    Isnt this what the gepard was designed for?

    EDIT: Among the SHORAD provided by Western allies, the most important include the AN/TWQ-1 Avenger, 20 of which were supplied by the United States starting late last year, and which are armed with Stinger missiles, and the German-made Gepard self-propelled anti-aircraft gun (SPAAG). Germany has supplied 52 Gepards, with further examples now due to be delivered from Jordanian stocks.

      Yes, but so far Germany has provided 52 vehicles which is probably not enough for the whole front.

      Edit: Sorry didn’t see your edit.
