Footnotes

1. 2cm Kw.K.30 & 38. Source: Jentz, Thomas L: Tank Combat in North Africa. Although the Kw.K.30 & 38 were developed from the Flak 30 & 38, respectively, the accuracy is specified only for the Kw.K.30 & 38 in the reference. It is likely that the accuracy for the Flak 30 & 38 would be similar. [up]
