Description
The Sd Kfz 10 was a half-track vehicle developed by Demag AG from 1934. It was initially designated the D6, but the final production model was the D7. The 10/5 vehicle was standard Sd Kfz 10 mounted with special rear superstructure with folding sides to allow full traverse for 2cm Flak38 L/112.5 gun. In July of 1939, first 370 Sd.Kfz.10/4 were produced mounting the earlier 2cm FlaK 30. In 1941 the 2cm Flak 30 gun of Sd Kfz 10/4 was replaced with newer 2cm Flak 38 gun and the vehicle was redesignated as Sd Kfz 10/5. Mechanische Werke in Cottbus produced the last 962 Sd Kfz 10/5 vehicles from 1943 to November of 1944.
The early models were unarmoured, but some later production models (Sd Kfz 10/5) were fitted with an armoured driver’s cab (made of thin 8mm plates) and armoured plates to protect the radiator and engine. The Sd Kfz 10/5 was issued to FlaK units of the Luftwaffe and Wehrmacht.
The anti-aircraft gun was not only used against aircraft but it also provided infantry support against ground targets.
