Tank description:

The Ikv 65 Alt II is a Swedish tier 6 tank destroyer.In the mid-1960s, the Swedish Ministry of Defense laid out requirements for a new light tank. The lightly armored vehicle should combine high speed and maneuverability with powerful armament that would be sufficient to oppose modern tanks and provide fire support to the infantry. Landsverk developed several projects with both a rotating turret and a gun mounted on a stationary superstructure. They were essentially tank destroyers. Development of the project was discontinued at the drafting and modelling stage.The Ikv 65 still retains the "Glass cannon" traits from its predecessor ; It has quite great mobility and has small size that provides great camouflage rating, but also doesn''t have armor protection. This TD abandons the traits from the early Ikv project that classed it as an Infantry support SPG in real life, with powerful derp shot, but with awful gun handling. Instead, Ikv 65 offers much better gun handling and excellent penetration, in exchange for much lower alpha damage. That makes it the true sniper in its tier.The Ikv 65 Alt II leads to the Ikv 90 Typ B.
