Das Werk DW35005 2cm Salvenmaschinenkanone SMK 18 - Typ 21/35 is a precisely crafted plastic model kit, representing a German multi-barreled anti-aircraft gun from World War II. The kit has been designed in the popular 1/35 modeling scale, allowing for faithful reproduction of original details and easy integration into dioramas as well as collections of vehicles and artillery from this era.

The 2cm SMK 18 (Salvenmaschinenkanone), also known as Type 21/35, was an innovative weapon developed in Germany at the turn of the 1920s and 1930s. Its special feature was the ability to fire volleys from four barrels simultaneously, which significantly increased the density of fire when engaging enemy aircraft. Although its efficiency was limited compared to later solutions and it was not widely implemented, it represented an important stage in the development of German anti-aircraft artillery. It was tested and used mainly as experimental armament during the interwar period and the early stages of World War II.

The Das Werk DW35005 model is made of high-quality plastic, which ensures the durability of the construction and excellent reproduction of complex mechanical details. The kit includes precisely molded parts, a realistic barrel system, and rich detailing of the firing mechanism and ammunition components. The model does not include glue or paints, allowing you to individually select finishing materials according to your own preferences.

• high historical accuracy and detail
• perfect addition to World War II dioramas
• option to display the gun in either combat or transport position
• easy compatibility with other 1/35 scale kits

We recommend this model to experienced modelers, military collectors, and enthusiasts of military technology history. The difficulty level of the set is rated at 4/5 due to the complexity of the parts and the requirement for precise assembly of small components. If you are looking for a realistic model of a rare German anti-aircraft gun, the DW35005 is an excellent choice both for display and for expanding historical dioramas.
