If anyone sees any information on the time it takes to reload the new version of the Gecko, please let us know.

It was five minutes with the 9M33

December 13, 2024 : "The Marine Corps has fielded a mobile, drone-killing air defense system to its 3rd Littoral Anti-Air Battalion in Hawaii, the service announced, with the system expected to achieve initial operational capability later today. " ~ Inside Defense

The system in question is MADIS (Marine Air Defense Integrated Systems) -- it uses the JLTV as the base platform and it appears the platform that was IOCed is:

AN/MSY2(v)2 (aka MADIS MK2) which is the dedicated C-UAS configuration featuring 360° #AESA radar, EO/IR, EW suite, & 30x113mm gun + two stinger missiles.

I may have covered this earlier in the thread. IDK.
