About the Vehicle:
The Flugabwehrkanonenpanzer Gepard entered service in the 1970s, combining a Leopard 1 chassis with a fully automated turret mounting two Oerlikon 35mm cannons. Its advanced radar system allowed it to track and engage fast, low-flying targets, while the mobility of the Leopard chassis ensured it could keep up with frontline armoured units. For the Bundeswehr, the Gepard was a critical shield against Warsaw Pact aircraft.
