Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The QF 3 pounder Hotchkiss was a light 47-mm naval gun introduced in 1886 to defend against new small fast vessels such as torpedo boats, and later submarines. It was also used ashore as a coast defence gun and later occasionally as an anti-aircraft gun. In 1886 this gun was the first of the modern QF artillery to be adopted by the Royal Navy as Ordnance QF 3 pounder Hotchkiss, built under licence by Elswick Ordnance Company. By World War I the Hotchkiss gun was obsolete, and was gradually replaced in its class by the more powerful Ordnance QF 3 pounder Vickers gun. But many were brought back into service on merchant vessels used for auxiliary duties in World War II, or as subcalibre guns for gunnery practice until the 1950s.
