Hi,
I was checking satelite images of this site and saw that there are 2 battery's and FuMG Bär was located in this area.
I think the battery on the right is HKB 3/480, in the middle FuMG Bär (by the water) and now my question is, what is the battery on the left ?
Is it a part of 3/480 or a different battery ?
HKB 3/480
Moderators: Stutzpunkt, KOS
I don't have any information, but looking at the remains (if they in fact are actual remains from german WW2 activity), I think they appear similar to some of the Flak-positions seen elsewhere in Finnmark. So, perhaps a Flak-battery?cyber2001 wrote:what is the battery on the left ?

Hallo
Indeed FuMG Bär and a 88 cm Flak battery. Even further right on your map there are also remains of a 3,7 cm Flak Battery and some close defence positions. Rather poor constructions, and everything was blown up in -44.

Hallo
As far as I know, no radar positions in Norway had 8,8 cm in their arsenal!
This battery most likely belongs to the defence of Flugplatzkommando Berlevaag , which by february 1943 had 1 x 8,8cm battery, 2 Züge 3,7cm Flak and 2 züge 2 cm Flak.
