He 111 fixed rear defence
While some He 111s had a machine gun in the tail cone, I think that others had a grenade launcher in the same position. I have a generic reference to Störkörperanlagen (literally 'disruptive body installations', although Körper can also mean missiles) but does anyone know what the official designation of this weapon was?
