Ironically, there might be video out there now of a Russian S400 or Pantsir missile battery in the EXACT same location, trying to do the same thing to a Ukrainian-fired cruise missile. "History doesn't repeat, but it does rhyme."
@@trentasenzalode Nah, I just guessing. You'd need a real WW2 sleuth to nail down exact gun positions and then match them to geo-located Ukraine War footage.
Most likely, the unit is an element of 9th FLAK Division. Hard-fighting unit. Destroyed at Stalingrad. Rebuilt from remnants in the Crimea. Sacrificial actions covering the maritime and aerial evacution of 17th Army elements in April and May 1944 in the Crimea. Surviors entered Soviet captivity.
Back then most cameramen, at least embedded with units in action, had just a film camera. Sound recording required separate equipment and an operator. A lot of modern videos using this old film imagery have an added soundtrack that was in no way recorded on site. And even back then the films shown back home to keep the public informed (or misinformed ;) ) often had sound added from a library of recordings during the editing process.
88mm, basically the anti-everything gun of its time.
88 flak probably one of the best anti-air and anti-tank gun of World War II such a great piece of History

It's also why diving planes, gunfire, etc, always sort of sound the same from reel to reel - the studio folk are re-using popular sound effects.
