Historical information

The Flakpanzer IV Ostwind was a German self-propelled anti-aircraft vehicle from World War II, based on the chassis of the popular Panzer IV medium tank. The Ostwind was fitted with a hexagonal turret housing a Flak 43 37 mm (L/89) anti-aircraft cannon. Vehicle production began in 1944, and Ostwind units were primarily deployed to protect Wehrmacht forces against Allied air attacks, mainly on the Western and Eastern Fronts between 1944 and 1945.
