GERMAN Sd. Ah 52 37MM FLAK 36/37 AMMUNITION CARRIAGE TRAILER

Description

The Sonderanhanger 52(Special Trailer 52) was a small light weight single-axle trailer with U shapped frame, designed to mount the 2cm Flak Gun. However it was also used as a basis for an ammunition limber, carrying the 3.7cm ammunition for the Flak 36/37 and Flak 38 guns. The Sd.Ah. 52 could carry a payload of 1,700 kg in its simple box body with side access doors. In combat the Sd.Ah 52 was often towed by a second tractor, the first towing the gun. However larger vehicles such as the SdKfz.7 with Flak gun mounted on the cargo bed, could also tow the Sd.Ah. 52 ammunition trailer. The trailer was used on most battle fronts. (Scale : 1/35e)
