Check out that 3.7cm Flak 43! I hope it's improved from their previous Flak 43..it was ok but I wasn't blown away. Looks like it's the Zwilling with "over and under" mounting. I get the impression that these were rare, however, there's a wonderful collection of photos from a a crew in what looks like Germany in 1945, not sure since I don't have a source. Cheers.

I saw one of these at Aberdeen Proving grounds. This is neat. May have to get one.

There are three Flakzwilling 43s left in the world, from what I've been able to determine. The Aberdeen gun is now at Ft. Sill under my care. It is the only one in the US. Definitely looking forward to this kit!
