    Hi folks,
    Here's something I picked up some time ago, mainly because of my interest in leichte flak. It's one of those things that is nice and obscure and fairly unique.
    Interested in anyone's thoughts.





    Cheers

    There's really very little available about this weapon. The only decent reference I've been able to find on it is in the British Evaluation. Evidently only 1000 of them were produced. These drawings are for the modified cradle to fit on the standard 2cm Flak 38 Lafette with the only other modifications being to the base of the mount to cope with the increased recoil.
    There's about 10 or 15 separate drawings in the folder with the majority being for small sub-assemblies and fittings to the cradle.
    Here's a photo of the main drawing unfolded.





    And a random photo of one of the medium sized drawings.



    Thanks for your interest.

    Hi Guys,

    Here's a nice diagram showing the 3cm flak 38. It's very different than the 2cm model. Check out the sexy muzzle brake!

    Regards, Ned.

    I'm not a collector by any means and all documents I've accumulated have been for reference purposes, simply because acquiring original documents on many subjects is the only way to get the information. Does anyone have a view on these as documents. I realise their lack of stamps and any notable signatories besides the draftsman might limit their value to collectors of documents.
