About the Möbelwagen

Into the latter half World War II, the Wehrmacht, having lost atmosphere superiority toward Allies, considered the growth of anti-aircraft cars. The very first car to utilize the framework for the Panzer IV tank as a base ended up being the Self Propelled AA Gun Mobelwagen. The mass-production model started to be manufactured in February 1944. It had been designed with a strong 3.7 Flak 43 cannon effective at firing 250 shots/min, and dense armored dishes surrounding the upper the main car, which could be raised or lowered for horizontal firing. By 1945, a total of 240 vehicles were produced, most of that have been deployed toward western front, providing a vicious defense against approaching fighters and bombers associated with Allies.
