Flak towers were large, above-ground anti-aircraft gun blockhouses used by the Luftwaffe to defend against Allied air raids on certain cities during World War II. They also served as air-raid shelters for tens of thousands of people and to coordinate air defence the Flakturm VII is in Vienna the Flakturm VIII and Flakturm VI is in Vienna to

Is possible to raise the AAA guns? I read somewhere that If you raise a gun it will not work

True, the only objects you can move vertically are the lights.

well if he somehow finds out how the runways(under static ships) work he might be able to make the guns not sink thrue and if hes able to do that then they should work fine..
Good job anyway we need such targets in here.
If you crack the code then may you also make a sub pen with flak ontop?? pretty pretty please

Model guns into tower and class it as a static ship? Only downside would be the "enemy ship destroyed" but I don't think these are meant to be destroyed;
"With concrete walls up to 3.5 metres thick, Flak towers were considered to be invulnerable to attack with the usual ordinance carried by Allied bombers, though it is unlikely that they would have withstood Grand Slam bombs which successfully penetrated much thicker reinforced concrete. Aircraft generally appeared to have avoided the flak towers. The towers were able to sustain a rate of fire of 8000 rounds per minute from their multi-level guns, with a range of up to 14km in a full 360-degree field of fire. The 3 flak towers around the outskirts of Berlin created a triangle of formidable anti-aircraft fire that covered the center of Berlin."
Interesting stuff these towers.. they really put AA cruisers into shame, nice project!

You can make this as an artillery object like any other bunker we have in game right now. I don't see a reason why it shouldn't be possible to the raise the AAA guns, btw. It is a new object and therefor the guns would have their own setup.
