The Flakpanzer 38(t), officially named Flakpanzer 38(t) auf Selbstfahrlafette 38(t) Ausf M (SdKfz 140), was a German self-propelled anti-aircraft gun used in World War II. The Flakpanzer 38(t) was designed around the chassis of the LT-38, a pre-war Czech design, which following the German occupation was produced for the Wehrmacht as the Panzer 38(t) until it was no longer effective.

CKD Sd.Kfz.140 Flakpanzer 38(t)

Designed originally for the Czech military, the LT vz 38 was produced as the Panzer 38(t) after the German occupation of Czechoslovakia in 1938. In comparison to Germany's Panzer I and Panzer II tanks at the time, the Panzer 38(t) was well armed and extremely reliable, prompting Germany to produce more than 1400 examples. When it became clear that the design was outclassed by the Soviet T-34, its chassis and drivetrain continued to be developed into the Marder III mobile anti-tank gun and Jagdpanzer 38(t) Hetzer tank destroyer.

  • Molded resin construction with no assembly required.

  • Pad printed markings and placards that won't fade or peel like decals.
  • Clear acrylic display case to protect model.

Why Resin?
It's very expensive to produce die-casting molds, and manufacturers must sell a large number of models from each mold in order to recoup development costs. Some subjects are so obscure that it's difficult to sell large quantities of them. Resin-casting is a much simpler and less expensive process, and manufacturers can use it to make limited runs of models that can't be cost effectively manufactured in diecast metal. With resin-cast models, collectors can add fascinating and unusual subjects to their collections without the time and difficulty of assembling and painting a model kit.
