Re: Seeking ID of strange "cheese grater" device on below cockpit window of some 1940 He111s
Flares were occasionally used to signal WHERE to drop bombs during poor visibility. I know the RAF used flares which once launched they would drop an illuminate the target area. Cannot remmebrif the germans did the same.
Not need to have them pointed up, as asked earlier...the Me109 had the flare port also pointed down.
