German Motorcycle-Sidecar Machine-Gun with ammunition trailer, 1915.


German Motorcycle-Sidecar Machine-Gun with ammunition trailer. Belgium 1915.

Transformation made by the Germans in 1915, using material captured from the Belgians. In this case it is a motorcycle F.N. to which a platform (sidecar) has been added carrying a Belgian Hotchkiss M1900 machine gun. The tandem was completed with a two-wheeled trailer carrying the ammunition of the machine gun. Transformations similar to this type of "Moto-Side-MG", were also made on the Eastern front, in these cases carrying Russian Maxim machine guns.
