I'm sorry for replying to this thread but after watching the guncam action and it being so dramatic and then seeing you guys talk about the download times I'm dumbfounded(or maybe just DUMB). It took me all of ONE MINUTE to download it, and you guys could take so much longer to get to enjoy it, I just wanted to point out how much DSL is REALLY worth.........

Aces High Video bt Iron Maiden... Pretty good mixed with Pearl Hrbour BOB footage...
YouTube - Iron Maiden Ace's High


Sorry my ignorance but I dont see any german guncam footage in there.
 
Holy!!!!!

The weapon was extremely powerful.

Charlie, are they positive that´s Rudel performing the attack?

Whatever...it bears the hallmark of top professionals; notice how it first overshoots, but the aim is corrected and adjusted before passing the target then it hits the mark.

Impressive. Top flyers in action.
 
I am not positive, Rudel is named by the guy who uploaded it in youtube, I just heard from the comentator the word "landungboot" "brukenkopf" wich is "landing boat" "bridge head"

The weapon was extremely powerful
.

Indeed in the minute 0:23, 0:35 and 1:19 you can see the boats blewing up.
 
remember it is Deutsche Wochenschau propaganda footage, it could be any StG unit Panzerstaffel with G-1's/G-2's and may have absolutely nothing to do with Rudel. Probably used HE instead of the tungsten cored rounds
 
Agree, but just to note:

On February 10th of 1943, Hans Rudel flew his 1000th mission and became a national hero to the German public.Rudel was then posted to the new special "Panzerjagdkommando Weiss" unit formed at Briansk to test newly developed tank-busting version of Ju-87 D-3.Modified Stuka armed with two Rheinmetall-Borsig 37mm (BK) Flak 18 guns (each mounted in special canopy under each wing with 6 rounds of ammunition) was developed at the Luftwaffe's experimental station at Rechlin (near Neustrelitz, Germany). Prototypes were used at first against Soviet landing crafts in the Black Sea and in the space of three weeks, Rudel destroyed 70 such boats

Probably used HE instead of the tungsten cored rounds

Yes, that munition would be more suitable against the thin steel plate of that boats, using hartkern ammo would be a real waste of expensive tugsten.

Holy crap! That 'cannon-bird' footage is INCREDIBLE!!!! I've watched alot of stuka tank-buster footage but have never seen that. Can some kind soul ,if possible post that footage in a WMV file? I would love to save it to disk 8)
 
Another collection of guncams, some of clips are already posted in here but note the clips in the minutes 1:10, 1:20 and 1:35.


The first is attack is against Spitifre, probably a recce variant, the british pilots is caught by surprize no evading manouvers attemped. The guncam probably belongs to a Me-262 , observe the almost instant effect of the Mine ammo, the Spit almost disapeared in a burst of flames. The 190 meters caption was superimposed when the 16mm film was revealed, surely for training purposes.


The one in the minute 1:20 is against a B-25. note the invation strips painted over the "amerikanishe" bomber.

And the last one is shooting a Liberator, also in here seems to be caught by 30 mm cannons, the B-24 right wing was copletely destroyed.

I have these gun cams, the Spit is caught by an Fw 190A-8

the Libs are hit by SturmFW's the first one in the right wing on 27 September 1944 of the 445th bg (this was on our old web-site back in 99-2001 the others with the range meter showing by SturmFw's for a training class. M- Geshcoss taking the heck out of the B-24's both 2cm and 3cm.
