Descriptionof Sd.Kfz.140 Flakpanzer 38(t) Gepard
Manufacturer

The self-propelled anti-aircraft defence vehicle Sd. Kfz. 140 Flakpanzer 38 "Gepard" was developed during the Second World War on the chassis of the Czechoslovakian Panzer 38(t) light tank. The aim was to provide the Wehrmacht with an effective means of protecting armoured units and mobile columns from air attack. the mechanical reliability and manoeuvrability offered by the Panzer 38(t) chassis provided the technical basis for the installation of a 20 mm Flak 38 anti-aircraft gun on a rotating, protected platform, which also provided protection for the operating crews. the main armament was often used not only for anti-aircraft defence, but also against stationary targets and to support ground troops in close combat. Over time, the Flakpanzer 38 "Gepard" was increasingly supplemented by other self-propelled guns with greater firepower, such as the Wirbelwind and the Ostwind.
