Usage in battles
Describe the tactics of playing in the vehicle, the features of using vehicles in the team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view but instead give the reader food for thought. Describe the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).
Pros and cons
Pros:
- Amazing vertical guidance for both main gun and machine gun
- Magazine fed gun instead of single shells like on the CV9040 variants
- Engine block at the front of the vehicle can tank some damage
- APFSDS has decent penetration which allows the tank to penetrate the sides and backs of most tanks
Cons:
- Thermals and APFSDS are Rank III modifications which require some time to get
- .50 cal fire can penetrate the back of the vehicle
- Mediocre acceleration, takes rather long to get to the top speed
- Has only one turret-fixed 7.62 mm machine gun, rendering it useless against targets when the turret is knocked out
History
The CV9030FIN was an export version of the Stridsfordon 90, made by Sweden as their project for creating a universal IFV expanded more and more. This found many customers around the world like in Brazil where they also use the Stridsfordon 90.
The CV90 Mk I was the base for the next development, the CV90 Mk II. The Mk II was produced in three variants: the CV9030 CH (Switzerland) IFV and COM, and the CV9030 FIN (Finland) IFV. Both contracts were won in competition against other IFVs. One significant difference between the two variants was hull size: the Swiss variant is 100 mm higher over the front, with an additional 70 mm over the combat compartment at the rear. Another difference is the Mk II's partial digitization and built-in Health & Unit Monitoring System (HUMS), along with interactive manuals and instructions. The CV90 Mk II's standard armament is the Mk44 Bushmaster II autocannon.
