Explore the German Flakpanzer IV Wirbelwind in 1/35 Scale

The German Flakpanzer IV Wirbelwind was a pivotal development during World War II, designed to counter the growing threat of Allied air superiority. Built on the robust Panzer IV chassis, this anti-aircraft vehicle was equipped with a distinctive rotating turret and four 20mm Flak guns. This model by Tamiya captures the essence of the Wirbelwind, emphasizing its historical significance and engineering prowess.

Introduced in 1944, the Wirbelwind was engineered to meet stringent military requirements: a rotating turret that housed three crew members, dual gun mounts, and a compact profile under 3 meters in height. The turret, armored with 16mm thick plates, provided adequate protection while allowing for effective operation. With an impressive ammunition capacity and firing rate, the Wirbelwind played a crucial role in defending against low-flying aircraft.
