The FlaK 30 was one of the most significant light anti-aircraft guns used by the Wehrmacht. It debuted even before the start of World War II and served throughout the conflict on all fronts. It took part, among others, in the September Campaign during the invasion of Poland in 1939, then in the French offensive of 1940, as well as during battles on the Eastern Front and in North Africa. As a versatile weapon, it was used not only in its primary anti-aircraft role but also to support infantry against ground targets, greatly increasing its combat value.

The Das Werk model stands out with excellent proportions and faithful reproduction of the gun’s characteristic elements, such as the cooled barrel, complex aiming mechanism, and realistic base wheel. The use of high-quality plastic ensures sharp details, and the inclusion of laser-cut photo-etched extras allows for an even higher level of historical accuracy.
