Re: BV 138 + Rocket projectiles???

Didn't the Germans use both Bv138s and Do24s in the Mediterranean? Both aircraft could be armed with a 20mm cannon turret in the nose. Return fire from such a weapon with perhaps the opservation of a long muzzle blast, could have given the impression of rockets being launched. From certain angles both look similar with a high mounted wing and the appearance of three-motors.
