Short Description:

The 20 mm lvakan m/40‑70 is a Bofors-designed, fully automatic anti-aircraft cannon using 20×70 mm unitary ammunition. It features a vertical sliding breech, recoil and feed springs, a muzzle brake, and a 25‑round magazine. The gun is mounted on a lowerable cross carriage with wheeled mobility and spring suspension for transport.

The barrel length is 70 calibers, with a recoil stroke of 115–130 mm. Elevation ranges from −5° to +85°, with wide horizontal traverse. Mechanical rate of fire is 6 rounds/sec, maximum range 5,000 m, and total system weight 313 kg.

Originally designated lvakan m/40, the strengthened m/40‑70 variant entered service later and remained in use until 1991, with multiple mount and sight configurations depending on role.

Gaijooble needs to start adding TT armored cars, literally no tech tree has a bunch of them(except Italy…)

5

Britain does technically, the ratel’s, G6, Concept, ect ect only Britain and Italy have been the focus for wheeled vehicles, gaijin would rather die than focus on any other tree aside from them when it comes to wheeled vehicles
