<div>== Description ==<br />
The 15 cm/60 SK C/25 is a German made naval gun which was in use during the second World War, mainly on the [[Leipzig]] Class Cruisers and [[Köln|K]] Class Cruisers. It was the best of the 15cm guns the German navy had at the time.<br />
<br />
The naval gun could carry a base fused HE shell, nose fused HE with a ballistic cap, and a base fused armor piercing shell with a ballistic cap.<br />
<br />
The gun was designed with a loose barrel, jacket and breech piece that had a vertical sliding breech block. The naval gun weighed in at 11,970 kg, with a barrel length of 8.57m, along with a a muzzle velocity of 960m/s.<br />

<br />
== General info ==<br />
The 15 cm/60 SK C/25 has a decent rate of fire being able to put a shell out every 9.75 seconds with a stock crew and every 7.5 seconds with an ace gunner crew.<br />
<br />
With a decent muzzle velocity of 960m/s, shells wont take to long to reach the desired target. The guns have enough elevation to reach any target on the given naval maps while also having enough depression to get any PT boat that might be getting to close for comfort, that is if the secondary armament doesn't deal with them first.<br />
<br />
=== Available ammunition ===<br />
''Describe the shells that are available for the weapon and their features and purpose. If it concerns autocannons or machine guns, write about different ammo belts and what is inside (which types of shells).''<br />
<br />
The 15 cm/60 SK C/25 can carry the following shell types:<br />
<br />
Spgr. L/4.4 Bdz SAPBC - It has a gradual drop off in penetration in terms of distance and angle with 141mm of penetration at 1000m 0°, 124mm at 1000m 30°, 80mm at 1000 60°.Its best used against lighter targets such as Destroyers and other Light Cruisers.<br />
<br />
Spgr. L/4.5 Kz HE - It maintains penetration over distance and angle with 37mm of penetration all around and 3.91kg of tnt equivalent. Its best when used against very light targets such a PT's boats that might be getting to close or any of the Coastal Fleet ships.<br />
<br />
Spgr. L/4.5 Zt.Z HE-TF - It has the same characteristics as the Spgr. L/4.5 Kz HE, but the difference with this shell is that it has a time fuze that is best used against planes or any other air target.<br />
<br />
Pzgr. L/3.7 APCBC - It has a gradual drop off in penetration with distance and angle with 281mm of penetration at 1000m 0°, 217mm at 1000m 30°, 101mm at 1000m 60°.Its best used against Heavy Cruisers but practically useless against any Dreadnoughts at range.<br />
