Roland Flak Batterie
The Flugabwehrpanzer Roland is a Mobile SAM (surface to air missile) platform that combines the might of the Roland SAM with the mobility of the Marder Chassis.
In Team Yankee
The SAM Ying to the SPAAG Yang of the Gepard, the Roland is a Decent SAM Platform for the West Germans.
Now, some of you may be wondering why you would ever take the Roland since the Gepard is arguably the best AA in the game, and that is completely justified. The Roland's sole missions is to "Shoot down Planez". You cannot engage anything other than enemy aircraft. Luckily that is something that the Roland excels at.
