Description
The FlaRakPz 1 Roland 2 is a rank VII German self-propelled anti-aircraft vehicle
with a battle rating of 10.0 (AB) and 10.3 (RB/SB). It was introduced in Update 1.89 "Imperial Navy".
General info
Survivability and armour
Describe armour protection. Note the most well protected and key weak areas. Appreciate the layout of modules as well as the number and location of crew members. Is the level of armour protection sufficient, is the placement of modules helpful for survival in combat?
If necessary use a visual template to indicate the most secure and weak zones of the armour.

Usage in battles
- Arcade Battles
The FlaRakPz 1 does not have any additional armaments to attack other vehicles or protect itself, limiting its offensive ability towards even slightly-armoured targets. Due to this, moving any distance from the spawn point will result in death due to the thin armour and increased visibility, due to vehicle markers, making you an easy target. Both the Roland 1 and Roland 3 SAMs both have a maximum speed of 900 m/s, with payloads of 3.3 kg and 4.45 kg of Composition B respectably, more than enough to deal with the only aircraft type (helicopters) it will encounter in this game mode. Moving alongside allies or waiting in or near spawn areas - where you have the best view of the sky - will be rewarding as when engaging medium to heavily armoured units, the explosive mass of the missiles will be most useful in destroying or disabling targets, requiring knowledge of vulnerable spots on enemy vehicles to deliver a killing blow. Due to the large explosive mass of both missiles, it can hull-break light targets.

Pros and cons
Pros:
- Has Roland 3 missiles as a tier 2 modification, increasing the vehicle's offensive range to 8.5 km
- Roland 1 and Roland 3 missiles are reactive and manoeuvrable
- Active radar system with a scan range of 15 km
- Slightly higher-than-average max speed (70 km/h)
Cons:
- Significantly lower missile velocity compared to the ADATS (1200 m/s) and Stormer HVM (1400 m/s)
- Only two missiles available before a fixed-reload of 10.0 s
- Lack of additional armament for close-range or armoured targets
History
Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the vehicle in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Vehicle-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />. This section may also include the vehicle's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === In-game description ===, also if applicable).
