I think itd be an awesome sidegrade to the Puma S1 (if the Puma S1 comes with the rework of the entire Puma vehicle which I suspect). CV9035NL MLU would come with better firepower and hardkill APS, Puma S1 would come with MUCH stronger base armor (if the rework comes)
There’s also just the fact that sweden really REALLY doesnt need more IFV’s (or MBT’s) from other nations. They are already absolutely dominating top tier and their playerbase is beyond greedy with vehicle additions, asking for any and all vehicles tested and or in service with ANY Scandinavian country.
Germany on the other hand, needs more IFV’s pretty badly, and is significantly inferior to sweden in depth and capabilities, particularly at top tier.
Either that or the BMP-3 with the 2M turret, though that might be too similar. I’d say the BTR-90 would bo more fun though, with that speed it’d have to be 10.7 I’d say
No, it’s entirely reasonable. It’s a development of a Swedish vehicle, all of which are in the Swedish tree. Having a unified chain of command doesn’t mean it’s in service with the German army, and the Netherlands isn’t an established subtree. The argument for the CV9035NL being German is identical to the argument for the 2A4M Can being British, which you were vehemently opposed to here. Meanwhile, the vehicle being Swedish follows the exact reasoning of the 2A4M Can being German- that’s the creator of the base vehicle that was upgraded.
when there’s no infantry in the game that’s kinda just what an IFV is 🤷
light vehicle with autocannon and possibly ATGMs, excluding SPAA. Most are true IFVs designed IRL to carry troops but some aren’t and there’s no reason to exclude them from game discussion because of a lack of a feature not modelled anyways
It’s a “multi role” so to speak. It’s main objective is to Fight Infantry, it’s secondary objective is to engage enemy armor. Fighting Infantry? In a vehicle!? Hmm, interesting. As for the BMP-2M, as an example, because they are similar, is considered an IFV.
IFV, stands for Infantryfightingvehicle. Meaning that it, fightsinfantry. Not all IFV’s carry troops, it is a common misconception, and most IFV’s do carry Infantry, to be a dual purpose vehicle, and also combat enemy infantry in support of the ones they carried, but not all of them are like this.
