not have any permanent weapons.

Along with the slow motorization and mechanization of the Polish Army at the turn of the 1920s and 1930s, it was decided to increase the mobility of Polish artillery and to use newly developed half-track vehicles in some of its units. In the development of the new vehicle, many components of the Fiat 621 truck produced in Poland were used, and in the track machine, elements from the Vickers E tank and French designs by Citroen and Kegresse were used. Finally, a successful design with good mobility and maneuverability was created, but it is characterized by a lot of fuel chewing and a weak engine. Specialized versions were created on the C4P chassis: a truck, a workshop car and an ambulance. C4P vehicles were used in the September campaign in 1939, but probably none of them survived World War II.

75 mm field gun wz. 1897 is a French 75 mm towed cannon, used in the Polish Army in the interwar period and at the beginning of World War II. The weight of the weapon in the combat position was 1,190 kilograms, with the total length (in the combat position) of 4.5 meters. The maximum range was about 11,200 meters, with a rate of fire of up to 12 rounds per minute.

The presented cannon is a version of the famous "seventy-five" produced in the Schneider plant for the needs of the French army, the same one that was one of the main cannons of the French army during the Great War. The first guns of this type reached the Polish Army together with General Haller's Blue Army, and another one was received from France in the early 1920s. Another 300 were purchased in 1924, and in the same year more copies were obtained from Romania. 75 mm field gun wz. 1897 in the interwar period was the basic infantry support department, which was most often towed by horse traction. A number of these guns in 1937 were adapted to be towed in motor traction, by replacing wooden wheels with metal ones with tires. C7P or PZInż vehicles were used as artillery tractors. W-Z cake. 34. It is assumed that at the time of the beginning of the September campaign, there were approximately 1,370 guns of this type in the Polish Army.
