Interesting how close some of these are to the eventual M65 "Atomic Annie" 280mm gun in terms of carriage design. All derived from rail Schnabel cars. Think there are separate threads going already for most of the projects I know of, the Geschützwagen Tiger and Soviet mega-guns (going from the still-in-use 240mm 2S4 Tyulapan through the 405mm 2A3 Kondensator-P and 420mm 2B1 Oka to V.K Grabin and Leonid Kurchevsky's work on absolutely monstrous recoilless gun systems) have definitely been covered here.
