To track targets needing greater traverse either a curved length of railway was used with the gun shunted backwards or forwards to aim; a cross-track was laid with the front bogie turned perpendicular to the rest of the gun and moved up and down the cross-track to train the weapon; or for 360 degree

A final experiment was to bore out two of the weapons to 310 mm (12.2 in) smoothbore to allow firing of the PeenemĂĽnder Pfeilgeschosse arrow shells. These were designated
