 == History ==
-The Breda Mod.35 was one of the main Italian anti-aircraft guns during World War II. Designed as a dual-purpose gun for the Royal Italian Army, it was designed in 1932, but not adopted until 1935. An effective weapon against the light tanks of the inter-war period, the Breda Modello 35 was towed on a two-wheel trailer however, the carriage was fragile, so it was often mounted on the bed of a truck. The Breda Mod.35 first saw combat during the Spanish Civil War serving as the cannon for Nationalist German Panzer I tanks to combat the Republicans' [[T-26|Soviet T-26s]]. Other vehicles that notably mounted the gun were the [[AB 41]] armored car, [[AS 42]] scout car, and [[L6/40]] light tank.

-In other foreign nations, 88 were purchased by Finland during the Winter War in 1940 with the last examples arriving during the period known as the Interim Peace. These guns would see combat during the Continuation War (Finnish name for the Eastern Front), where five were lost. The guns would remain in Finnish service as anti-aircraft training weapons until the 1980s under the designation 10 ItK/35 Breda. In North Africa, several examples were captured by the UK and Commonwealth nations during Operation Compass (December 1940-Febuary 1941). These guns were frequently used by the Long Range Desert Group and in anti-aircraft units with at least one [[Marmon-Herrington Armored Car (Family)|Marmon-Herrington Armored Car Mk.II]] converted to use the Breda 35. The Chinese Nationalist Army would use the gun during the Second Sino-Japanese War (World War II in China) in both both anti-tank and anti-aircraft roles where it was quite effective. The Battle of Xinhou in 1937 saw three Japanese shot down with the Breda. Ecuador also purchased the gun from Italy guns before the Ecuador-Peruvian War of 1941 and the gun 120 guns were ordered by Yugoslavia and delivered prior to the Invasion in April 1941. After the Armistice, like most Italian weapons, the Breda Mod.35 fell into German service where it was designated the 2cm Breda(i).
