Good, i’ll be the CV90 hiding in the background as it fights with the 2S38

I think the KF41 could carry some if wanted but don’t think they’ve decided on it yet, maybe in the future

Edit:
Not finding any drone options for any CV90s but some obviously have SPIKE and AKERON missiles that could work instead

  • The newer model, CV90 MK4 has a Counter-UAS system, the mast on the turret searches for drones and sends that info to both the gunner and nearby allied vehicles
    At which point you use the main gun with air-burst and let loose or just let the APS system handle it if they get close

But i don’t really trust air-burst shells that much as they seem rather RNG when it comes to drones in WT when i use the CV, can put a whole mag into a drone and you either do no damage or just get “Hit”
Sometimes they even struggle against normal Jets, as if a bunch of fragments didn’t just go flying everywhere

Have any devs seen this? Would this not be a good fit for USA high tier ground tree?

And what do you know about the Israeli involvement in the development of the 50 mm gun?

Not much tbh, just provided specs from the site. I know Picatinny had involvement and provided the design to Northrop Grumman. If you have more info please share

I think this vehicle will be highly similar to GDLS’s new XM30 presenter. This is speculatory but I think it will likely use the same hull and similar turret but modified to further meet new requirements. The rear hatch will likely be modified to meet the Army’s requirement/focus on a quick disembark from the vehicle, especially in an emergency situation. As for the Hexagon tiling, I don’t think it will be included in the final design.
