Bulletpoint Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 The German Nahverteidigungswaffe is a quite simple device installed in the turret of some German tanks. It's basically a hole in the turret roof from where the crew can launch grenades to defend the tank against infantry close assault. However, I noticed that this device is extremely often knocked out when the tank receives non-penetrating hits to the front hull. Is there a good reason for this? It doesn't seem to me that this device would be sensitive to shocks to the hull like the radio might be. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt.Squarehead Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Front hull? That does seem odd. If it were the turret front one could imagine a grazing hit jamming the port or suchlike. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
