==IRL== [[File:Zsu-57-2.jpg|300px|thumb|right|An Iraqi ZSU, ready to shoot down some Skyhawks like its 1973.]] The ZSU-57-2 had a similar development history to the more famous [[ZSU 23-4 Shilka]], to fill a need for SPAAGs that could hit harder than older machinegun mounts, but the Soviets quickly found the weapon to be lacking due to its lack of search and fire-control radar, inadequate rate of fire, and slow traverse. They were quickly replaced by Shilkas starting in the 1960s. A handful of other countries adopted and then replaced their ZSUs as well, though Chinese-manufactured versions ended up selling relatively well in the Middle East, particularly with new proximity fuse ammunition to turn them into modernized flak cannons. They also saw more limited action in Vietnam and the Yugoslav wars. {{Clear}} {{Iranian Forces in Team Yankee}} {{Iraqi Forces in Team Yankee}} [[Category:Team Yankee]] [[Category:Vehicles]]
