  Alan 1/35 'Gepard' Flakpanzer 38(t)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
A feasable solution was an anti-aircraft tank, or flakpanzer, capable of opening fire several minutes after an air raid warning.
38(t), famous for its excellent riding qualities and dependability, was one of the leading candidates for the flakpanzer program.
The original order for a flakpanzer 38(t), armed with a single-barrel 2cm flak 38, was for 150 vehicles, but only 140 were ever made.

They left Italy in late July 1944 with 8 Flakpanzer 38s and were sent to the Weichsel River bend area and assigned to the 9.
Initially they were fighting in Italy with these Flakpanzer 38s but in August 1944 they were reassigned to the Eastern Front and they still had 8 Flakpanzer 38s on their roster.
This unit also was engaged in the west and on 3 Spetember they had 5 Flakpanzer 38s remaining of which only 4 were operational and 1 was in short term maintenance.

 Flakpanzer 38(t) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Flakpanzer 38(t) (officially name Flakpanzer 38(t) auf Selbstfahrlafette 38(t) Ausf M (SdKfz 140)) was a German anti-aircraft vehicle used in World War II.
As the vehicle used the 38(t) Ausf M chassis, the engine was near the middle of the vehicle and the armament was placed at the rear in a specialy designed armoured section.
The Flakpanzer 38(t) was intended to be issued to the anti-aircraft Platoon of each tank Regiment in a Panzer division.

 Achtung Panzer! - Hetzer
The Panzerkampfwagen 38(t) chassis was chosen as a base for this new Panzerjäger.
In November of 1944, it was also accepted to utilize Hetzer's chassis as a base for Flakpanzer 38(t) Hetzer (Kleiner Kugelblitz) mounted with turret (with the same and/or different armament) designed for Flakpanzer IV Kugelblitz, but it was never materialized due to the war situation.
Jagdpanzer 38(t) Hetzer was cheap, fast, low and hard hitting and is considered to be one of the most successful tank destroyers of World War II.

A modified Panzer 38(t) chassis was also the basis for the highly successful German Jagdpanzer 38(t) Hetzer tank-destroyer.
The Panzer 38(t) had 25 mm of slightly sloped homogenous steel armor on the front, and 15 mm of armor on the sides and back.
The Panzer 38(t) had a crew of four: the commander/gunner(position 2), and loader(position 3) in the turret, and the driver(position 1) and hull gunner/radio operator (position 4) in the front of the hull.

 flak-panzer
Since the Flakpanzer development using a PzKpfw VI chassis took too much time, another flak-panzer was developed in late 1943 as an interim solution using the chassis of the panzer 38(t).
Since the fire power of the Flakpanzer 38 was insufficient, the new Flakpanzer build on a PzKpfw IV chassis should have a 2cm Flakvierling 38 or a 3.7cm Flak 43.
The FlakPanzer IV "Ostwind" (East Wind) was similar to the Wirbelwind, which it was intended to replace, but carried the more powerful 3.7cm AA gun in a different turret.

 Flakpanzer IV Mobelwagen
These were just two of several quite effective items of self-propelled anti-aircraft equipment> Priority was initially given to furnishing assault guns and tank destroyers (panzerjaeger) to the aarmoured divisions and the development of full-track AA tanks did not take place until 1942-43, the first vehicles of this type entering service in 1943.
This was the Flakpanzer 38(t) which consisted of a 2 cm Flak 38 mounted on the hull of the ex-Czeck PzKpfw 38(t) tank.
This type was known as the Flakpanzer IV Mobelwagen and BMM of Prague and Alkett built 211 of them on the chassis of the Panzer IV Ausf, H or J. The Mobelwagen was essentially a standard Panzer IV hull and chassis with hinged armoured flaps 10 mm thick.

In 1942 and 1943, number of PzKpfw 38(t) had their turrets removed and were converted to driver training vehicle that late in the war were mounted with wood burning generators.
Only 50 to 70 Aufklarungspanzer 38(t) armed with 20mm gun were built from late 1943 to early 1944 and only 2 Aufklarungspanzer 38(t) armed with 75mm gun were built in 1944.
Their armament and armor protection proved to be inadequate and from November of 1943 to February of 1944, only 141 were produced by BMM (Praga/CKD) from the original order for 150.

The Panzer Divisions had fairly strong antiaircraft units on their rosters since the beginning of the war, but their towed guns could not be emplaced quickly enough to help tanks operating in the terrain.
The light tank PzKpfw 38(t), famous for its exellent riding qualities and dependability, was one of the leading candidates for the Flakpanzer program.
The original order for a Flakpanzer 38(t), armed with a single barrel 2cm Flak 38, was for 150 vehicles, but only 140 were made, last of them in January-February 1944.

The former was developed as the Flakpanzer 38(t), with one 20mm FlaK 38 cannon on a Czechoslovak light tank chassis, and had not proved satisfactory, and the new type entered production in 1943.

There is an introduction that gives an overview of the SP guns and explains some of the designations, although I am not sure about the author's explanation of why the vehicles were called Ausf.
This book is ideal for modelers on a budget, those new to the hobby, or those with only a passing interest in these vehicles.
