The Canon de 8 Gribeauval or 8-pounder was a French cannon and part of the Gribeauval system developed by Jean Baptiste Vaquette de Gribeauval. The Old French pound (French: livre) was 1.07916 English pounds, making the weight of shot about 8.633 English pounds (or 8 lb 10 oz). The 8-pounder was the medium weight cannon of the French field artillery; the others were the light Canon de 4 Gribeauval and the heavy Canon de 12 Gribeauval. Replacing the older Vallière system, the Gribeauval system was introduced in 1765 and the guns were first employed during the American Revolutionary War. The most extensive use of Gribeauval guns was during the French Revolutionary Wars and the Napoleonic Wars. The 8-pounder could be found in divisional reserves, advanced guards or army artillery reserves. Em

  • 8ポンドグリボーバル野砲(仏:Canon de 8 Gribeauval)はフランスが18世紀後半から19世紀前半にかけて使用した、グリボーバル・システムに属する野砲である。 フランス革命戦争およびナポレオン戦争で大いに使用された。しかしながら、最初の実戦での使用例はこれより早く、1780年から1782年にかけてジャン=バティスト・ド・ロシャンボー将軍が率いるフランス陸軍アメリカ派遣部隊が使用し、特に1781年のヨークタウンの戦いは有名である。 8ポンドグリボーバル野砲の操作には13名が必要で、4頭の馬により牽引された。 (ja)
