Re: Bf110 & RZ65 "Trommelgerät" - RE
DearMr. Grzesio
Thanks for your anser. My reference is an article in Air International magazine (Mai-86) - "Messerschmitt's Strategic Fighter...The Bf110". It quotes a Bf110F-2 as test bed for the RZ65 and WGr 21. The RZ65 was a 73mm rocket spin-stabilized packed in rotating cylindrical magazine. It was intended to be used for ground atacks. Fired from a distence of 350 m against a 6x6 m target, it achieved a 40% hits during trials at tarnewitz.But the RML found it not suitble for use.
All the best
José Lourenço
