    Post Battle of Britain: Luftwaffe/Axis options

    Similar to the post-BoB RAF: what might've Luftwafe/RLM do after Autumn of 1940 in order to improve their standing, both in short-term (next 12 months) and long-term (a few next years). I've also included 'Axis' term here - mostly European Axis countries' air forces/services - since they can be...

    Italian Bohler 47mm L70

    Does anyone know Bohler 47mm L70? In WW2,Bohler 47mm L32 M1935 was famous,but according to some articles,47mm L32 couldn't be used well against tanks in the war,so Bohler designed L55,even...L70 I failed to find its data.

    When the Germans realised they needed self-propelled artillery (as opposed to Assault guns) to keep up with the Panzers, their initial efforts involved conversions of various captured vehicles to carry artillery along with the creation of three interim conversions based on tanks already in...

    Large flakturms/flak tower batteries

    I'm not entirely sure if this would go here since it's a building project rather than a land vehicle, but I thought It was the best place to ask... According to the Wikipedia article on flak towers: Is anyone here knowledgeable on these proposals? Were official plans ever drawn up for them...

    Breitspurbahn three metre gauge railway

    I'm putting this here under the thin justification that some of the cars were to be defensively armed, there were plans to transport small warships with it, and it could fill a logistics role similar to the Reichsautobahnen. However, I really just wanted a thread somewhere to discuss this. Some...

    Siebel Si 201 pusher aircraft

    Not being much of a German aircraft specialist, I find myself stuck trying to identify this strange little pusher bird... It may well be a Focke-Wulf project, but that's my only clue. I'm sure someone will be able to identify it soon and put me to shame! Thanks in advance for your help.

    Blohm und Voss P.173.02 - Long range bomber project

    I have a very poor microfilm blueprint scan of the Blohm und Voss P.173.02 long range bomber. From what I can make out it is a six engined bomber that shares the wings and tail of the BV 238 seaplane. Does anyone have any good drawings or information on this project? I'll try to make as clean...
