This characteristic also made it an exceptionally lethal anti-tank weapon, as many Allied tank crews found to their cost. Consequently the 88 was also used as a conventional artillery piece. As one infantryman remarked, the 88 was “good against everything”...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 88 saw service on every front the Germans fought on during the Second World War. The 88 was capable of penetrating up to 108mm of armour plate at ranges of up to 1,100 yards. Its fearsome reputation grew immensely during its service in the Western Desert where it was one of the few weapons capable of taking on the British Matilda II Infantry tanks. A similar scenario played out on the Eastern Front when the 88 was among the few weapons that could tackle Soviet T-34 and KV tanks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContains one plastic Flak 37, seven metal Waffen-SS crew figures, an MDF base and game accessories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Warlord Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48018715771123,"sku":"126377","price":33.25,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0706\/8699\/8771\/files\/126377-waffen-ss-8_8cm-flak-37-402212109-1.webp?v=1781208339","url":"https:\/\/radaddel.de\/en\/products\/waffen-ss-8-8cm-flak-37","provider":"Radaddel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
