The Lyrics

One of the really weird weapons of WW2 on the Russian side was the Ampulomet that was a mortar-type launcher that threw 8 ampoules per minute out to 400 meters! It was 125mm in caliber and fired 3 types of phosophorous/sulfar ampoules: ampulas AK-1, AU-125, and AZh-2. It weighed 58 lbs and was 845mm long. The mixture burned at 1000o Centigrade and so was a threat to the Germans. However, not many seem to have been made or reported about... just like Russian WW2 body armor.
Red weapon threw ampoules
mortar-type design

Eight incendiaries it threw
400 m flyin’
One min. timin’

This was the Ampulomet
Weighed 58 lbs
Phosphorous with sulfur
Burned at 1000o C- wow!

Red weapon threw ampoules
mortar-type design
Threw AU-125s

Launcher threw
Launcher threw
Launcher threw
KS incendiaries
Gave quite a scare
To German infantry
Targets burned down

Was fiery
Red weapon threw ampoules
mortar-type design
(for Red infantry)

Isn't that neat, a canon with automatic fire! ;-) A 8 round salute from one canon for this parody! or I'll have to make that 5, sorry... :-( But great job! :-)

Not a cannon, a mortar-type weapon. Someone has to muzzle-feed that thing every 7.5 secs to get that 8/min ROF!!! Like the PIAT, no way would I want to be stuck in battle with that thing.
