Ystervark

Notes: This is a South African self-propelled antiaircraft gun, based on an armored and mine-protected version of the SAMIL 20 truck. This vehicle has a much higher and beefier suspension than the basic truck, leading to better cross-country performance, and the vehicle is used to protect truck convoys as well as for antiaircraft use. The Ystervark has an armor rating of twice the highest face against mines, and the suspension rating is one higher against mines. The sides of the fighting compartment are droppable if necessary, but the fighting compartment has no overhead protection.

Zumlac

Notes: This South African SPAAG is based on an armored and mine-protected version of the SAMIL 100 truck. It has an armored cab and flatbed floor for the crew, and mounts a ZU-23-2 antiaircraft gun on the flat rear section. The vehicle is considered to have an armor value of twice the highest face against mines, and the suspension rating is one higher against mines. The cab has two entry doors on each side, with two sitting in the front and three in the rear. Half of the flatbed section is taken up by the gun, and most of the rest is taken up by large lockers for ammunition, camouflage nets, and crew equipment. Note that when operating the gun, the crew has no side, front, or rear armor protection.
