The 5.5cm Flak (VG2) Gerät 58 was a German anti-aircraft gun used during World War II.
It was designed to replace the earlier 5cm Flak 41 gun and was intended for use against high-altitude targets.
The Gerät 58 fired a 5.5cm caliber shell and had a four-round magazine.
The gun was mounted on a six-wheeled carriage and could be towed by a variety of vehicles. It had a maximum firing rate of 120 rounds per minute and an effective range of up to 9,500 meters.
The Gerät 58 was also capable of being used in a ground support role and was used by the German army in various theaters of war.
The Gerät 58 was known for its reliability and effectiveness, and was particularly effective against Allied heavy bombers.
However, it was also a heavy and cumbersome weapon, which made it difficult to move and deploy quickly.
Despite these limitations, the Gerät 58 remained in service until the end of the war and played an important role in German air defense.
