the ** mm (commonly called the eighty-eight) was a german anti-aircraft and anti-tank artillery from world war ii. it was widely used by germany throughout the war, and was one of the most recognized german of that conflict. development of the original model led to a wide variety of.

the name applies to a series of related, the first one officially called the 8.8 cm flak 18, the improved 8.8 cm flak 36, and later the 8.8 cm flak 37.[n 1] flak is a contraction of german flugzeugabwehrkanone[3][n 2] meaning "aircraft-defense cannon", the original purpose of the eighty-eight. in english, "flak" became a generic term for ground anti-aircraft fire. in informal german use, the were universally known as the acht-acht ("eight-eight").[n 3]

the versatile carriage allowed the eighty-eight to be fired in a limited anti-tank mode when still on its wheels;[2] it could be completely emplaced in only two-and-a-half minutes.[2] its successful use as an improvised anti-tank led to the development of a tank based upon it: the 8.8 cm kwk 36, with the "kwk" abbreviation standing for kampfwagenkanone (literally "battle vehicle cannon", or "tank cannon"). this served as the main armament of the tiger i heavy tank.

in addition to these krupp designs, rheinmetall later created a more powerful anti-aircraft, the 8.8 cm flak 41,[n 1] which was produced in relatively small numbers. krupp responded with another prototype of the long-barreled ** mm, which was further developed into the anti-tank and tank destroyer 8.8 cm pak 43 used for the elefant and jagdpanther, and turret-mounted 8.8 cm kwk 43 heavy tank of the tiger ii.
