Default KVP Zubr Hovercraft!

Hi,

First off - I love the new hovercraft icons (and class!)

I've always been fascinated by combat hovercraft since reading about the PACV in Vietnam and my first icon editing attempt was making a PACV icon (the new PACV icon is much better).

I have a quick suggestion regrading the Russian KVP Zubr hovercraft (Obat11 Unit 202)armament. The Zubir is armed with
two AK-630 6 barrel Gatling type autocannons, rather than the twin barrel 2A38 30mm as on the Tunguska SPAA. The AK-630 has a slant range of 4000m and rate of fire of 5000rpm (double the 2A38). Suggested stats for the AK-630:

Weapon: 30mm AK-603
Weapon Class: 4 FLAK/AA
Accuracy: 18
Weapon Size: 6
Warhead Size: 2
HE Penetration:
HE Kill: 29
Weapon Range: 80

As the AK-603 is primary a AAA weapon and is radar targeted I would consider giving the Zubir a FC: 125 RF: 8 and a Stab of
at least 3. Also probably an EW of 5 or so. 6000 30mm rounds are carried.

The Zubir also carries 4 "quad" 9K34 launchers firing the 9M36 Strela-3 SAM with a total of 32 missiles carried.
So weapon slot 3 should have weapon number 131: 9M36 Strela-3 HE ammo: 32.

The Zubir also carried 2 A-22 Ogon 140mm MLRS firing either frag or incendiary rockets. The launcher has 22 tubes, a max range of 4500m, minimum range of 800m. 132 rockets are carried.

I would consider the following stats:

Weapon: 140mm A-22 Ogon
Weapon Class: 3 Team Weapon
Accuracy: 1
Weapon Size: 4
Warhead Size: 6
HE Penetration: 2
HE Kill: 23
Weapon Range: 95

Finally the Zubir is also operated by the Greek Navy (4 units since 2001).

Just some ideas!

Thanks,

Adrian

Default Re: KVP Zubr Hovercraft!

Somehow..( I think I know why......)...the Aist ended up added to the Greek OOB instead of the Zubr at some point in the past and when I was researching the ships I overlooked that we had the wrong one in the Greek OOB. Should be Zubr 2001 not Aist 2003
