The Kugelblitz was a German Anti-Aircraft Tank (Flakpanzer) with an enclosed turret. Only a handful were finished, in this video we look at the capabilities, development, origin, production
and operational history of the Kugelblitz. Additionally, we also look at the aspect if it was a dead end, since I discovered production plans that suggest it would only produced for a short time period.
