Re: HE111 Tail Machinegun

Not sure when or how long installation was operated. The Heinkel that crashed at Down Hall Essex in Sept 1940 had one and others well into 1941 had these and tail grenade launching devices. Im assuming since the MG17 device afforded additional direct rear defences they may even have been used up until the cessation of hostilities. Am sure there are far more qualified people here who could define this better than me....Jules
