double barrelsI have a question on the Crusader tank (I believe Mark 1) it has a small turret on the front hull. I've seen pictures of it and there seems to be two barrels sticking out of it. I know one of them is a machine gun, but what is the other barrel?
Same question for the Carro Armato M13/40, it has two barrels sticking out of the front hull next to the drivers view port.
I can't find an answer in my books. Thanks for the help.
