7,92mm German links
Interesting 7,92mm links that could be used in the MG 34 and MG 42 but designed for aircraft m/g'

The disintegrating links were a breakthrough designed for aircraft, trying to determine who and exactly when is difficult. It was either at the end of WW1 or just after. It added a modicum of weight but got rid of the bulk of belts. In WW1 the aircraft with Vickers and Maxim had to have large drums to accumulate their expended belt...that's why Lewis guns had some favor. The ground gun pictured is still using of course, the 50 rd joinable non disintegrating belts.
