1/35 DKM Single 20mm C/30 Flak (Elevated): Precision Naval Defense

Strengthen the anti-aircraft perimeter of your Kriegsmarine collection with the meticulously engineered 1/35 DKM Single 20mm C/30 Flak (Elevated). As the primary early-war light AA defense for the German Navy, the C/30 was a mainstay on everything from S-Boats and U-Boats to heavy cruisers. This specific Elevated Mounting variant provides the increased vertical clearance and visibility required for high-stakes naval dioramas and large-scale maritime projects.

Engineering Precision & Tactical Fidelity

High-Fidelity Mechanical Detail: At the impressive 1/35 scale, the industrial complexity of German naval weaponry is fully realized. This model captures the C/30’s architecture with exquisite fidelity, featuring the accurately rendered cooling ribs on the barrel, the complex sighting mechanism, and the specialized elevated pedestal mount. Every structural line is rendered with architectural sharpness, transforming your deck station into a functional-looking combat position.

Historically Accurate Configuration: Meticulously researched to depict the early-to-mid war naval mounting. This replica includes:

• Elevated Pedestal: Captures the unique height and structural bracing seen on vessels requiring clear lines of fire over deck obstacles.
• Precision Barrel: Rendered with the correct taper and muzzle brake detail essential for 1/35 scale realism.
• Gunner's Controls: Includes the intricate handwheels and shoulder rests for realistic crew interaction.

Premium High Detail Resin Grey: Crafted in professional-grade High Detail Resin Grey, this mount offers a level of surface smoothness and structural clarity that traditional plastic cannot match.

• Sharp Feature Definition: Captures minute details like rivet lines on the base and the mechanical linkages of the breech with surgical precision.
• Professional Finish: Provides an ultra-smooth, non-porous base that is optimized for high-quality primers and specialized Kriegsmarine "Dunkelgrau" palettes.

Key Features & Specifications

• Accurate 1/35 Scale: Precision-scaled for seamless integration with 1/35 scale S-100 Schnellboote, U-Boat bridge conversions, or coastal battery dioramas.
• Hollowed Engineering: Expertly designed to reduce topside weight while maintaining the robust, "heavy steel" appearance of the weapon.
• Unpainted Finish: Provides a blank canvas for your artistic vision. Recreate the standard Dunkelgrau 51 or the weathered Hellgrau 50 used in the North Sea.
• Museum-Grade Detail: Ideal for high-stakes dioramas where mechanical accuracy is paramount.

A Canvas for Naval Artistry

Unpainted for Total Customization: Arriving in its raw resin finish, the C/30 Flak serves as the ultimate starting point for advanced weathering:

• The "Atlantic Raider" Look: Apply a base of dark grey with heavy salt-fading. The smooth resin surface is perfect for oil-washes to define the intricate breech and sighting mechanisms.
• Realistic Weathering: The 1/35 scale is the ideal playground for detailing. Apply light metallic "scuffing" on the shoulder rests, grease staining around the traverse gears, and subtle rust-streaks near the mounting bolts to achieve high levels of authenticity and realism.

Upgrade your Kriegsmarine fleet with this impressive and historically accurate 1/35 DKM Single 20mm C/30 Flak (Elevated).
