Sweden has a bigger Navy with heavy firepower and some ”battleships” aswell. One of the reasons Germany doubted to invade apart from Us blowing the Iron mines

Swedish Naval L/70s used the HE-VT before the army did
Wasn’t it like 10-15 years before as well?

The issue is this list doesnt name any platforms besides volvo 726.
The only useful mention I found:
This one mentions some B variant for light vehicles
can you send me a link for swedissh naval?

The B variant is just the L/70 optamised for use in custom mounts such as IFVs etc.
If you want to know specific platforms you probably have to look at each vehicle individually instead of the gun itself.
And even the B variant has 3 subsets.
Uh, I might be mistaken, but aren’t chambers for L/60 and L/70 different?
AFAIK modern 40mm (L/70) uses longer rounds because it has bigger chamber, therefore round used in L/70 cannot be used in L/60s?
The VEAK has the L/70 gun and in-game fires the ammunition intended for the L/60 gun giving it lower exit velocity. There are modification kits so that the L/70 can fire the L/60 ammo but as far as i know those conversion kits were only used for training and exercise.
And even then it still should have higher exit velocity than the actual L/60 gun and ammo (which it doesn’t in-game).
honestly I gave up hope about the veak even though it was one of my favorite tanks. Same thing for the 9040Bill, but at least that one got some pictures that might get it’s launcher rotation back.
At this point I am expecting them to add the mowag shark with Trinity turret before they make the veak playable as an AA.
Haven’t touched it since they took away the HE-VT. Though, I understand why it had it removed and agree with the removal.

This is the VEAK 40 in its current state- i would be saying its a joke but against aircraft it is a joke.

Seeing as VEAK is 7.7 in GRB, i will trade you “extremely underpowered” VEAK for UK Bosvark or French AMX 13 DCA.
In my experience this thing is a great SPAA platform, and decently fast
The AMX 13 DCA 40? That thigh is just like if the Lvkv 42 had an actual ammo capacity and accurate ammunition. and more all-round protection. Its not as small sure but its def more survivable for its tier. Besides both vehicles arent facing jets, or well. The bosvark could but i find it a heck of alot easier to use.
I enjoy the Bosvark as well. Soviet 23mm is just a good time. But with Britain it always comes back to the whole Bosvark and Skink being 5.3 - nothing (apart from the total chads loading HE-VT in the M109 and G6) until Falcon @ 8.3, first radar being the Marksman @ 8.3. In that sense, the VEAK still looks pretty good. Though I’d take the world wrecker over all of them (China’s WZ305) for taking air out, even with no radar.

This Proves HE-VT is king in all its forms up untill 9.0-onwards, and the removal of it from a Medium calibre AA impacts the performance of it so badly. The Bkan 1C is such a superior “SPAA” up untill the “Leopard 2 marksman” due to the big Area of affect.
This is why i think the 120mm Lvakan SPAA system would dominate SPAA duties. Given its HE-VT and Fire-rate. Im just waiting for trailers to become “Legal” to suggest.

I could se the Bosvark being 6.0-6.3 SPAA wiseeeee- The skink noway, its just a Crusader mk II but different. so really it should be 5.0 if anything.
Anyway off topic-
