        I would say more likely 2cm german MG-151/20 cannons.Looks like 3gun frame from airplane fitted into top of some AA-lafette.

          Most likely the Fla MG Drilling (3x MG151/20) setup from Sd.Kfz 251/21 AA-halftrack.

            Great photo of the bomb disposal squad! How many of us would like to grap one of those panzerfausts? (deacted of course)
