Looks like anti-personnel to me...not much in AH terms.

No open cockpit, wouldn't be as vulnerable to Aircraft guns as the Osti/wirblewind.

Would be interesting to see how it would play out.

The tank in the pic is based on the Canadian Ram. It is a Skink AA mounting 4 20mm Polsten cannons. It was shipped to the ETO in 1945 and used operationally by the 1st Canadian Army. With few areial targets it was used against enemy ground forces.
