Russian 30mm, same gun as on the ZBD03/04 BMP3/BMD3, a whole heap of different BTR’s and so on
ZPZ02 is just the what the Chinese call it and in Russia its the 2A72
Obj.785
but with the 130mm LP-36 firing slipping-driving banded APFSDS

This one is strange, has it been suggested yet?
nah, very limited info
seems to be ~2 protos in 70s/80s that were used to test some form of 130mm (rifled and/or smoothbore)
One was T-72 based (likely 172MN) and the other was T-80 based (likely 785)

Didn’t they just come out with the LAV 6? I wonder why they made a new variant
To be honest, the idea/recommendation came from a short somewhere taking about “time to give the US wickedly OP IFVs/light tanks”. I have zero clue as to whether or not it would be OP, but I would personally like a US IFV with something bigger than a 30mm but not a full tank-caliber canon.
The LAV-700s are a bit older than the LAV-6 Mk II. As that photo is from a set of images that is at least 6 years old. I think it was made roughly around the same time as the LAV-6.0; it’s a sidegrade of the LAV-6/different development of the LAV-III from what I found.
With most, if not all, of that set having been exported to Saudi Arabia by Canada.
I want new game music maybe by Hiroyuki Sawano
according to some sources, possibly not 30mm. but don’t know if it’s 35 or 40 or others.
most new Chinese vehicles with 30mm gun uses a new chain gun like bushmaster.
no, at least it will be a bushmaster type as most new vehicles uses it.
Certainly doesn’t look larger than 30mm. But without further information its just guesswork.
There’s no reason to reinvent the wheel when they already have the ZPZ02 in service in multiple different platforms
Neither does it have a muzzle brake as seen on some of the newer 30mm
ZPZ02 is too old, and not a very good gun when used alone.
as for muzzle brake, this depends on specific design requirements whether it’s needed.
the new 8x8 IFV also don’t have
(possible new bushmaster like 30mm chain gun)
almost forget to reply to this, it possibly has a VLS with long range ATGM or Loitering Munition, but surely can’t be in current game
I’ve seen this theory multiple times. I think its very silly and holds little to no validity.
But as I said this is all guesswork since there’s practically no info as you know.
Without seing it fire its practically impossible to guess whether its a new 30mm or the old one

why?
the structure is there, seem very likely some kind of cold launch VLS.
Autocannon IFV’s are great in war thunder
Sure at lower BR’s

At the higher BR’s as well
I cant say I agree
Location makes no sense, one single large hatch makes no sense for a VLS (could obv just be a cover)
and the turret would interfere unless its straight forward
