1. Karl Great
This is a kind of super-heavy self-propelled mortars by Rheinmetall development company. Its barrel diameter up to 60 cm, ie the equivalent of gunboat caliber that time.
Great Karl mortar launcher weighing up to 2 tons to guns located 10 km. It can destroy a high-rise building with only one shot. To operate the super heavy mortars border, it is necessary to the crew 21 people. Nazi-gate fabrication 7 Great Karl mortar. At present only a brief located in museums in Russia.
2. Schwerer Gustav
With the barrel diameter up to 80 cm, Schwerer Gustav was the largest gun ever built humans. It's equivalent caliber gunboat world's largest at the time.
Artillery can fire bullets weighing 7 tons. The entire volume of up to 1,350 tons of cannons. To move it, the soldiers need to watch 2 different rail lines.
Schwerer Gustav artillery firing range of up to about 37 km. Bullets from the gun could penetrate reinforced concrete wall with a thickness of up to 7 meters or shattered armor tank has a meter (if such tanks exist).
German cannon ever built 2 Schwerer and use them in campaign siege of Sevastopol (Ukraine today). During the campaign, about 30,000 tons of artillery shells fired. But owning a very strong powerful but very slow firing Schwerer Gustav, the release rate of around 14 a day.
At the end of the war, the U.S. Army has destroyed two guns lest they fall into Soviet hands.
3. Firecrackers create tornadoes
One other weird weapons that only the Nazi engineers devised is to create a tornado cannon. The design concept is the application of the principle of how the explosion in the combustion chamber at high pressure and then discharged into the goal of creating an artificial tornado.
The purpose of weapons "super simple" is to create the tornado prevent bombers of the allied forces. However, in reality, this only creates a fire tornado in the range of about 200 m should not be able to intercept the bombers. After the German rulers project was canceled.
4. Supergun V3 Hochdruckpumpe
V3 is the cannon barrel principle many applications the combustion chamber from the 19th century. Barrel length up to 140 meters and contains multiple doses reporters inside. They are installed right time to detonate the shells ran through to increase thrust rounds.
By design, the V3 can fire a 150 mm artillery shells, weighing 140 kg to 165 km distance. It can be destructive goals within England and northern France. However, due to the size of V3 is massive so coalition forces destroyed before it can be fired.
