A simple Osty(that what I like to call it)
I made this in the beta so couldn’t release it because nobody would use it and only the few would so I waited for the update to realase(English) But i think I waited to long and so yeeah I forgot but I hope you have fun
History-
The Panzer IV's turret was removed and replaced with an open-top, hexagonal turret that housed a 3.7 cm FlaK 43. In addition to its intended role as an anti-aircraft weapon, the fast-firing gun was highly effective against light vehicles and minor fortifications. A closed-top design would have been preferable, but this was not possible due to the heavy smoke generated by the gun.
The Ostwind's main improvement over the Wirbelwind was the FlaK 43's increased range and stopping power over the 2 cm Flakvierling 38 and slightly better armor on its turret.
Although an order for 100 vehicles was placed in August 1944, only 44 vehicles were completed (37 converted from existing Panzer IVs and 7 new production vehicles) from December 1944 to March 1945, all work being carried out by Ostbau Werke in Sagan, Silesia.

——instructions——
Pitch-move forwards and backwards
Roll-turn the tank with neutral
Ag7- the hull mounted machine gun
VTOL- Turn the turret left to right
Trim- elevation of the gun
P.S.
it has a gyro turning so keep in eye on that and it has a flak capability but I think the effective range is .7 to .9km I’m using metric (even though I live in the US) so have fun shooting down aircraft good luck
