I never understood how that thing worked. It must have gotten real cold in there.

FW 189, it is:)


   It is, MG 15.(later models had MG 81Z Mount's.


  It rotated, so he could fire in any direction, prety slick actualy, it also had a panal that could be put over the opening to close it off.

Well, here are some pics I found, hope you'll be satisfied with 'em.
They're from a BV-141 btw, but it's the same idea.

Wow, I never saw the BV 141 before - truly bizarre! I was asking about the rotating turret mechanism on the FW 189, but that asymmetrical design of the BV 141 is really something. What was the rationale for that?
