Production was accelerated when war began, but in 1915 it was withdrawn from service and replaced with guns capable of higher angles of elevation and longer range. Later in the war the FK 1909 was brought back into service due to attrition and shortages. A sprung axle was fitted in order to improve its mobility and allowed the FK 109 to be towed by artillery tractors instead horse teams. By the end of the war there were 200 in service, however the FK 1909 was not considered one of Krupp s better guns, due to its large size and small shell size. References Ian V.

Krupp armour was a type of steel armour used in the construction of capital ship s starting shortly before the end of the 19th century. It was developed by Germany s Krupp Arms Works in 1893 and quickly replaced Harvey armor Harvey armour as the primary method of protecting naval ships. The initial manufacturing of Krupp armour was very similar to Harveyized armour however, while the Harvey process generally used nickel steel, the Krupp process added as much as 1 chromium to the alloy in order to gain additional hardness . Also, while Harveyized armour was Carburization carburized by heating the steel and physically placing charcoal on its surface for long durations often several weeks , Krupp armour took this basic idea a large step forward. Instead of attempting to inefficiently introduce carbon at the surface from coals, Krupp armour achieved greater depth of carbon carburization cementation by applying carbon bearing gases to the heated steel. Once the carburization process was complete, the metal was then transformed into case hardening face hardened steel by rapidly heating the cemented face, allowing the high heat to penetrate thirty to forty percent of the steel s depth, then quickly quench ing first the Superheating superheated then both sides of the steel with powerful jets of either water or Mineral oil oil . Krupp armour was swiftly adopted by the world s major navies ballistic tests showed that 10.2 inches 25.9 cm of Krupp armour offered the same protection as 12 inches 30.4 cm of Harvey armour. By the early 20th century it was in turn rendered obsolete by the development of Krupp cemented armour .
