Abstract

Razdoblje između Prvog i Drugog svjetskog rata obilježava period razvijanja taktika i
naoružanja. Države koje su sudjelovale u
Prvom svjetskom ratu i rovovskom ratovanju zapadnog fronta, uvidjele su nedostatke dugačkih i
nezgrapnih pušaka u čišćenju rovova od neprijatelja gdje su kratke strojnice imale prednost u
veličini i brzini paljbe. Međuratno razdoblje karakterizira dodatno eksperimentiranje i razvoj
kratkih strojnica i njihovih načela rada zasnovanih na potrebama i strategijama država
koje su ih razvijale. Drugi svjetski rat potvrđuje vrijednost kratkih strojnica u urbanim borbama
te kao oružje padobranca, oklopnih posada i drugih. Kratke strojnice koje su obilježile razdoblje
Drugog svjetskog rata su MP 38/40 kod Njemačkog Reicha; PPSh-41 kod Sovjetskog Saveza te
Thompson M1 kod Sjedinjenih Američkih Država.

Abstract (english)

The interwar period between World War I and World War II is characterised by a time when
new tactics and weapons were developed, including submachine guns. Countries that were a part
of World War I and its trench warfare on the Western Front saw the shortcomings of the long
and cumbersome rifles in clearing the trenches where the submachine guns had an advantage due
to their size and rate of fire. The interwar period is marked by further experimentation and
development of submachine guns and their actions based on the needs and strategies of the
countries that developed them. World War II confirms the value of submachine guns in urban
combat and as a weapon of paratroopers, vehicle crews, etc. Submachine guns that haved marked
the World War II period are the MP 38/40 in the German Reich, the PPSh in the Soviet Union
and the Thompson M1 in the United States.
