Ju 88 fired ammunition
A question.
A Ju 88 would normally have 7.92mm ammunition it it's guns. When the gun is fired, what happens to the casings do the end up in the aircraft or is there a way they would be dropped by the aircraft during firing? |

The ejected empty case would drop into catch chute 14 and drop into container 13.
