T55AA

[Dubieman]

Hey all,
I'm not an addon maker even though I'd like to try someday, but I came up with this idea for now.

The res needs an AA gun. I thought about a BMP with AA weapons, but it'd be kinda weird and I don't think putting green stripes on a shilka will do this idea any justice.

I was thinking that you could use the existing T55 and just eliminate the barrel on the main gun and get rid of the machine gun. Then take a spinning cannon and put it in its place. One cannon I liked was the AH1 cobra's or a more defined MI24 cannon. Basically just a three barreled spinning AA cannon.

so, you just want a hind or cobra cannon on a t55
i think a vulcan cannon would be good too

[Dubieman]

Well I didn't think the res would have lotz of sophisticated weapons like six barreled miniguns but I like the look or idea of the three barrel design, it would seem to fit the T55 I guess.

Ohh yea it might need a little radar thing on top you know to detect aircraft.

Someone could make the ZSU-57x2, which is a T-54/55 chassis with a pair of 57mm AA guns mounted in a larger turret...it's an old unit and I think it would fit in very well with the Resistance theme.

check out the FDF mod, 1.3. They have a similiar, althought more modern version of that beast (pretty much looks the same tho)

Someone could make a Flakpanzer from WW2 for the Guerrillas but you'd have'ta give it a jamming script if the barrels spins constantly for say 40 secs to simulate the age of it. Just a suggestion mind!

i think its called the marksman or something

No, the Marksman is a more advanced AA unit used by the FDF. But the FDF Mod does include a ZSU-57, in Finnish and Russian versions ;D .

[Dubieman]

I like the ZSU-57x2...
A big ugly armored square with some long guns. Fits the resistance....

I guess I could grab FDF mod...
I'm just suggesting it, not out of need for it. I thought it'd be a cool standalone addon for the resistance.

Wow - a five man crew !

Ah the fifties - back when manpower was cheap and hardware was expensive !

Didn't somone make a truck with a ZU-23 on the back somewhere? That'd work pretty well for a ressistance AA emplacment, wouldn't it?

[SilentHunter_764]

A truck with a AA gun sounds awesome,

take the PV3S and take the covering off and put something like a couple of .50 cals.

FDF Mod again  

[1shottokill]

As you said Silent Hunter you could rip the canvas off a PV3S and put the dual 50. cals that you get on the Mark II PBR or there is a perfectly good Mg42 addon out there you could use that.

A Zil-131 with a ZSU-23-2 on the backis included, you could probably modify it so it had ressetance markings (With the author's premison, of course)
