1934 is not exactly WWII, better post it here next time: http://fhpubforum.warumdarum.de/index.php?topic=2407.0
But the warship took part in defending Leningrad 1941-1943.
That other thread failed miserably and if you try to spam or flame here, I will break your arms.

It was a 50mm autocannon purpose made for aircraft, not the same 50mm as on the Panzer III.  There were two prototypes, one with the MK214, the other with the BK5.  Both were developed from the Pak38.  Since the Panzer III's 50mms were also developed from the Pak38, that makes them more or less cousins- not one in the same.

It looks like the Russians captured German BMW motorcycles.

Do you have any info on that photo? I searched it on google and apparently they are using a French 37mm gun. What could be the theater/year?

"The French Army still had the cannon in service in 1940 as a substitute for the 25 mm Hotchkiss anti-tank gun, which was in short supply. After the defeat of France by Germany, the Wehrmacht began using the TRP under the designation 3.7 cm IG 152(f)."

I never understood how to do that "reverse image search" to find the hidden info on Seth's images...
