"Lion" SPAA(light) on Amored Platform (Skyranger on Boxer inspired)
The Lion SPAA is Hil-Steel's answer to the aerial threats of the 21st century.
The System offers SHORAD and Point Defense abilities with highly capable Radar and automated fire control, on Hil-Iron's new Amored Platform vehicle.
It offers not only great mobility on and off Road but also an all around protection against 14.5-20mm Weapons and artillery splinters, with frontal amor-protection beeing able to withstand up to 35mm Rounds.
The unmanned Turret is able to fight aerial threats with the new IRIS-T SSLM Missle or it's powerfull 35mm revolver cannon.
The 3 chamberd 35mm revolver cannon has a theoretical fire rate of ~980 Rounds per Minute and reaches a Muzzel velocity of ~1400 m/s. It is able to to utilize the specially developed HVAPDS-T(HighVelocityAmorPiercingDiscardingSabot-Tracer), HVPFHE(HighVelocityProximityFusedHighExplosive) and HVTFHEF(HighVelocityTimeFusedHighExplosiveFragmentation) Rounds. The Cannon as also highly effective in Ground Combat.
Additionally the System is equipped with 4 Launch tubes for IRIS-T SSLM (Infra Red Imaging System-Thrust vector controlled Small Surface Launched Missle) Missles, a highly capable shortrange SAM.
A full set of Controlls is in the Game.
With AG1 active, the turret is fully automated, while AG2 gives you the ability to correct the automatic fire controll solution. AG3 gives you full controll of the Turret, so it should not be active at the same time as AG1+AG2.
There is a version with complete Interior comming up, but this put's an higher strain(+2600Perdormace Cost) on the PC, my old PC does not like this. The light version(1860 Performance Cost) Lacks the interior but has a reduced, but working Gunsight and drivers position.
As you can propably guess this is heavily inspired by Rheinmetalls Skyranger 30 /Skyranger 35, but I feelt free to combine elements of Both. Hence the Lion carrys both, the 35mm Cannon and the 4xFIM92 Stinger(becomming IRIS-T SSLM) launcher of the Skyranger 30. the same goes for the Amored Platform inspired by the Boxer AFV.

@UmbrellaCorporation its an easy thing. Maybe I can have a look into it later. Could you link me Platform and missles?
@UmbrellaCorporation Well it´s certainly do able but as I would need a whole new, tracked Platform it is not a top priority for me right now.
