I changed the truck designation from Ford V3000S to Ford 098T vm.40 as the latter was more numerous in Finland and since all of the V3000S were possibly handed to USSR. That part is somewhat uncertain. At any rate these were very much identical trucks as far as I have been able to dig.

Here is a good look around the gun and the ammo box as well.
The video is mislabeled. There was a small amount of L-39 converted for AA use, but externally the gun didn’t look that much like 20 ItK/40 and it only had a primitive single gun mount.

There was a second video where they demonstrate usage of the gun, though without firing.
Rotation seems very light from the handcrank and the commander behind gunner can freely turn the whole thing like you can see at 1:39.
