Thanks.
Ahhh ... that's because those "really" aren't AA weapons, they're HMGs. Yes ... I know 20mm's were originally AA weapons but the Swedish OOB (and from what I gather doctrine) doesn't view them that way. Older, manually aimed 20mm AA guns are fairly useless vs jet aircraft so they're used for anti-helo/anti-para work ... i.e. HMGs. Thus no 360 firing arc in WinSPMBT.
