Comments by "Mitch Richards" (@mitchrichards1532) on "Discussing the Strategic Bombing Campaign WW2, Order 270 and more... Patreon Q&A 7" video.
3:15 Its 75% of the 88mm guns (and larger, ie. 128mm) in the Luftwaffe FLAK arm, which consisted of two branches, fixed guns and mobile formations. The Army/Heer, was not involved in this. The FLAK formations that fought the air war over the Reich is still the Luftwaffe btw... So at 3:45 you have it completely wrong. The Army/Heer retained its dual purpose 88mm guns, the Luftwaffe mobile FLAK units on the Eastern front were pulled out. I suggest you research the Luftwaffe FLAK branch, since it was about equal the size of the Army's entire artillery park during the war. There were a total of 29 flak divisions.
