She was a victim of a seven-strong gang from Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, found guilty of raping two girls from the age of 13 and 14 in a campaign of abuse lasting more than 10 years from 1995.
Leeds Crown Court heard how the young teenager was raped on 'grubby mattresses', in parked cars and in local parks.
Giving evidence from behind a screen, she said the seven defendants were the only men she could identify out of around 300 she'd been forced to have sex with as a teenager.
She said she was supplied with alcohol, ecstasy, cannabis and cocaine before being attacked in Bradford, Dewsbury, Huddersfield and Manchester.
The woman said: "It was 300 guys, it was a number like 200-300 I remember doing.
"It could be ten at once, one after the other, and I’m crying, but no one can find the men.
"They all did it. There were loads of men who did it, they all acted the same.
“I was a child. I would have been drunk, and thought I had to do it."
SEX BEASTS CAGED FOR CAMPAIGN OF ABUSE
Prosecutor Kate Batty told how the terrified teenagers were "systematically groomed and exploited" by the men.
They were viewed as "objects to be used and abused at will", she added.
