Sometimes in war, equipment gets captured, well AFV Club is bringing us a captured Bofors in DunkelGrau.

The latest announcement from AFV Club is another Bofors, this time in use by the Germans. The latest version of the famed Bofors is the FLaK 28 4cm AA Gun. While the builder could do this version from any of the previous releases, this version may sway someone to have to buy one, or get another. It should also be noted that most of the German Bofors were actually captured Polish weapons.

Good for AFV Club for getting the most out of their molds. Sounds like another one for my German AA collection, though it seems any Bofors kit would do in a pinch

I am not aware of any major modifications to any captured weapons, excepting some tanks from early on in the war.

Getting shot down by your own weapons. Never fun...
