These developments led to the introduction of the La Hitte system in 1858, a fully integrated system of muzzle-loading rifled guns.
Jean-Baptiste Verchère de Reffye took a key role in introducing rifled breech loading cannons, a marked improvement over the previous La Hitte system which had been in place since 1858.
He was a French major general, Senator, Foreign Minister, and the implementer of the La Hitte system of rifled guns in 1858.
However, the artillery was ill-equipped, still using muzzle-loading cannons of the La Hitte system.
