   I know the osty has better range but can u imagine those 4 20mm canons firing!, heck i can't hit a thing over about 1.5k in the osty anyway, maybe it would be cool to have one of these in addation to our 2 AA vehicles

That vehicle could have even more deflection kills at closer ranges than ostwind can..

The 20mm Flakvierling quad mount was the best short-range AAA until the Soviet 23mm Shilka many years later.
