Artillery Loads

RE: Artillery Loads
Does the "X105mm DF" shown mean this gun can not fire over open sights?

I am not sure what the gun crew's nationality is from the image in the first post. I thought the US forces used guns of at least this caliber to "bunker bust" around Nancy in 1944 and in other battles around the Siegfreid Line that Autumn in 1944.
I read some time ago that just the appearance of such large caliber guns in a direct fire role caused the Germans to abandon the bunker position than try and survive the coming fire.

What am I missing here in SB terms?
