FIRST WATCH ANIMATION VIDEO: https://youtu.be/iDVnQX7Z1Js The Cannon of Mehmed II; There is a huge bronze cannon in the Fort Nelson Museum. It is cast in two pieces, chase and breech, the two parts screwed together. It is reported that the Ottomans cast such split cannons in 15th and 16th century for ease of transportation. No such split guns had existed in Europe before then. This gun had devastated ships attempting to breach the Ottoman seas. This novel cannon was cast in 1453 by the order of the Sultan Mehmed II. He was very interested in firearms, especially in cannons. During his siege of Constantinople, he ordered his cannon master to cast large cannons which had never seen before. His artillery group was populated with skilful designers and engineers, including such names as Saruca Usta and architect Muslihiddin Usta. It also included non-Muslims, such as Urban, who were dissatisfied with the poor treatment they received from the Byzantines.

The surface between the outermost of these mouldings and the prominent mouldings at the ends is filled with two interlocking bands of formalised flower of leaf ornament, one raised, the other sunken. The muzzle is inscribed in Arabic writing: Help O Allah. The Sultan Mohammed Khan son of Murad. The work of Kamina Ali in the month of Rejeb. In the year 868 (CE. 1464). In an article on this gun, General Lefroy stated that the engraved inscription was a modern addition, basing this view on the fact that the powder chamber would in fact hold a powder charge of 150 lb, which is much more than that inscribed on the cannon. The reason is thought to be due to the improved and stronger powder of the early 19th century. For firing, it was mounted on wooden beds with large wooden recoil bed behind it. Such guns were capable of firing across the Strai...
