Re: JU-88 C-6 without gondola
Backwards-firing gun pack !
The Luftwaffe seems never to have abandoned the idea that backwards-firing fixed small caliber MG's were anything but a waste of fuel, but it does explain the periscope.
The image of a Ju-88 pilot trying to evade a heavily armed fighter on his tail with one eye stuck on the periscope sight is not a pretty one.
