| This page is about the German SPAA Sd.Kfz.222. For the Chinese version, see Sd.Kfz.222 (China). |
Contents
Description
The le.Pz.Sp.Wg. (2 cm) Ausf.B 5.Serie is a rank I German SPAA with a battle rating of 1.7 (AB) and 2.0 (RB/SB). It was introduced in Update "Sky Guardians".
General info
Survivability and armour
Armor protection is, mediocre, to say the least. Almost the entire car is comprised of 8 mm sloped steel plates, which is barely enough to stop normal 7.62 mm AP bullets. HMGs and autocannons will be your biggest bain as they will easily shred your car up from any angle. In fact, if aimed at precisely from certain angles the 8 mm of armor can be pierced by the larger coaxial MGs, such as British BESAs, Swedish 8 mm MGs and even your own 7.92 MG34s (this can be a rare occurence, but don't discount it). Only the front of the car, with a 30 mm radiator housing and 14.5 mm front plate, can offer protection against rifle caliber fire, but anything bigger than that will basically fling you back to the garage. The open turret also means that chemical shells (i.e. HE, HEAT and the HESH round from the Lancia 3ro) are an instant death even if they miss; avoid them at all times.
Armour type:
- Rolled homogeneous armour
| Armour | Front (Slope angle) | Sides | Rear |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hull | 30 mm (35°) Lower glacis 14.5 mm (33°) Upper glacis |
8 mm (35°) Top 8 mm (34°) Bottom |
8 mm (39°) |
| Turret | 8 mm (33°) Turret front 8 mm Gun mantlet |
8 mm (35°) | 8 mm (35°) |
Notes:
- Mudguards and stowage boxes are 4 mm thick.
- Wheels (including the spare tire on the right side) are 10 mm thick.
Mobility
The Sd.Kfz.222 moves rapidly on roads, less so on regular ground and will get bogged down in soft terrain. It is easy to control at speed and can engage enemies quickly since it needs little time to come to a full stop.

Armaments
Main armament
Give the reader information about the characteristics of the main gun. Assess its effectiveness in a battle based on the reloading speed, ballistics and the power of shells. Do not forget about the flexibility of the fire, that is how quickly the cannon can be aimed at the target, open fire on it and aim at another enemy. Add a link to the main article on the gun: {{main|Name of the weapon}}. Describe in general terms the ammunition available for the main gun. Give advice on how to use them and how to fill the ammunition storage.

Usage in battles
Describe the tactics of playing in the vehicle, the features of using vehicles in the team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view but instead give the reader food for thought. Describe the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).
Pros and cons
Summarise and briefly evaluate the vehicle in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark its pros and cons in a bulleted list. Try not to use more than 6 points for each of the characteristics. Avoid using categorical definitions such as "bad", "good" and the like - use substitutions with softer forms such as "inadequate" and "effective".
Pros:
Fast and nimble.
Fast rate of fire.
can research HVAP in modifications in comparison to Chinese version.
Cons:
low belt capacity (10 rounds) in comparison to Chinese version (20 rounds).

History
Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the vehicle in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Vehicle-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />. This section may also include the vehicle's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === In-game description ===, also if applicable).
Media
Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.

Links to the articles on the War Thunder Wiki that you think will be useful for the reader, for example:
- reference to the series of the vehicles;
- links to approximate analogues of other nations and research trees.
