Historical overview

The 88mm FlaK 36 was one of the most effective anti-aircraft and anti-tank guns used by the Wehrmacht during World War II. Its versatility and power meant that it was used not only against air targets but also, especially during the battles of Kursk and Normandy, as an anti-tank weapon. Due to a shortage of heavy self-propelled guns, the Germans experimented with mounting this powerful gun on the chassis of the Pz.Kpfw.IV tank. It was a provisional construction, used locally, especially on the Eastern Front and in France, mainly in the years 1943-1944 – it was highly suitable for fighting heavy Allied tanks.
