7.7 cm FlaK L/35The 7.7 cm FlaK L/35 was a German 77 mm anti-aircraft gun produced by Krupp during the First World War. The origins of the 7.7 cm FlaK L/35 go back to the French Canon de 75 modèle 1897 field gun which was captured in large numbers during the first two years of World War I. A combination of factors led the Germans to issue M1897's to their troops as replacements. These included: An underestimation of light field artillery losses during the first two years of the war and an inadequate number of replacement guns being produced.
