Historical background and use

The 2 cm Flak 38 gun was developed at the turn of the 1930s by Germany as the successor to the earlier Flak 30 model. This weapon was a compact 20 mm automatic cannon, widely used by Luftwaffe, Kriegsmarine, as well as Wehrmacht units on all World War II fronts. The Flak 38 played a key role in the Luftwaffe's defense against Allied attacks, and was also used to defend convoys and military infrastructure. The gun was in service from the beginning of the war until its end (1939–1945).
