About The Flakpanzer 38(t)
The Luftwaffe dominated the skies early in WWII, but it met a remarkable reversal as the war proceeded. This created an urgent requirement for mobile antiaircraft platforms for ground troops so they could combat Allied and Russian aircraft. An interim solution was the ?Flakpanzer 38(t) auf Selbstfahrlafette 38(t) Ausf. L (Sd.Kfz. 140),? to give it its full title. However, it was also commonly referred to as the Gepard 38(t) Ausf. L. A total of 140 were produced between November 1943 and February 1944 before the Flakpanzer IV (built on a Panzer IV chassis and featuring a 3.7cm cannon) became available.
"The Gepard 38(t) featured a single 2cm Flak 38 cannon in the rear fighting compartment, with superstructure sides that could be folded down for better crew access and 360ş traverse. These antiaircraft mounts were issued to AA platoons in tank regiments, and a considerable number of them saw combat in the West (e.g. in the Normandy fighting), despite their lack of firepower.
About This Kit
Based on Dragon?s successful 1:35 scale Panzer 38(t), no shortcuts were taken when producing the correct silhouette and detail in this new kit. Therefore, the Gepard 38(t) adds a newly tooled fighting compartment, upper hull and chassis. Dragon?s well-received 2cm flak gun is also carefully lowered into and installed in its mount in the fighting compartment, which is chockablock with interior detail. Even the engine and other parts in the vehicle interior (e.g. the driver?s compartment) are represented in what is a very complete package. A generous supply of slide-molded components, photo-etched parts and Magic Tracks allow modelers to make an exemplary replica of the Gepard 38(t) Ausf. L."
