I could use that to silence the neighbors dog.

I could use it to silence the neighbour (Not that I have any neighbours )

I could use it to silence the higher ups in my unit who think they have nothing but great ideas.

I'd just blast away with it. I dunno. Maybe some squirrels.

I will not say who I would use it on, I might offend someone.

the german 88mm anti aircraft/anti tank gun.had good range,heavy damage potential and could be radar controlled.

 

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

I personally think it was one of the best all around guns. Maybe not the best at any one given thing but it was very good overall.

It wasn't the best anti-aircaft artillery but it was a versatile piece of equipment and was extremely deadly against tanks.

Ive seen that movie under a higher resolution before...... and it looks like a bomb from an airplane above fell on the wing.

Plus it was in the Pacific, not Europe. From the islands below, it looks like its over Truk or Pulau Atoll.

I took these pix of a pair of Japanese medium Caliber AA guns.

They were recovered from Eastern New Guinie (one is definetly from Wewak area) and are on exhibit at the Imperial Japanese War Museum, Yasakuni, Tokyo.

Nice action shots of 8,8 cm Flak 18 used as field artillery. The gun belong to SS division Totenkopf.

Interesting way to store your ammo.

Also the US 90mm was no slouch. I remember watching a show on discovery channel a few years back, on how back in 1945, it was slaved to a radar and an experimental ballistics computer and could actually automatically track and hit on the first couple of salvo's low and middle flying aircraft.
