    The most effective and deadliest weapon of WW2. Its crew included a man whose job was to exchange barrels to avoid damage from overheating. In heavy combat usage barrels had to be replaced every few minutes. They would be placed aside to cool, and other barrels would be installed. Once cooled the barrels would again be reinstalled. The procedure was quite simple, with just a few movements. Typical German efficiency.

    I remember reading how early in the war the 2 cm Flak 38 was particularly deadly against slow flying obsolete Allied bombers. Aircraft like the Fairey Battle were easy prey while attempting to bomb German columns. In one account, almost the entire squadron of Battles was wiped out by 20 mm Flak in a raid on a German column in France.

    Great info but the narration almost drowned out by all the background soundtrack.

    operating those guns are dangerous other than being shot by a plane, because if not careful you get hit on the face with those exiting shells

    Does anyone know of the effect of frozen barrels on the function of the weapons? The question only occurred to me after seeing the footage of the barrel being changed by the soldier in winter camouflage. Did the barrel diameter shrink or expand after the gun hadn't been fired for hours in freezing conditions? Did it ever become 'brittle'? (Eastern front where minus 40°c temperatures were experienced.) Were the spare barrels kept warm somehow? Did the ammunition expand when frozen? (I live in a warm climate where the temperature rarely falls below 0°c and have no experience of these temperatures.)

    They actually use anti freeze liquid. The Norwegians perfected winter warfare which was copied by the Germans and Russian as the war progressed

    They changed barrels to prevent overheating...nevermind summer or winter. Shells have copper bands which engage rifling so there is no "too small barrel for shell to fit" AKA "shrunk barrel".
