The 203 mm M1931 (B-4) howitzer is a fairly old gun, developed in 1931 and put into service in 1934. The B-4 has a relatively short tube, only 25 calibers long.
It has a hydraulic recoil buffer, mounted on a full-track (but not self-propelled) carriage in combat position and for short strokes.
For longer distances, it was transported on a separate two-wheeled tubular conveyor. The M1931 (B-4) can fire a 98.8 kg high-explosive fragmentation projectile to a maximum range of 18,025 meters.
