As World War II progressed and German forces lost air superiority under increasing Allied air raids, Germany sought to strengthen its ground-to-air defence with self-propelled anti-aircraft guns based on tank and half-track chassis. One such vehicle was the 8-ton half-track Sd.Kfz. 7/2, which used the proven Sd.Kfz. 7 chassis previously employed to tow 88mm guns, but was fitted with its own 3.7cm anti-aircraft cannon capable of firing up to 160 rounds per minute. Introduced in 1943, later variants also featured armour protection around the driver’s position and radiator.

This 1/35 scale plastic model kit accurately captures the distinctive form of the German Sd.Kfz. 7/2 half-track and its mounted 3.7cm Flak cannon. The complex half-track suspension is realistically reproduced, while the rear tailgate can be assembled in either the raised or lowered position for added display flexibility. Plastic netting is also included to enhance realism. The anti-aircraft gun itself is finely detailed, with careful attention paid to the breech and mount, and the kit also includes both explosive and armour-piercing shell parts.
