Schräge Musik was the German term for upward-firing autocannon that the Luftwaffe mounted in night fighter aircraft during World War II. Night fighters used this device to approach and attack Allied bombers from below, outside the bomber crew's usual field of view or fire. An attack by a Schräge Musik-equipped fighter was typically a surprise to the bomber crew, who only realized a fighter was close by when they came under fire. Allied crews often attributed sudden fire from below to ground fire rather than a fighter.
