Project Reality Forums

Famous soviet cannon was very popular in Korean and Vietnam war.

USSR also supplied these guns to many Arab countries and now they are used in modern conflicts as Syrian Civil War, Iraq civil war by SAA, FSA, ISIS. Also it used in Ukrainian civil war. Conceived as anti-aircraft gun, also used against infantry and vehicles.

This is much easier than my other project , I'll do it in parallel.

I have a few questions:

1. Possible set it on existing in the game Ural as it did with ZPU-23 ?
2. How much polys/tricounts should it take ?

Wow!! nice start,PR's first autocanon .

So you sayin that all those APCs don't have autocannons? Like the idea btw, would be usefull to get a chopper down quickly. Through I'm wondering about what kind of damages it could do to ground vehicles, would it be about LAT strenght or normal APC cannon strenght. Might also be one of the first things to quickly take out the flying tank (hind).

To LiamNL: I mean of this caliber.Yes APCs also have autocanons.sorry, my bad.

We also have the ZU-57-2, so you are still wrong

To answer OP questions:
Yes, we can add this to the Ural.
For tris count compare it to the ZIS-3 i would say. That has 4301. I guess 5000 would also be ok.
You gonna make only for adding on truck or also the towed version with wheels? Could add that to some maps as statics weapons maybe.

Gonna adding on truck, Is the game allows towed Cannon/HMG etc ?

armour penetration around 90-110 mm on distance 500m(0 degree). for APCs of 3-4 hits, for the tanks of 7-8 hits, but it is only my assumption

Sadly it doesn't allow weapon towing

But, could be a nice static emplacement similar to the ZPU quad AAA cannon on some maps I'm sure if you're willing to put time into the trailer as well. Totally up to you though

ok, I will do static version with wheels too

I plan that will sit on the gun two: one shooter, and he will have an optical sight, the left will sit gunner shield specifically cut for him, he will be able to spin in place and look in binoculars (as it on 3rd picture)

That thing weights: 4.6 tons. :O I had no idea such canons were that heavy.

Well, zu-23-2 is nearly 1000 kg (+ammo) and they mount that on Hilux pickups in real life ..

This would be a very coll addition to PR.

We really need some AA emplacements for factions like Taliban and FSA

It'd be great on Militia to help the ZIS-3.

Now I want the Gary to carry different weapons on a flat bed on the back (think making a platform between the sides for added height or removing the sides) with different names on the license plates to distinguish which weapon it has.

I like the idea of removing the big orange skip from the garry and replacing it with a platform. There should be plenty of UV space on the UV sheet after you remove the thing so I guess it should work fine. Also, the URAL we have for the ZSU is a typical military truck while the Syrian rebels are mainly just ''pissed of'' civilians. So it would be good to have more assets that were made for civilian use but ended up being in military use for FSA.
