Expand your collection with the Sd.Kfz. 8 & 8.8-cm Flak 36 (DAK) set and experience the firepower of the “Eight-Eight” in the deserts of Africa! Immerse yourself in the sun-drenched, barren landscapes of North Africa, where mobility, firepower, and reliability determined the outcome of battles. With the Sd.Kfz. 8 & 8.8-cm Flak 36 (DAK) set, you can build one of the most iconic artillery sets of the Afrika Korps: the legendary 8.8-cm gun and a powerful half-track artillery tractor adapted to the harsh desert conditions.
This set is ideal for history enthusiasts, realistic model builders, and anyone creating dioramas that capture the atmosphere of the African campaign during World War II.
The Mainstay of German Desert Artillery
The 8.8-cm Flak 36, known as the famous “Eight-Eight,” gained fame not only as an effective anti-aircraft gun but also as one of the most dangerous anti-tank weapons of World War II. In North Africa, where heavy tanks were often in short supply, its firepower repeatedly determined victory or defeat. Towed by powerful Sd.Kfz. 8 tractors, it became a mobile pillar of the German desert artillery.

Why choose this set? The 1:35 scale allows you to fully appreciate the proportions, structural details, and historical silhouette of both the 8.8-cm Flak 36 and the Sd.Kfz. 8 tractor. The models are large enough to showcase the complexity of the mechanisms, yet fit perfectly in a display case, on a collector’s shelf, or in an elaborate diorama. Thanks to the modular design, the trailer can be detached and two pairs of road wheels removed to place the gun directly on the ground.
Two models in one set: In one box, you’ll find the legendary 8.8-cm Flak 36 on a Special Trailer 201 and the powerful half-track artillery tractor Sd.Kfz. 8. This is a complete representation of the Afrika Korps’ mobile artillery.
Two Luftwaffe artillerymen figures: Highly detailed figures of an officer and an artilleryman in characteristic desert uniforms, including one wearing a German tropical helmet typical of Afrika Korps units, complement the models and enable realistic scenes of gun operation, command, and securing the firing position.

Movable parts: The rotating gun mount, adjustable barrel, and sophisticated mechanisms make the cannon look and function just like the real thing. Detailed chassis and realistic tracks of the Sd.Kfz. 8 half-track vehicle: Every element has been designed with durability and historical accuracy in mind.
Ideal for building dioramas of the African campaign—the set is perfect for creating dynamic scenes: a firing position in the desert, a marching column, or preparations for an artillery barrage. The layout possibilities are virtually endless for recreating battles in the desert sand.
Intuitive building instructions – The clear instructions guide you step by step through the entire assembly process, making the set suitable for both beginners and experienced collectors.
Collector’s accessories – The set includes an ammunition box and several ammunition parts for the cannon, as well as a white plaque made of snap-together bricks featuring the model name and scale. This is not only functional but also a great way to display the model at home, in the office, or in the living room.
High-Quality Craftsmanship – Durable prints, solid construction, and a detailed reproduction of technical features ensure that the set meets the expectations of collectors and enthusiasts of World War II history alike.

Build your own scene from the African front and experience the atmosphere of one of the most challenging campaigns of World War II. The Sd.Kfz. 8 & 8.8 cm Flak 36 (DAK) set combines history, realism, and the joy of building, allowing you to recreate a legendary weapon using building blocks.
