Ramlaen Posted November 11, 2018 Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 It is an interesting concept, dunno how effective it would be in a real world scenario. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xlucine Posted November 11, 2018 Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 Some kind of APS-proof tank destroyer to take out IFV's & bigger tanks from the rear? I'm not sure what it provides that a butt-load of ATGM's (for equal weight as the 40mm & ammo) wouldn't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And honestly, in an urban combat scenario with light infantry, it's mobile light and cheap firepower Not everything needs to be whacked with a large calibre HEAT warhead.

Xlucine Posted November 17, 2018 Report Share Posted November 17, 2018 A ~10kg ATGM is a lot more mobile (and probably cheaper unless you're dealing with dozens of targets), and something like a small recoilless rifle will be cheaper and lighter. It is cute, but I can't see any problem it's particularly good at solving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sheer number of technicals indicates that light infantry support cannons are handy to have around. The Chinese are apparently fielding these Lynx things in significant numbers, so I guess they are finding them useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those cannons would be better on heavy/medium IFV chassis than on those 6x6 wheeled death traps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know much about the TOE of Chinese forces tho. Maybe Akula or someone else can weigh in on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xlucine Posted November 17, 2018 Report Share Posted November 17, 2018 You'd have to be pretty light for that to be the best you can get - it's possible to air-drop something with actual armour, and wheeled IFVs are a thing now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows? Chinese do things their own way. They have a SHORAD, MRLS, and I think a light howitzer on these things too. Myself, I'd bet on Mountain troops. I know they have places where even their medium tanks can't go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kal Posted November 18, 2018 Report Share Posted November 18, 2018 Most of China's contested territory is either mountains or islands. When i saw that lynx, i immediately thought how useful for either side it would've been for india/pakistan mountain skirmish. (Followed by, what a great platform for development of robotank. I wonder if logistics make it a cheaper robotank than reuse of excess type59 tanks) Belesarius 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xlucine Posted November 18, 2018 Report Share Posted November 18, 2018 For island's you'd be better off with an amphibious IFV, they'll both swim to shore - I'll be amazing if it gets beyond mountain troops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
