Minengeschoss: More Bang for Your Buck

[@kimmer6]

I have a minengeschoss Mk-108 30mm cartridge in my collection. It's pretty apparent that when the Brits developed the Aden 30mm, they adopted the round based thin shell design. The Apache M-230 ammo is a further development from that where they went for light weight aluminum propellant cases.

[@nicolatesla9429]

Do you have the 'stumpy' one with the round bottom, or the more pointy one with tracer? It's very interesting also how the self destructing fuze (the ZZ1589B) works.

[@kimmer6]

07:43 well thats not true. A lower weight means INCREASED velocity, not reduced. You can see the velocities of the 20mm HE and Minengeschoss at 02:55. While the normal HE has 585 m/s velocity, the Minengeschoss has 718 m/s velocity. When you decrease the weight of a moving mass, while keeping the same force pushing it, the result will be the lighter mass goes faster. It is physics :D

[@davidclifford9774]

Will the heavier round carry it’s velocity longer than the lighter projectile? We need a graph of both projectiles together. The lighter projectile may shed its velocity much faster than the heavier.

Great video that brings back memories from my childhood. There was an Army Surplus Store near me in the sixties and I had a great mother who indulged my interest in all things military. At one time I had a rather nice collection of different rounds, small dummy bombs, grenades and edged weapons. As I said my mother was great to me and I was the envy of the neighborhood. At seven years old I would walk around with saw backed bayonets, military belt with canteen and a dummy grenade in at least one pocket. I also had the obligatory helmet liner on my head. I wish I knew where all of that stuff went. I did catch one of my cousins who spent the night over trying to steal one of my bayonets. That was an awkward moment for my mother. Thanks for sharing pieces of your serious collection with us. I wish I had kept track of my stuff back then as I am 65 now and it is an entirely different world......

[@Furzkampfbomber]

Just a little anecdote: I was born and lived in the GDR. And because socialism is glorious and because it is never too early to make people understand that the 'dictatorship of the proletarians', yes; that was an official term, would not tolerate lazy, intrigant intellectuals amongst its people, school children in the GDR had a full day every two school weeks where we were send to a factory in order to work. And I mean _'work',_ not making some internship or something. At age 13, I was standing on a turning machine for the first time and learned to appreciate when the pain finally stopped, after red-hot turnings found their way into the collar of my cheap combi suit. (I really wish something like this would happen to all the little socialists out there, would change a _lot_ of young people's perspective about oh so great socialism.) But the point is, for a large part of those work details, my class was send to a factory that produced CAM-controlled, automated turning machines. Which were extremely high quality, they were even sold to companies in the U.S.. We happened to produce parts for those machines at age 14 and the turning machine I was working on, making high precision parts for those CAM machines, still had the plaque from the factory where it was made, saying 'Made in 1911'...

[@nicolatesla9429]

1:20 The claim that the MG FF only had 60 rounds is not entirely true. Yes, when mounted in the wings of a Bf 109E it was fed with the 60-round drums. However, there were mounts in, for example, one of the Do-217 Night fighter versions, where the 4 MG FF's were fed with a belt. This was made possible by attaching a special adapter where de drum would go (The Japanese did something similar with their Type 99 guns, which were also based on the Oerlikon design). Also there were 90-round drums which were supposedly used on the Fw190A-5. I used to have one of those 90-round drums, and I've seen a photo of such a drum on a wing mounted gun of a Fw190A-5. I have also several Minenganaten in my collection; 20mm MG FF, 20mm MG151, (of the latter I also have a Brandgranate 44, which had a similar construction of the projectile body, but with a special fuse for fuel tanks. I also have multiple 30mm MK108 Mineshells (with and without tracer, and with and without self destruct). I also have a 30mm MK108 Incendiary shell which had a similar construction as the Minengranate. And you may or may not know this, but the Germans experimented with (among others) a 15mm version of the MG131, called the MG131/15, and there is a mineshell for that cartridge aswell.

[@captainironbat8193]

Lower weight projectiles do not travel at lower velocity. With the same powder charge behind a lower weight projectile then the standard said projectile will travel at a much higher speed than standard. The issue is the falloff rate becomes increasingly worse the lighter projectile. These cartridges probably would have been actually loaded hotter than the standard because they are lighter weight projectiles because if they didn't it would not cycle the action of the weapon.

[@minhducnguyen9276]

Another reason was the thinner casing couldn't handle more pressure and friction from being fired with a bigger powder load it'll rupture from it.

[@BillWilsonBG]

For some reason I was under the impression the minengeschoss cost more to produce than the standard shells. I must've gotten things confused as I thought they were forged and machined hence the thinner walls and increased costs. I must've mixed them with bomb casings, I wasn't aware they were able to use drawn steel for projectiles.

[@MilitariaReviewed]

It seems like the Germans had problems decreasing wall thickness of forged shells while also maintaining consistency. The drawing process was almost certainly more expensive (in terms of labor and the higher grade of sheet steel used) but was the most practical method available. I have been searching for quite some time for original documents discussing the development/testing of minengeschoss but haven't had any luck. If such documents still exist they would probably answer a lot of the questions about cost and the production process.

[@BillWilsonBG]

@@MilitariaReviewed Is there any examples of the forged projectiles prior to any machining or information on the specifics of their production in regards to the machines used in the machining processes of standard shells? The drawing would require higher grade steels and be more complicated in setting up the production line, but I would imagine they would be quicker to produce once the infrastructure is set up since the machines would be doing a single process continuously, and no machining necessary on the projectile itself, just pressing in the threading ring. Opposed to what I can only guess would be them putting the forged projectile into a collet chuck on a turret lathe and drilling several stepped holes as well as threading on a single machine, since the interior view of the standard shell looks fairly complex. That is all just assumption on my part though as well just focusing on the technical rather than considering material shortages for those high grade steels and such. I can't imagine what I described being correct for the production of the forged shells since even with large banks of lathes, it would be very slow considering the sheer amount of ammunition they had to produce.

[@MilitariaReviewed]

@@BillWilsonBG I do know that the description you gave about using a collet chuck and lathe was at least how some larger-caliber projectiles were produced. I have seen a clip from a propaganda film that depicts a factory producing them in this way. Unfortunately, I have yet to find any films or documents showing production of 2cm shells. The closest I have are some data sheets showing dimensions that I would have been provided to the factory. Nothing about how they actually made them though. I do suspect that at least some 2cm shells (excluding minengeschoss of course) were finished on lathes. I have several examples in my collection that have obvious chatter marks left by a lathe. Wish that I had a better answer for you. So much of that sort of information was destroyed late in the war or remains buried in the Bundesarchiv.

[@I_am_not_a_dog]

Well, it’s important to remember that only the Germans used “mine shells.” The RAF utilized .303 (7.7mm) in the early war and began switching over to the 20mm Hispano autocannon a few years in, until it almost completely supplanted the .303 except in a few niche applications. The Hispano used a combination of AP, HE, and SAPI-HE ammunition. While the latter two shells didn’t have the same destructive power of an MG 151 “mine shell,” it still packed a good deal of destructive power, and it fired at a higher rate of fire than the 151. Plus, British aircraft would carry 2-4 of these cannons, compared to MOST German fighters, which mounted 1-2 151s. The U.S. used - primarily - the M2 .50 caliber heavy machine gun for nearly the entire war. The only heavily-utilized U.S. aircraft that utilized autocannons were the P-38 (a single 20mm alongside four .50 cals) and, to a lesser extent, the P-39/P-63 (mounting a single 37mm along with a combination of .30 and .50 cal machine guns). It’s important to remember that the U.S. was mostly focused on bringing down German fighters. A battery of 6-8 .50 cals was more than equal to this task; Indeed, there is an argument to be made to take a large battery of .50 caliber guns over a single 20mm cannon for anti-fighter work. The U.S. never developed a high explosive round for their .50 cal (although they had one for the 20mm and 37mm, obviously). The Italians used a mixture of Breda 7mm and .50 cals. Interestingly, they developed and used a HE round for their .50. They began using more imported MG 151s as the war progressed. The USSR used 7mm and .50 cals early war, switching to almost pure 20mm cannon armament by mid-war. Their HE rounds packed the least punch of any 20mm HE round of the war, but they fired fast, were cheap, and reliable.

[@jfan4reva]

The lower weight of the projectile should have resulted in a higher (muzzle) velocity given the same amount of propellant. However, it should have also resulted in a shorter range as aerodynamic drag would have slowed it down faster than the higher weight projectiles. (Aerodynamic drag is not linear with velocity - 2x velocity = 4x drag.) Of course, from the looks of the video clips, they only needed one hit, regardless of velocity and range.

[@Maverick966]

I think they had a lower muzzle velocity because they had thinner walls so they were more fragile

[@adamr9720]

I was thinking exactly the same thing. When he first said it was much lighter I though that it would go much faster and fly on a flatter trajectory.

[@nerd1000ify]

@@Maverick966 Mineshells did have higher muzzle velocity than conventional shells- in the MG 151 the M-shell left the muzzle at about 800m/s, compared to about 700m/s for a HE-T or tracer round. The lighter projectiles would slow down more rapidly, but this was of relatively little importance for aerial gunnery at a time where most successful pilots fired at ranges of less than 300m. I suspect that at least some of the reason for these shells having such wildly different velocities is the operating principles of the guns that fired them: The MG FF and MK108 were both blowback operated, and the MG151 was short recoil operated. As a result all of the German aircraft cannons had a certain minimum recoil energy needed for the gun to cycle reliably, presumably they couldn't just reduce the powder charge of the mineshell rounds to match the velocity of the other shells.

[@Error-5478]

Wouldn't the lower weight of the M round mean it has a higher velocity compared to its heavier counterpart? I know little about auto-cannons. But I know a bit about ballistics. When you have the same powder charge pushing something lighter, it usually goes faster?

I am curious about the cost difference between Minengeschoss and .50 BMG rounds. One Minengeschoss would most likely cost more than five .50 BMGs.

[@0Turbox]

The 20 mm minen round had 2.5x the destruction capacity of a .50 cal round. That would mean, that the .50 cal was 2x more cost-effective, if your numbers are right. On the other hand, you needed roughly 3 .50 cal to match a single MG 151/20. One Browning weighted 28 kg and the single MG 151/20 48 kg. A fighter would save around 72 kg if equipped with canons. The .50 cal had better ballistics, but you had to hit critical parts, otherwise the rounds went right through, especially against bombers. A single minen round creates head sizes holes into duraluminium, no matter where it hits, and cripples your flight characteristics big time.

German native speaker here with a small pronunciation correction (because of course, because I'm German.. :D ). The way you pronounce the "Minen"-part, it would have to be spelled "Meinengeschoss" - which is not a proper word. It's "Minengeschoss". The "Mi" part of the German word "Mine" is pronounced similarly to how you pronounce the English "me" (as in "me, myself and I"). So ... "me-nen" in a super-poor man's phonetic speak. :) Googling "Minengschoss pronunciation" brings up a page with a good example of the correct pronunciation as the top result.

[@kimjanek646]

Great video. I haven’t seen this table for the ammunition use yet. I only know one account from 1943 and 1944. In the one from 1944 they just differentiate between fighters in the east and west for the MG 151/20, and they recommend the same ammunition as you show here vs. four engined bomber and other planes. Just shows you that on the west their main targets were for the most part these big bombers while on eastern front they mostly had to deal with fighters and attack aircraft. Just wish you had more information on the actual performance 🙂 As far as I know were regular HE shells quite effective against older aircraft designs, since the structure of the wing was mainly supported by spars that held them together. New designs using the semi-monocoque design were quite sturdy to that kind of damage since the whole metal frame supported the wings and fuselage. So the idea of Mineshells was to rely on a Mine effect (German for blast) to create pressure inside the structure to blow it apart. But you can see that against bombers the newly developed incendiary ammunition was preferred over 20mm Mineshells. Since bombers are just too big to deal substantial damage with small explosive shells, while a fuel tank fires are usual a death sentence. So while they tried to develop bigger shells that could take out bombers with few hits via explosive damage, they replaced or substituted smaller explosive shells with incendiary ammunition.

[@MilitariaReviewed]

Glad you liked the video. You are definitely correct about belt compositions changing throughout the war. No easy answer when people ask about the ratios of different cartridge types in them. The pilots/squadrons generally had a good bit of freedom when it came to choosing load outs. One thing that I like to do is look at reports from archeological excavations of crash sites. What they find can at those can give you a good idea of what was actually used “in the field.” I have a ton of performance data but virtually all of it is from testing in a controlled environment. It is easy for folks to be mislead by that sort of data which is why I don’t generally bring it up. I can send you what I have though if you would like it.

That's funny, you know a huge load about the Minengeschoss but you still can't pronounce it correctly 😂 Try to say meenen but don't make the ee to long, just take the sound of the ee when you see an i in German.

Speaking to an english audience, how much does 150 grams weigh? I have no idea, no comparison. And that was not the only measurement so screw looking it up. Basically unless you put our measurement system on screen your videos have no value.
