Fixed forward firing 20 mm MG FF on Do 17
Some Do 17 Z employed by 2./NJG 2 in September 1940 was fitted with a fixed forward firing 20 mm MG FF in the lower part of the glasnose as showin in photos on page 64 in Meyer/Stipdonk's book "Die Deutsche Luftwaffe - Zerstörer- und Nachtjagdverbände teil 2".
Is it known if the practice of fitting a MG FF canon in this position was employed by other non-night fighter units?
