M 272 Bttr Lokken Nord

#1

Post by dirk Peeters » 21 Apr 2014, 11:17

strange that the german OKM developped new plans for the danish 12 cm guns
here in lokken nord they have these danish guns (Rudi Rolf and Jens Andersen in German bunkers in Denmark
the M 272 has to be equiped with large niches and an ventilation system
Here in this batterie they started with the M 272 in september 1944 and december 1942

the OKM releases the new plans on 28 09 1944

but even the one started in december 1944 lacks completely this system

there are even no niches at all ....
looks that the germans didn t look to often at their new plans
i ll scan the drawnings this evening
anyone has more info for this bttr ? like the M 160 ?

Hi Dirk

Also the M 272 at Skagen don't have the niches http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic. ... 0&t=187490
please note that the drawing from 28-09-1944 was a "Geschutzschartenstand 120 für mittl. Batterien und
12 cm dänisch " .

Regards Jos
