Historical context of Sd.Kfz.7/2 3.7cm Flak 37 auf Selbstfahrlafette

The Sd.Kfz.7/2 was a half-track vehicle based on the Sd.Kfz.7 chassis, fitted with the effective 3.7cm Flak 37 anti-aircraft gun. These vehicles were used by the Germans from 1942, mainly in the Luftwaffe and Wehrmacht units. The main function of the Sd.Kfz.7/2 was to protect troop convoys from air attacks and provide fire support to ground units. The model represents the late version, which featured, among others, additional armor and an improved gun operating system. Such vehicles saw action on both the Eastern and Western Fronts, operating from 1942 until the end of the war.
