Summary

Description

Of these stationary twin minethrowers there are a little over a hundred in Switzerland. They were built from 1960 to 2000 and constantly modernized. In 2011 they were decommissioned and the military branch disbanded.

The guns shoot grenades, canister bullets and intelligent ammunition with a range of 8.5 km and 16-24 rounds per minute. This is the entrance to the bunker, which was operated by 28 men. 47.10921 N, 9.30351 E. Switzerland, Sep 20, 2018.
