Flakpanzer 38 (t), celým názvem 2-cm-Flak 38 auf Selbstfahrlafette Panzerkampfwagen 38 (t), někdy nesprávně označovaný jako Gepard, což může vést k záměně s nepříbuzným vozidlem Flakpanzer Gepard, bylo německé samohybné protiletadlové dělo používané během druhé světové války.

The Flakpanzer 38(t), officially named Flakpanzer 38(t) auf Selbstfahrlafette 38(t) Ausf M (SdKfz 140), was a German self-propelled anti-aircraft gun used in World War II. It is sometimes, incorrectly, referred to as the Gepard, which may lead to confusion with the unrelated Flakpanzer Gepard.

The Flakpanzer 38(t) was designed around the chassis of the LT-38, a pre-war Czech design, which following the German occupation was produced for the Wehrmacht as the Panzer 38(t) until it was no longer effective.

As the vehicle used the Ausf M chassis, the engine was located near the middle of the vehicle, and the armament was placed at the rear in a specially designed armoured section. The superstructure could fold down to allow 360-degree traverse at low elevation.

Including the single prototype, 141 Flakpanzer 38(t)s were built from November 1943 to February 1944, entering service in 1944.
