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:

  • Long range of 12 km
  • VT1 missiles come stock and they are very fast
  • Has access to gen 3 gunner thermals
  • Can fire all 8 missiles without reloading

Cons:

  • 8 mm of all-around armour is insufficient to stop even .50 cal machine guns
  • Search radar when unfolded sticks out quite far giving it a very tall profile
  • Lacks any sort of self-defence against ground targets
  • Lacks any sort of mobility offroad or uphill

History

The ItO 90M is based on the Sisu XA-180 platform and uses the French surface-to-air missile systen called CrotaleNG MOD.[1]

In 1980, Sisu produced an XA-180 prototype for testing. It competed against two other prototypes, but was the winner of the trials in 1983. in December 1983, the Finnish Army ordered a first batch of 50 XA-180s, of which 9 were reserved for UN. The vehicle proved itself successful and more were ordered by the army.[2]
