TEL HASHOMER, ISRAEL - MARCH 2: In this photo provided by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF). Modern self-propelled anti-aircraft weapons increasingly rely more on heat-seeking missiles, and radar and infrared sensor. But the small shells can’t penetrate the armor of a tank, and they aren’t as well armored as one. That firepower is also quite deadly when turned against infantry and light vehicles.
Those cannons boast ultra-rapid rates of fire to shred low-flying aircraft, or in the 21 st century, cruise missiles and drones. That means they’re likely to be closer to the frontline than self-propelled howitzers. Self-propelled anti-aircraft guns like the legendary Soviet ZSU-23/4 “Shilka” (armed with quadruple 23-millimeter cannons) or the German Gepard (twin 35-millimeter guns) are designed to provide low-altitude air defense for advancing columns of armored vehicles. Tracks, armor and wicked looking cannons? A tank, these do not make by themselves.
