Build a model of the 10.5 cm Flak 39 anti-aircraft gun and display this heavy anti-aircraft artillery in a realistic brick-built version!
There are constructions that don't need a legend, because they create one themselves. The 10.5 cm Flak 39 is an example of heavy anti-aircraft artillery designed with one goal in mind: effective defense against air threats. Its massive silhouette, technical complexity and uncompromising firepower made this gun one of the pillars of the German anti-aircraft defense system.
This set brings history to the world of building blocks, offering a realistic model that focuses attention on the gun itself. This is a proposition for those who are looking for something more than just a model, for those who want to build a piece of history.
10.5 cm Flak 39, a weapon for combating targets at high altitudes!
Work on the German 105 mm anti-aircraft gun began in 1933, when the development of aviation necessitated the creation of more effective weapons to combat targets at high altitudes. After testing designs developed by Krupp and Rheinmetall, the Rheinmetall design was adopted and received the designation 10.5 cm Flak 38.
Soon, its modernized version, the 10.5 cm Flak 39, was created. It was equipped with an improved electric barrel rotation and elevation system and a system for transmitting data from the central fire control station. These solutions increased the precision and effectiveness of the firing, making the Flak 39 one of the most accurate weapons of the time. These were also among the most technically advanced anti-aircraft guns of their era. Due to their large size and weight, the 105 mm caliber cannons were not used by the ground forces. However, they found widespread use in the Luftwaffe, where they served in stationary, motorized and railway batteries.
By the end of the war, approximately 1850 10.5 cm Flak 38 and 39 cannons remained in service, confirming their significant role in the heavy anti-aircraft defense system.
Why is this set worth having?
Heavy artillery in brick form - The 10.5 cm Flak 39 model attracts with its scale and massiveness, offering a completely different modeling and collecting experience than lighter artillery pieces.
Ideally suited for display - The 1:35 scale allows the model to be displayed as a standalone object or as part of a larger historical diorama.
It has movable parts - The rotating mount, adjustable barrel and refined mechanisms make the cannon look and "behave" like a real one. Building this model is not only the satisfaction of precisely assembling the bricks, but also an opportunity to learn more about the history and technology of the German forces during World War II.
Figures included - Two artillerymen figures complement the scene, giving it life and emphasizing the combat function of the cannon. The soldiers are armed with Mauser 98K and Gewehr 43 rifles. One soldier is in a gray uniform with red patches and a characteristic German helmet. The other is an experienced front-line soldier in a helmet, with his uniform top removed for comfort while working at the gun, and with an ever-present smile. He's holding a cup of coffee in his hand... or maybe something stronger?
It develops imagination and patience – Building this model is not only enjoyable but also trains concentration and manual skills.
Satisfaction from building – The solid construction and clear instructions make assembling the model a pleasant, engaging process, from the first brick to the finished cannon. Once assembled, the model is perfect as a decoration for any history and military enthusiast.
Highest quality prints – durable, abrasion-resistant and retaining sharpness even after intensive play.
Collector's additions – The set includes a weapons crate and several pieces of ammunition for the cannon, as well as a white, brick-built plaque with the model name and scale. This is not only a functional element but also a great way to display the model at home, in the office or in the living room.
