3cm Flak 38/103 "Jaboschreck" – a brief history:
The Flak 38/103 Jaboschreck anti-aircraft guns were Nazi Germany's response to the increasing Allied air superiority, especially at low altitudes where Allied fighters and ground-attack bombers (commonly referred to by the Germans as "Jabo") frequently attacked German supply lines and units. The gun was among the most modern of its era—characterized by a high rate of fire, significant firepower, and mobility thanks to its dedicated transport trailer.

Historic use:
Flak 38/103 Jaboschreck units were primarily used by the German army (Wehrmacht and Luftwaffe) in the final years of WWII, especially during the defense of the Reich against Allied air raids and in direct engagements at the end of the war (1944–1945). They were highly valued for their rapid redeployment capability and effectiveness against aerial targets.
