  • The notorious 88mm gun (commonly called the Eighty-eight) was a German anti-aircraft gun. Widely used throughout the war, it was one of Germany's most recognised weapons
  • In many parts of Germany mobile FlaK units were employed with guns on railway mounts
  • They could be equipped with any of the following calibres: 20mm (single or four-barrelled), 37mm, 75mm, 88mm, or 105mm
  • These units moved from place to place in special FlaK trains, with their own living and kitchen accommodations
  • The width of the broad-type heavy FlaK cars was extended with a folding flap, allowing crews space to operate the guns effectively
  • On arrival at their destination, the trains were broken up, and the guns and equipment were sited on sidings
  • Contains 1x Twin 8.8cm FlaK Railway Car
