Spetz Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 What about adding the Oerlikon Contraves (now Rheinemetall) GDF-005 Twin AA Gun to the game? It is used (or was during the time period) by several countries for years (Canada, Sweden, Switzerland, Spain etc). I'm a former gunner for this system, so the info if fairly accurate. 1. It's a great weapon, can be remote fired by the SkyGuard radar system or fired by the operator. 2. The operator can fire the cannon electrically with preprogrammed burst duration via control yoke (up to 3 seconds IIRC) or manually (Fire until the autoloaders kick in) via foot pedal. 3. Rate of fire is 1100 rds per minute, 280 rds stored onboard (156 rds ready with another 124 in the autoloaders). 4. Several types of rounds available (AHEAD, TPT, HEI, etc) 5. Up to 2 wpn systems per Skyguard if the radar is used (Connected via line) 6. Engage fixed wing A/C at 3.5km, Helo's at 4.5km, ground about 3km. 7. Traverse rate of 360' in about 3 seconds. 8. Laser ranger with lead angle computation. Just a suggestion..
