Dragon 6912 GERMAN RAILWAY GONDOLA Typ Ommr w/2cm FLAKVIERLING 38 1/35

The Dragon 6912 model represents the German railway gondola car type Ommr, equipped with the famous 2cm Flakvierling 38 anti-aircraft gun, in 1/35 scale. This unique set includes a plastic model for assembly, making it an excellent choice for advanced modelers and enthusiasts of WWII military dioramas. The kit comes from the renowned manufacturer Dragon, well-known for its attention to detail and high-quality components.

Historical context: The Ommr wagon was widely used by the Deutsches Reichsbahn and Wehrmacht units during World War II (1939-1945). It served to transport both troops and supplies behind the Eastern and Western fronts. As Allied air raids intensified, the Germans began to arm wagons with anti-aircraft guns such as the Flakvierling 38 to protect critical military transports from air attacks. The Flakvierling 38 — a quadruple-barrel 20 mm cannon — proved highly effective in this role, enabling rapid and efficient fire against enemy aircraft.
