What's the story with this vehicle?

Playing the Germans in late 1941, I realize my units are in need of some 400 of these vehicles. No worries, I think, and look up production - which turns out to be around four after Eastern Front modification. So provided I take no losses EVER, I'll have the deficit covered by .... late 1943.

Is this historical? And if so, why on earth did the Germans create units with a ToE any moron could see they would be unable to fill?

In early 1942 the company flak SPs are dissolved, which adds a little 10/4 of available to the divisions. Then in October 41 the AAMG flak gas SP you captured are used in your TOE instead of the missing 10/4. but despite this in 1942 you will always be in need of SP flak because the need increases sharply with the update of TOE Panzer divisions which greatly increases the need. one of the solutions would be to dissolve SP flak battalions which is unfortunately not possible.

in mid 42 you'll get the 10/5 as replacement for 10/4 with increased production.
