An anti-aircraft gun based on the elusive Chaffee. A quick vehicle with dangerous dual 40 mm automatic cannons. Flanking fans will love this vehicle!..

Eduard Borisov, lead artist

A whole range of interesting parts: spare barrels, a latticed cover on the exhaust pipe and numerous boxes for shells. The Chaffee tank base underwent significant changes for this anti-aircraftgun: the engine was moved closer to the center of the chassis. The dual automatic cannons were modeled completely and in great detail, including the parts the player can't see.

Thanks to your observations, we have corrected a bug in the width of the track shoulder on the Chaffee and this anti-aircraft gun – it will be fixed in the next update, thanks for your comments.
