The Bofors 40mm L/70 seems horrid. Why its not fixed yet?

So i went to the forum for the first time because i wanted to see if i should try sweden and saw a person use this in a post, and it got me thinking about how is this even allowed to happen and not even be fixed-?!

Why is there such a huge difference here?? Honestly, its really off. I haven’t even unlocked any of the 40mm L/70 stuff yet, but from what I can see, both the VEAK 40 and Lvkv 40 are underperforming—like, really badly.

Also If there is a “bug report” for what a year or something? why hasnt it been fixed yet??

Ive been away for a while and id like somebody to explain… Also hi, first post.

Sweden seems intresting i particularly find the 20mm Car funny, but why is the only SPAA in sweden the single 40mm cannon? It seems rlly bad to not have anything like everybody else with the 4x 12.7s or the Wirbelwind hehehe

There is so many issues with ammunition, has this always been the case? Or has it only started happening recently?

Also why are there infantry, isnt there enlisted?

Sweden is OP they dont need better stuff

Uuuuh- They have No heavy tanks or even any M18s or anything. They have a chaffee So thats good. I heard the Strv 42 DT is good. But aside from that the TT doesent seem that good?

“From a freind hehe”

Nah The swedish TT is great. The SAP is good enough for anything at their Tiers and the L/60 Anti II is great aswell. Aside from that its not special
(Even though the Lvakan 48 isnt supposed to have SAP)

Top tier not that i play it is among the best in the game. low-mid tiers are alright. Not amazing like the US but its okay

And don’t both vehicle use L/60?
I’m not sure, it seems like VEAK already can use L/70, lvkv 42 is exactly L/60

Lvkv 42 Uses the 40mm Lvakan 48 L/70

Lvkv 42 Is guessed to use:
HE-I 1005m/s
AP-T 980~ m/s

Documented ammunition velocity is 1000~ m/s back when the project was wrapped up and finalised, it was documented on file.

It was later used as a test-bed for the VEAK 40 Radar:

Lvkv 42 W Radar

Veak 40 had three ammunition types:
HE-I 1000 m/s
AP-T 1025 m/s
APDS-T 1200 m/s

VEAK 40
