That inner wall that you have seen behind the driver that's actually really just a wall, since the Vilkas is based on the GTK Boxer, which has a modular design which means you can pick off the back part of the vehicle and replace it with a mission specific module, such as APC, IFV, armored ambulance etc. module. The Vilkas is a really interesting vehicle, I'm glad to see it in the game.

@mitchellmcguire11212 ай бұрын
Spikes are made to be long range weapons. You can look up the real world weapons systems from the game and see most of the stats you need as far as range. They are basically like a ground vehicle launched Javelin missile made for long ranges (up to 20km). They have a listed minimum range of up to half a km on some variants. Take the Vilkas in a sim battle and watch the Spikes decimate. I learned this recently. Most other maps are too small to get the best use of them and the more “realistic” models help the damage. The Vilkas has seen me survived to the end with multiple kills more than any other lightly armored vehicle I’ve used to date
