[About the 8-ton half-track and 8.8cm gun]
- The German 8.8cm gun demonstrated high performance not only as an anti-aircraft gun but also as an anti-tank gun.
- The 8.8cm gun developed by Krupp in 1928 was formalized as the Flak18, and later improved as the Flak36 based on experience in the Spanish Civil War.
- Later, Flak37, equipped with a meter-type trajectory calculator, appeared.
- In World War II, it was mainly deployed by the Air Force, and was also deployed by the Army, demonstrating its effectiveness as an anti-aircraft gun and in anti-tank attacks.
- It continued to be active until the end of the war, and is known as one of the masterpieces of World War II.
- The famous duo that ran through the battlefield towing that 8.8cm gun was Sd.Kfz.7, an 8-ton half-track.
- Developed by Klaus Maffei, the engine is equipped with a Maybach inline 6-cylinder gasoline engine.
- It was a type with a towing capacity of 8 tons and was formalized as Sd.Kfz.7 in 1934.
- In addition to being used as a towing vehicle for an 8.8cm gun, it also served as a base for self-propelled artillery equipped with various guns.
- It could be seen on every battlefield throughout the war.
