OVERVIEW:
The Flak eighty-eight is probably the best known artillery piece of World War II. It was not one gun, but a series of anti-aircraft guns officially called the 8,8 cm Flak 18, 36 or 37, and could also include newer and more powerful models, the FlaK 41 and 43, although these were different weapons. FlaK is a German short form of Flugabwehr-Kanone (hence the capital K, nowadays one word) meaning anti-aircraft gun, the original purpose of the eighty-eight.

ACS is a anarchy where you can get away with any stupid comment, if you like ACS fine but you're wrong. No matter what logic you come up with. It is only "fun" in an online world were these conditions of anonymity exist and people can escape their lives and play alpha pseudo intellectual.

Always found it interesting that they'd (and other AC nations) use such an antiquated piece of equipment when there are plenty of modern AAA systems.
