The 40M Nimrod was a Hungarian self-propelled anti-aircraft gun from the Second World War. The car was powered by a single Bussing-NAG L8V or Ganz IP VGT 107 Type II engine with 150 HP. Its main armament was a single 40mm Bofors L / 60 anti-aircraft gun. Serial production was carried out in 1942-1943. In total, about 140 vehicles of this type were built. The 40M Nimrod was developed on the basis of the M38 Toldi and was very similar to the Swedish Landsverk L-62, which was in turn developed for the Finnish armed forces. Compared to the latter, the 40M Nimrod differed primarily in the shape of the tower. The crew of the vehicle also increased from 5 to 6 people. Interestingly, it was originally assumed that the new vehicle would act as a light tank destroyer, but the disastrous experience in fighting such vehicles as the T-34 and the KV-1 eventually led to the M40 being reclassified as a self-propelled anti-aircraft gun in 1943.
