Aircraft straffing mounts for M1921 Thompson SMG

Wed Nov 27, 2019 2:22 pm

This is a straffing configuration of 28 M1921 Thomson SMG mounted in the floor of an unknown aircraft. Does anybody know the aircraft type or any other information regarding this experiment? I've seen this done with Russian equipment but never with Thompsons.

Found this article on the aircraft. It is derived from the Junkers F 13. Just FYI.
