This mobile anti aircraft gun was created for the German military in 1943 to supply battlefield security for his or her forces subject to sustained assault by enemy planes. The car originated, on the basis of the 38T tank framework, of Czechoslovakian beginning currently widely employed once the foundation for reconnaissance and mobile artillery devices. The Gepard carried a 2cm cannon, FLAK 38 and even though well armed didn't alone deliver the total amount of fire needed seriously to protect a spot under assault and so it absolutely was required to deploy them in teams for effective defence. Total manufacturing amounted to 140 before manufacture ceased in very early 1944.
