■Product Description
[The "Devil's Quadruple Mount" that exudes powerful offensive capabilities]
During World War II, the German 20mm quadruple anti-aircraft gun Type 38 was a significant improvement over conventional single-barreled anti-aircraft guns, designed to counter the increasing speed of ground attack aircraft that were invading from low altitudes. Boasting a high rate of fire of up to 1,800 rounds per minute and 800 rounds under normal conditions, it was feared by Allied pilots and known as the "Devil's Quadruple Mount." It was compact and easy to handle when firing or transporting on a trailer, and was used not only as a regular mobile artillery piece but also for the defense of airfields and mounted on various anti-aircraft self-propelled guns. It solidified Germany's air defenses throughout the war.
