TRIDON Mk2

Sight is supposed to be based on the Chess Hawkeye but it looks a lot like the SeaEagle FCEO-D. Not sure but shouldn’t matter much in-game
Ready rack (primary magazine) is technically only 30 rounds, with the remaining 70 rounds being situated in an intermediate megazine. Not sure at what rate the primary magazine is refilled

-20 degree depression is insane. Especially if you reverse it onto cover you could be a very hard target to one-shot.

Armament-wise, kind of? But different vehicles altogether.

I think I found the same article but I could be wrong the states that 70 rounds are automatically fed so they are pretty much ready to fire

They also advertise that 100 rounds are ready to fire with the ability to switch between said rounds

I kinda find it hard to believe the actual top speed of the truck is 80kph. Isnt that just the legal limit here in sweden?

Yea “Speed limiter” Wich means the truck is capable of running faster but its limited for safety reasons. I wonder if the military would remove such a limit during wartime emergencies.

War Thunder abides by speed limiters. So it’s unlikely to come disabled even if it could be.

+1, would be a good complement. Should also come with 3P or (LK 95) and not the currently inaccurate ABM LK 90 in the game.

I hate the 4km ish range of the 40mm proxi so much. Most heli can just stay outside that range. If this thing gets half of its supposed range it would at least perform better than the 2s38, anti air wise.

I would be more interested seeing it receive a more realistic sensor, one of its very main features is to shot down incoming missiles but in the game it is absolutely bad at doing so. For the range i agree it should be slightly buffed.

I think one of the mayor issues is that its the older version not used today that is in the game. They could easily implement the 3P but without every function until the game is at a state in which it can support the others.

I believe that the speed limiter is only an instrument gauge that the driver can engage if need be, it can hold up to 85 km/h, the truck itself can go faster if its disengaged. This is common on most trucks in scandinavia and specificly in the armed forces.

Truck driver here, to be more precise i was doing jet fueling stuff for the finnish air force during my conscription.
those speed limiters come straight from the factory and afaik there is no way to disable them even on army trucks and risk/benefit for some extra 10-20kmh on top of already going 90kmh wouldnt be worth it for the stuff these trucks are meant to do.

I cant talk for combat vehicles like MRAPs and stuff but this being an anti air system on a truck it should be made with same standards as any other truck on the road in the EU.

Stupid question, but isn’t this made by BAE Systems? You know? British Aerospace Systems. So wouldn’t this be a Great Britain vehicle? Why is it being suggested for Sweden?

Because its made from Specifically BAE Systems, Bofors the Swedish part, thats the simplest explenation. Since Bofors is still located in sweden and has the closest ties to sweden

Swedish engineers, Swedish sub-companies to BAE, everything about it is Swedish, just like the CV90.
