This topic was inspired to me by some interesting photos posted by Cantacuzino here: http://www.worldwar2.ro/forum/index.php?showtopic=1404&st=0

Did Romanian army use mobile (self-propelled) AA weapons during WW2, even some improvised ones? If yes, what models, where were they assembled?

To what types of units were they attached (supposedly armored/mobile units)? Were the 20 and 25 mm AA canons used by the Romanian 1st Armored Division self tracked?

Were the Russian captured AA trucks (or any other types of AA mobile weapons) pressed into action (or modified) by the Romanian Army?
