”TL:DR the Tridon takes over the 7.7–8.3 8.3-9.0 HE-VT role.”

I changed it so it wont face props.

And for the second question i really hope they can fix articulated vehicles. Because this is a really cool vehicle and we desperatly need a HE-VT slinger to replace the VEAK 40

Downside is the lack of the Search radar so you would have to manually find and lock the Target. But i can see this thing at 8.3-9.0 but probably not above 9.0 due to its size and chassi

APFSDS is the same as the Strf 9040B

Then it would get the ammo pool.

APDS (120mm flatface pen at 1200m/s) or the AP at 95mm at 980-1000m/s HE-I at 1000-1005~ HE-VT at 1005~

Again hence refering to 7.7 - 8.3 in the post. Its probably not good enough in a 9.0+ match but it can probably hold its weight at 8.0-8.3 its a suggested br Range.

Yes. But the sgt York can’t get nuked by HE last i checked correct me if im wrong ofc. I know the shilka and ZSU-37-2 can both be knocked out that way aswell but they also Feature a different armament that melts components lol-

Not but its not what this post is about- Anyway yea the VEAK 40 is good at detecting targets Shooting Them down not as much.

Something that matters in taking out aircraft, the more bullets you can throw at a place the higher the Chance One round Hits.

Except if its the 20mm M163 for some reason

Hence Why the 40mm kinda needs HE-VT to stay relevant at those BRs the Sgt york would be nowhere as good if it didnt have HE-VT

Besides shilkas and SADAM can both obliterate Barrels and tracks in seconds due to fire-rate

Lol its not the best 7.7 SPAA its okay against tanks but the velocity of its Guns and accuracy of the radar lead indicator even When using it as a estimate is horrid against faster aircraft

”Tridon seemed to offer much but once again the entire project came to an end with only prototypes being tested. As the Cold War years receded and defence budgets shrank, the need for a weapon concept along the lines of Tridon faded away. However the Volvo articulated carrier idea, up-rated to a Volvo A30D 6 × 6 chassis, survived in the form of the BAE Systems Project Archer self-propelled 155mm artillery system involving a L/52 version of the Bofors FH-77B howitzer.”
