To compensate for the cannons low rate of fire, 4 of these cannons were mounted together to create the Flakvierling 38. The mount featured collapsible seats, ammo cartridge racks, a three-legged base, and could be rotated via hand wheels, with the guns themselves fired via two foot pedals,each of which controlled a pair of diametrically opposed cannons. In basic form, the Flakvierling38 was loaded onto a 2-wheeled mount for towing to deployment points, but it was also fitted onto halftracks, tank chassis, ships, barges, and trains to provide close-range air defense against Allied fighter-bombers.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e*High-quality 1\/48 scale assembly model kit of the German Flakvierling 38 anti-aircraft gun.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e*Quad-20mm cannons are linked to gunsight.
