This is great because I believe the only other one is/was a resin kit at great price from Germany. Can't recall the maker, but this is a big improvement on cost.

Didn't TMD used to make one of these as well? Can't remember if it was a full conversion or if you had to supply the FLAK gun. Either way, an interesting alternative!

Could you be thinking about this one:
https://www.modellbau-schatton.de/index.php/shop/mercedes-4-500-gepanzert-mit-aufgebauter-5-cm-flak-41-und-en
from Schatton Modellbau?
Sort of the same except for a larger gun and that it uses the Mercedes truck of similar size and load capacity.

Looks great I think. Never did an Azimut full resin kit though.
