He162 post #2480: I'm not that sure but looks like it has been pictured at the famous "Maloney Air Museum". Don't know the date/period, though.

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
 

An aircraft of III./SG10, has anyone got any idea of the location?

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
 

Seller claims it is Straubing. Do you disagree with that since you are asking?

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
 

Interesting missile. In some ways, it's like an artillery shell, and sighted by eye. Thanks for posting it.

WGr28 launcher, I think
HTH
Giampiero Piva

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
 

Yes but that was an artillery piece. In service in 1941. This is testing for the Luftwaffe in 1944. This looks like testing for a new purpose, like anti aircraft.

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
 

This type of rocket would not be suitable for antiaircraft use. Instead, I think this shows a test of a rocket propelled artillery shell on a simplified launcher. This launcher would have been used in the field, and based on what I see, would be sighted by eye and the elevation would be changed for different distances. It reminds me of the 'Stuka zu Fuss' that was fired from its packing crate (a board or two had to be removed) when mounted on the sides of a Sd.Kfz. 251 half-track.

It would have to fly higher to be used against aircraft when launched from the ground. The apparent altitude I see does not appear to be very great.

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
 

Zum fuss is an early adoptation 1944 is therefor too late.

Hi everyone
I bought this pics with the He 111Z because I am interested in this type from operational history at Dijon-Longvic and Dole-Tavaux.



Maybe I can bring "some more light in the darkness", there is a writing on the back, which says:
"5-motored German plane at airport near Beedenbostel, May 1945".


Beedenbostel is near Celle, in the triangle Celle-Wesendorf-Gifhorn in Lower Saxony.
As I see,there were some airfields used by the Luftwaffe in this area (-> www.ww2.dk).
Maybe someone of you can now exactly locate where this pictures have been taken.

Regards

Harry

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
 

Thanks a lot for this info Harry - In the meantime we pinpointed the location of this airfield to Dedelstorf, which is actually quite close to Beedenbostel. So I think this is one more confirmation :)

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nebelwerfer


"A version of the 21 cm calibre system was adapted for air-to-air use against Allied bombers".

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
 

Thank you, Christian, quite an interesting lot of Luftwaffe places in that part of Germany.


I forgot, the picture in post No 2368 (Bf109) is also marked "Wrecked by Germans before retreating, near Beedenbostel, May 1945". So this picture might also be taken at Dedelstorf.


Regards


Harry

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
 

Snautzer,


I don't think so. The launcher in the video does not have a barrel. The ring-like framework means this projectile would be unguided. And I didn't see a method of firing it. Even the panzerfaust was a little better in this regard. I would hate to think the loaders pulled an igniter at the back end, loaded the shell and the aimer only had seconds to aim before it went off.


The launcher, or duel launcher, in the video would have made a better bombardment weapon, especially if two or more were firing in the same direction.

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
 

As I own several pictures (from the guy who took them) of this He 111 Z when it was still flying and also as a wreck in April 1946 (i.e. a year after it was blown up and some 11 months after the Ebay pictures where taken), I'm quite sure it was Fliegerhorst Dedelstorf. When you compare the May 1945 photos with those from April 1946, they are virtually identical even down to the angle under which they were taken. Also, when you look at Larry deZeng's "Luftwaffe Airfields 1935 - 1945" at the above mentioned website, you will see that the presence of this aircraft is not illogical considering the training units stationed at Dedelstorf ("paratroops (Fallschirmjäger) training and as an NSFK glider school").

@Harry, I bought 2 of these He 111 Z wreck photos from the same series/seller. I'm willing to share info and scans. Would you please send me a PM?

Best regards,

Marcel

Rudi,
Thank you for this nice album where the only one clear is a picture of Sicilian worker drinking using a bùmmulu, called Canari in Africa ;)
Regards,
Franck.
PS: CV-V, too, WNr.10639, G-2/Trop, the famous "Schwarze 6" too. Hence this photo album is a little bit more than "captured German photographies" album.
