M247 Sergeant York

Its as derpy as it looks

Really? We're really doing this? Fine.

The M247 is a SPAAG (Self-Propelled Anti-Air Gun) developed by the US Army as part of the DIVAD (DIVision Air Defense) Program. In theory, the M247 was going to replace the M163 VADS as the US Army's primary self propelled Anti-Air platform, but theories are such fragile things.

The M247 is armed with twin 40MM Bofors AA gun linked to an innovative search and track radar system in a friggin' massive turret balanced on top of a M48 chassis.

The Stats (from Bizzaro world)

In the Team Yankee Universe, apparently the M247 didn't turn out to be a dismal failure and in fact was well on its way to replacing the M163.

IRL

One of the very few surviving examples

This thing was a failure, it was lined up to shoot down a drone but instead locked onto a stadium seating where several politicians and military procurment officers were seated. The guns on the damn thing were so old and unkempt it failed to fire. I am not sure if that is bad or good?

Presumable the Reason the York shows up is that the project was canceled the same year the Cold War goes hot: 1985. As the M163 VADS was always suppose to be a stop gap after the MIM 46 Mauler was canceled, the logic might have been they needed to get some kind of heavy AA SPAAG onto field: ASAP. Hence why the York appears.
