Model 28B Air Defense Vehicle (Military Landcraft)

The Model 28B is produced by Pegasus Industries of Overnale for export to a variety of local markets. Based on the hull of the Model 28 APC, the main change is the addition of a larger engine, needed to cope with the increased vehicle weight resulting from provision for carrying fairly large quantities of ammunition for the autocannon. A radar system for target acquisition missile direction has also been added. The main drawback of the design is that the amphibious capability is greatly reduced. The manufacturer does not recommend attempting amphibious operation without offloading most of the 4cm ammunition and all four of the SAMs. It should be noted that the missiles each cost Cr142,000, making a full ammunition load worth several times the value of the vehicle.
