HC Deb 22 October 1942 vol 383 c2123W
Mr. Reakes

asked the Minister of Aircraft Production whether he has official information to show that the Germans are using a 30 mm. cannon in aircraft on the Russian front; and whether his Department has in production a gun of equal muzzle velocity and rapidity of fire?

Mr. Ben Smith

It would not be in the public interest to enter into a discussion of this kind, but I can assure my hon. Friend that the armament of British aircraft is fully equal to that of the enemy.
