History.

The French anti-aircraft gun from the Second World War was designed in cooperation with the Musée Dunkerque 1940 (Dunkirk War Museum), which tells the poignant story of the defense of Dunkirk and Operation Dynamo in late May and early June 1940. These events had a huge impact on the course of warfare, and the memory of them is kept alive not only thanks to the museum and history textbooks, but also the famous film adaptation.

The Canon de 90mm anti-aircraft gun was the successor to the 1926 model, which had a reputation for being very accurate and reliable. A modified version was produced in small numbers before the war. Modele 1939s captured by the Germans received the designation 9cm Flak M.39(f) and were kept in service throughout the war.
